    I love the CP Holiday train. The kids cheering is so heartwarming, never hear that much anymore for a train. Imagine being the engineer It must be so nice to feel that feeling that all these people are here just to watch *you* go by on *your* train

    Seeing the Canadian Pacific Holiday train in real was a treat that holds a deep meaning for me. I was able to see it twice actually, the second time it was roaring by to go to its next town I was very excited!
    I was hoping it would be on this channel and I’m glad it is!
    Mr. Corkyn I salute you! 🫡🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

    I missed the holiday train this year when it came through Detroit from Windsor 😞I saw it last year for the first time. They had just brought it back. It had stopped for some years due to Covid. I plan on going yearly as long as it continues to run. Thx Virtual Railfan for capturing it this year 🙂

    After the Holiday Train reaches Detroit after coming through the tunnel under the Detroit river, they stop in Allen Park I think and one of the cars has a drop down stage and they usually have some musical performance and then they move on their way.

    8:38 CP Holiday Train in Elkhart! There are actually two of them, 2246 travels mostly in the United States while 2249 travels mostly through Canada. There were no performance stops between Detriot and Chicago, but plenty of people still came to see the train here. Revelstoke will see the holiday train on December 15.

    17:38 Prior to 9/11, when I needed a "mental health day" to decompress, I would go to the airport and sit on the concourse. I would watch planes take off and land while also watching people getting on and off planes. Now, you basically can't get beyond the ticket counter without a ticket. Sigh.
