Howdy, name’s Dylan! Just a guy with a passion of trains, who likes to share his hobby with others. Here on my channel you’ll see railfan videos from my home state of Louisiana and beyond, occasional Trainz Simulator videos, model railroading, and much more. If you want to see all of my railroad pictures, be sure to check out my Instagram!
CP 2816: The Empress in the Land of Belles | CPKC Final Spike Steam Tour!
On April 13, 2023 the two beloved Class 1 Railroads, Kansas City Southern of the United States and Canadian Pacific of Canada, came forth and merged into the first ever mega north to south transcontinental railroad! With CEO of the new railroad Keith Creel naming it, "Canadian Pacific Kansas City" or "CPKC".
Fast forward to a year later, the newly merged railroad would go all out to celebrate their one-year anniversary by operating the one and only, Canadian Pacific "Empress" No. 2816 on the Final Spike Steam Tour!
In this video, we'll cover 2816's history of her past and present. While also see her putting on an amazing performance while operating over the former KCS Beaumont Subdivision; as she travels from Calgary, Alberta, to Mexico City, Mexico. We chased the beautiful Empress from Zwolle, Louisiana, all the way south to Liberty, Texas. While it took me quite awhile to put this video together, I had a lot of fun putting this video together. I hope y'all enjoy the history segment and coverage of the Empress on the southbound chase! Thank y'all for watching!

Narrow Gauge Steam in the Rockies: Steam Action in Durango
Yeah, as the video would state, it would seem that the 80s and 90s would’ve been a good time to be a railroad enthusiast but I wonder if the 70s would’ve been interesting because that was Amtrak’s rainbow era and the same point in time that Conrail would’ve been forming and because of both of those things you would’ve had quite a variety in Locomotives, freight, cars and passenger cars of different previous owners and paint schemes. Plus you had stuff like the American freedom train and bicentennial units
If I was in the 90s or 80s I would definitely be railfanning in Texas or California UP and SP and ATSF and BN and Conrail but I was born in 2005 Feb 14 I railfan UP BNSF and CPKC
This was a great history and narration, you definitely should have more subscribers with the amount of effort you put into this, and it sure made a nice twist to seeing the same spots I caught 2816 from. I was the guy who was with Railfan Jordan and Traindeer Productions, by the way.
@@chartreuserailfanning2230 oh okay, cool! And thank ya, really means a lot man! It was definitely a lot of fun making it for sure.
Good stuff Dylan, this will definitely be an experience me, you, and many other railfans will never forget!
@@TyTytheTrainGuy ain’t that the truth bud! Glad you enjoyed it! :)

Yea, I recognized ya when we were at Liberty lol. Even if I didn’t get to talk to you as much as I wanted to with all the amount of people that were there, it was nice seeing ya out there man!
@@DylanRailVids04 likewise it was great to see you too hopefully next time we’ll have time to chat big update tomorrow is my birthday July 20, 2024 I am turning 30

Thanks for including me in the video man, glad my bridge shot turned out how I wanted it. Great narration and cinematography as always. Keep up the great work dill pickle 😎

I was there at DeQuincy but it was a great video and well worth the wait

@@DylanRailVids04 Anytime man
Ayo, thanks for including my footage! And great video broski!
@@railfanjordan8141 couldn’t done it without your help bro! Appreciate it! 🤙🏽
Great video, once again like the music choices and footage you took of the Empress. I sure wish I got to see her for myself, but I've been busy with college, work, and the book I'm working on. Still, I'm sure 2816 will return to America again in the future seeing how this run was another great factor to add to her history. Not sure when that next opportunity will come, but I'll do whatever I can to see my third favorite CP engine in person.
@@evanf1293 thank you! I appreciate it! Hopefully you can get that opportunity again next time they’ll run another excursion with her. I got a good feeling they will do another tour like this again. Maybe not all the way to Mexico (which we all know how that ended up), but at least end in Texas. Until then, we’ll just have to wait and see man.
@@DylanRailVids04 Mhm. I really hope one of them can be in Minnesota as I have family there and during my last visit, I found a bridge that she traveled over her previous visits to the US (and her recent one) which 261 had gone over numerous times in excursion service too.
Nice Catch
Great catch, greeting from dylan of the other half of the earth!
@@srrrb5953 appreciate it man!
You got me standing on the pedestrian Bridge.
That was a great chase.

I love trains. Wish life was that simple again.
Never heard the real whistle, just that screechy faker
Not that Bad I have a Music Video New York Central Hudsons Tribute Music : Schubert Serenade ( Arthur Fiedler ).
The horn sounds awesome and the locomotives are adorable
Dylan fantastic SHots you made .
Thank you!

@@maxwellwalcher6420 sadly as of right now I don’t know if it’ll ever operate again. There’s talks about it in the past but I hope someday it can happen
The KCS Logos are now white
Great shot with CP 7018
Thank ya man!
I love the sound of the horn
I heard the air whistle when the train was approaching,and when the train was passing I heard the 6 chime
You got me at the end next to the car in the Liberty shot 🤣 cant wait to see your footage next!
Gotta love it when I get my best friends in my shots 😂 Appreciate it bro!
Nice trailer pecker, cant wait
I approve the music you used as I know exactly where it's from.
Yup! I figured it would be a good fit for 2816 lol Glad you enjoyed it man!
@@DylanRailVids04 Despite what some people say about the movie that music comes from, I have a soft spot for it, and it's also where my all-time favorite song originates from.
@@evanf1293 I totally agree with ya there. I still watch the Planes movies to this day mainly because of the soundtracks alone
@@DylanRailVids04 I myself also can relate to Dusty in many ways.
Nice. It was nice meeting you
Same with you too Mason!
Nice trailer, i also made my own trailer from my UP coming video of 2816!
Oh yea I saw it lol Can’t wait to see how your video comes out!
Awesome video 👏📸
