The Empress: CP 2816 - CPKC Final Spike Tour Preview

Показать описание

On April 26th 2024, Canadian Pacific 4-6-4 #2816 embarked on the trip of a lifetime. Over 76 days the steam locomotive known as "The Empress" ran from Calgary to Mexico City and back over the newly formed CPKC railway. It traveled over 8,000 miles: starting in Canada, passing through the United States, and finally arriving in Mexico. After festivities in Mexico City, "The Empress" headed back north with the special returning to Calgary on July 10th.

This is an in-depth preview, but just a small portion of the video I shot, as I followed the Empress for over 3,300 miles during 13 days of operation, plus some of the display days along the way. The entire video is available as a 3 DVD/Blu-ray set, or as a digital download/streaming video on Vimeo.

The pacing footage on May 2nd was shot by Brady Sanker.

Great video James, glad you got to see the Empress strutting her stuff! Seems like you captured a whole bunch of great locations across North America, i can't imagine how much planning must have gone into this! Keep up the great work!

I love the train screaming very much. You have to focus on that, especially in the mountains and valleys, and when it comes out of the tunnel as well. ❤

Next time, 2816 should visit the IAIS Railroad in case for public events and excursions!
