CP 3716 and The Kettle Valley Steam Railway Christmas Train

Steam locomotive 2-8-0 No. 3716 conducted a handful of Christmas runs in Summerland, BC over
December 19th-20th weekend. The trips were a complete success and a good time was had by all. Make sure to check out the Kettle Valley Steam Railway for yourself! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

That train was known as the Museum Train back in the late 70s and traveled all over the Provence pulling a bunch of cars with museum displays in them. I remember how it woke me up the morning it pulled into Kimberley. What a nice sound to wake up to.

Excellent coverage!!!

[@jieling3377]

Nice video work, more people should see it is nice,

[@Kvr3005]

Their reasoning was that Canada exchanged a lot of freight traffic with the united states and that most of the railway locomotive shops were subsideries of us companies.

Neptune Terminals in North Vancouver if I am not mistaken... was trucked up back in October. They had it fired up while we were there too

Nothing says Christmas like a steam engine.

Rear end train markers turned the wrong way. Should be green to front and both sides, red to the rear only.

To bad they didnt have more trackage.

[@maxm2317]

Caliber410 It'd be nice if they had the entirety of the line restored so they could start up a profitable freight business. In fact, I once had a dream that, in an alternate timeline, the Kettle Valley Steam Railway had managed to save the entirety of the old Kettle Valley Railway. They also had a profitable freight business, and they interchanged with Canadian Pacific on a regular basis. Heck, CP even let them run main line excursions on special occasions.
