I beg you all to ignore spam comments. I try my best to have them removed when I see them. As for hate comments, I just ignore them. Criticism has taught me alot about things I haven't known. But I digress - SBNW - เกม
she did some passenger runs between Toronto and London a few times when her sisters where in for service
I appreciate the info!
Very cool video. I'm also making a documentary of the same name about 2816 Empress. Announced it over a year ago, and it will take another year to do. Thank you for doing my favorite engine. I hope you can continue making great videos.
The locomotive shown at 1:45 is a 3000 series, 4-4-4 Jubilee, not a 4-6-4 2800 series Hudson.
Sorry for the late response to this, but I did ultimately know that. However, it wasn't intended to show a Hudson from CP, more so as just background film while I talk about 2816's history. Thanks for pointing it out, though. I do appreciate it.
Too bad they never kept a 5900 series Selkirk locomotive 🚂 up and running, that would have been awesome 😎
Great video!
I just uploaded my own video yesterday from seeing the Empress #2816 yesterday during its stop at Saint Paul Union Depot in Minnesota
She sure is a beautiful locomotive and it’s great to see her back on the high iron after 13 years!
Very appropriate to call #2816 "The Empress of Canada" since Canadian Pacific Ships, sister company of CPR, named their ocean liners "Empress".
Also, when CP Airlines existed, it's radio callsign was "Empress"
Yes, my first trip to England in 1970 was on The Empress of Canada.
Cool video & good background info. But the narration sounds like a text reading computer program.
It is, this is the last video that will have it, since I recently hired a Narrator
