The Good, Bad, and QUIRKY of Canadian Railways (Canada Day Special)

Happy Canada Day for all my Canadian subscribers! As a small celebratory video, i decided to put together another installment of "QUIRKY RAILROAD PAINT JOBS" highlighting the most unusual, interesting or downright ugly paint jobs on Canadian Railways. Hope y'all enjoy.

[@twiellie]

Happy Canada Day, everyone! Happy to be a part of our railfan community! ❤️🤍❤️🇨🇦

[@AndrewTheRocketCityRailfan4014]

This was fun. I wish we Americans treated our trains with this much respect too, but unfortunately our government spends way too much on highways that suffer way more fatalities every year than passenger trains do. Happy Canada Day my man!

**CPKC**

[@videonut11]

We’re the same. We both love well-planned and simply neat-o graphic design. We don’t love the bad side of it. Keep on with it. I love this stuff! Thank you.

[@andrerenault]

There are still a couple of CMQ painted locos running. I smile every time I see them

[@marcleslac2413]

I saw one at st luc today

[@wceyuki]

How about CP 3005? the ex-E&N geep that got rebuilt into that MONSTROSITY OF A MOW UNIT

[@harrisonofcolorado8886]

He covered it in a previous video

[@the_atsf_railfan2926]

Fun fact i actually caught this engine before 4:30 you forgot to say that its also missing its front CN logo as well, its one of the most cursed CN locomotives i ever seen

[@iftheseoldbeastscouldtalk7796]

Managed to roll up to Canada a day before Canada day. I guess I had never really thought about it until I got here.

[@Elliottblancher]

The FPA-4s that got the blue logo on the front actually look cool

[@railfandepotproductions]

I like the old rocky Mountaineer paint scheme

[@XavierTheRailfanner_]

Bro that "WHAT" Made me die

[@BNSFTrains10]

4:12 as yes some of the Illinois Central SD70 Units were given the CN Logo in the back the units were 1022, 1027, 1010 and some others

[@dipstiksubaru3246]

I BUILT THOSE GO TRANSIT CARS AND CAB CARS!!!

[@RockyMountainproductions2023]

happy Canada day👍

[@iatif1995]

I’ve seen autoracks with lazy ahh logos like using the most basic font for CN and using duct tape for CN logos

[@SilverThunder710]

0:33 Train crews: Am I a joke to you?

[@Anfidurl]

4:06 what is this? It was clearly an alco S series switcher at one time, but I see no reporting marks no number and I'm so confused.

[@falfan7.62]

Mans said “growed” instead of “grew” That aside awesome content as always!!!

[@minnesotarailfan12]

Although let’s not diss the ECM label, it’s for a good cause at least.

[@SCFR_Guest5]

3:19 looks like rotten cheese

[@SleepTrain456]

Now that you mention it, this locomotive is rather moldy!

[@BNSF4706]

6:05 Halton...why? (reference from every GE locomotive described in 10 words or less)

[@ZombieSlayer-dj3wb]

Happy canada and the cpkc would look better with the awr paint job

[@TheQuebecRailfan]

as a canadian, i can confirm canadian locomotive is weird, and even lying to us, cus there is a loco in the yard as QGRY 2006, it said its a GP38-2, but its a GP35 FROM EX CONRAIL

[@wakun6784]

Ha, I've seen 4726 in real life, shes a beaut.

[@coltfaze599]

In the first 20 seconds of the video you just described AMERICA 🇺🇸 Union Pacific “the Great Big Rolling railroad.”

[@BizarreAdventuresYouTube]

CBNS and DEVO are also Canadian railroads the old CBNS scheme looks much better the the current crap.

[@marcleslac2413]

Railroad electrification in canada: I am evolving, just backwards.

[@arkie74]

...Canada has to buy and press. meaning till it re paints, they are gonna be faded and beat up a little. canadian locos are a little odd and always have. but it aint what she looks like, but if she can pull 80 cars on its own ...let it ride. she does her job so ..yeah lol.

[@ZetaRanger79]

No CP Rail 5447? Or were you already too traumatized?

