Canadian Pacific 2816, "The Empress", steaming across Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Illinois

The newly formed Candian Pacific Kansas City Limited is running its 4-6-4 Hudson on the Final Spike Steam Train between Calgary and Mexico City, marking a very special and historic railroading event. I was lucky enough to follow the train between St. Paul, Minnesota, and Bensenville, Illinois, capturing these videos along the way.

Great video! I'd meant to catch it as it passed through southeast WI but couldn't get there - so your video is the next best thing!

Stunning photography of the CP 2816 and it's matching passenger train!

Nice work! Hoping to see it pass by this coming Wednesday. I just hope the rain holds out long enough....

What a treat to see a steam engine in colour with really good video quality. This will be one of my reference videos for my model railroad. Thanks a million!

I’ve been searching for a week for that Caledonia shot, watching every video hoping to see it from the other side of the tracks.

Glad you were able to find it! That was one of my favorite locations of the trip.
