- Canadian Pacific 2816, a restored steam locomotive from 1930 is embarking on a journey from Calgary, Alberta to Mexico City. In the words of CPKC:
"On April 14, 2023, we drove a ceremonial Final Spike completing that continental connection. We look forward to proudly celebrating that historic railway moment with a tour starring the 2816, honouring our history and looking forward to an exciting future filled with opportunities for our railroaders, customers and communities.
This 2816 steam tour will bring the story of our uniquely North American railway’s history and compelling future to life for rail fans and visitors across our network."

As always, thanks for coming along for the ride!

A very nice Video, Thanks for posting it.
Thank you. It was fun.
We need more steam engines
Agreed. Amazing machines.
VERY nice to see you both "out and aboot"! Sorry, couldn't resist.
Looking forward to more steamy videos in the near future.
(a little locomotive humor...🤭)
Maybe we'll get to see it on its return trip in a few weeks.
Nice 🙏🏼☑️
Thank you! Cheers!
Very cool look forward to seeing it in Moose Jaw on Sunday......
We chased it into Moose Jaw on Saturday. That video will be coming soon.
this event was simple, but fun! I have a picture of me sitting in the firetruck, lol.
Yep, for sure. I was surprised when I got home and started editing at how little footage I had captured. Like you said, simple event but a great chance to get up close and personal with a piece of history so that's what mattered.
Magnificent catches of the steam locomotives, I like it 5 stars.
Thumbs up.
Keep up the perfect work, my friend, liked and subscribed, Greetings from Portugal to Canadá.
Thank you so much. Another steam train video will be coming up soon.
@@DanOCan thats good news.

@@DanOCan it would be nice to have you as my new subscriber.
Hey I have a question, me and a friend are going to the Final Spike tour when it comes to Illinois and in all the videos of 2816 I've watched up until the first tour stop it was pulling a whole train including 1 or 2 f-units. Is just 2816 going on tour or will it have the whole set of cars and extra power with it ?
I’m not sure. I think 2816 might have a few passenger cars for show, but doubt they’ll be used for anything, as the website says they’re not doing any rides.
@@VicksburgRailProductionsthe passenger cars are for employees
And the cars and f units will go with 2816 for the rest of the tour
In my short video during their training run, they had a helper locomotive and s few passenger cars. I suspect they would have been doing the tests mirroring how they intend to do the whole trip.
@@DanOCan Agreed.