[@HangEagle]

Illinois central. More like identity crisis

[@TheSmallestShayInExistance]

i shat on the sd60f and am fleeing the continent, you will never find me

[@thedesigner00]

I hope CP(KC) 8559 is in here lol

[@SamutheHamu]

Happy Canada day guys!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️🤍🤍❤️🤍🤍❤️❤️❤️ P.S. don’t blame the executives, blame the workers the voted for the CPKC livery

[@georgiatrainz4517]

1:02 I see what you did with that Canadian flag style! Happy Canada day btw

[@NASCOrailfan]

Truly amazing always love these! Happy late Canada day

[@AtlanticPancakes]

Great video! I'm an American, but still, Happy Canada Day! edit: what's the name of the music (or the version) that starts in the background at 2:49?

[@orlandorailfanproductions2010]

What is Canadian day is it like the Canada version of the 4th of July?

[@SleepTrain456]

Basically, yes! It was when Canada was formed! Thanks for asking! For more information: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_Day

[@HistoryForEveryoneProductions]

I’m American but eh happy Canadian day

[@LMLRailfan]

Happy Canada Day! Also where’s the Wheatland Express Ex-NS GP38-2?

[@ThePTBRULES]

Hello Top Hat

[@0fficialdregs]

i only love the locomotive variates they have. i been looking to buy Canadian modified cab locomotives for my model railroad

[@videonut11]

What’s with the CN logos above the front number boards? Guess they want people to really know and remember that’s a CN unit. (5:11)

[@gilbertporter4992]

You forgot New Brunswick Southern and a few short lines in Canada.

[@mickycarter2365]

its good to see the Quirky paint jobs of Canadian Railroad complains.

[@owenjones9659]

4:07 someone tell me what this eye sore is

[@ThePTBRULES]

Battery locomotives are just slugs with Batteries instead of Concrete.

[@KCDash4400cw]

Happy Canadian day

[@Operator1652]

first

[@SuperOwensTrainsYT]

5:46 uhm 3015 is behind that

[@redtrainproductions]

5:20 why the hell did they leave the word “locomotive” on the side of 4910?? I think we already know it’s a locomotive. Also I see this ugly ass thing leading my local all the time

[@LincLux]

I’m just excited to see the Northlander come back

[@RailfanKnexified]

4:19 to 4:22 had me laughing!! Also can we notice 4719's white stripe? Why is it up to the cab? That isn't normal.

[@SleepTrain456]

This is quite a comical look into the various paint schemes of Canadian locomotives! Thanks for making this!

[@RoyalHudson2860]

9:33 I actually have seen a CMQ barn locomotive and that was 9011

[@Railroadracer49]

2:49 where’s this cover of yoshi’s island from?

[@videonut11]

The MMA livery doesn’t look bad to me. In fact, I like it. Looks like it was taken from Wisconsin Central’s livery. (1:08)

[@canuckster24]

I don't understand what's wrong at about 3:00

[@TheRealRajo6466]

Basically, the rear numbers on that locomotive is literally a CP style The numbers on the hood, not numberboards itself

[@BNSF4706]

4:21 Halton: then u have the other one that looks like AAAAA--

[@the_autism_express]

Happy Canada day!!!

[@TheBurlingtonTransitFan]

Which version of O Canada did you use?

[@JChristiansenLuckythebrony2222]

5:47 I don't see what the problem is, the sticker just wanted to make a call back to the steam era.

[@vaclavmacgregor2464]

Hello and welcome happy Canada day to you all.What is your favorite Candian Railroad?

[@vaclavmacgregor2464]

Canadian Pacific by far!!!

[@kansascityshuffle8526]

Calling a cp 9000 dependable is just wrong.

Canadian locomotives for Canada Day. The good bad quirky of Canadian railways. Some of them are ugly. SOO Line is actually an american subsidiary of CPKC. The Central Maine and Quebec Railway and Expressway locomotives and the patched locomotives get some attention too. The Rocky Mountaineer and Go Transit arent safe from here either. Funny

[@fluttershytheequestrianrai6022]

3:50 I saw those units on the internet as images. Union Pacific is declaring a farewell to their sd70ms and I'm already seeing videos of them in youtube as they're being put into storage. Already, some of them have been sold to other railroad companies.

[@NeebingEast]

1:40 that’s been repainted into a solid black with a G3 locomotive now
