Those Canadian Pacific F Units Are Awesome! This Was Massey, Iowa In The Middle Of No Where..

Between having Jaw Tooth on one side, and someone from Trains Magazine on the other... This was a cool stop in a small Iowa riverside town called Massey.

Nice catch of the CPKC steam train Jason. Love that they also had two F units in it.

Happy Fourth Of July ..Stay safe as have fun.

[@marknall4447]

It's a great area to catch a train..... the hills of east central and northeast Iowa. The Mason City sub from Marquette westward to Postville is a neat area to watch the CP trains go through.

Iowa is a beautiful state from what I've seen of it. Some really pretty neighbourhoods. She was booking through Massey! Are you on the border with Iowa Jason? 🤔❤😊👍

CPKC love it

[@paulbergen9114]

They had a pretty good move on the train considering all the twists and turns. This is one of those areas of the state where the towns are further between and the population is rather low. For the most part the Diesels are either there for the ride on level areas or just a little boost on some hills. On this line however they're there to help as emergency power to help get it to the next terminal or at least out of the way as this track now sees increased traffic since the merger. While some sidings are getting extensions and even a few new ones being built any kind of hang up has real repercussions

[@jasonasselin]

They def were using them at times to push it..

[@Randomness5050]

Are the other locomotives on there for emergency use?
And what fuel do they use in the steam engine? Coal or oil?

[@JRNipper]

The 2816 originally burned coal but was converted to oil during the restoration.

[@Randomness5050]

@@JRNipper thank you!

[@BudmanPackfan]

The diesels are for emergency use, pulling assistance on some climbs & dynamic braking on downhill grades. Also on board 7013 is PTC equipment required by FRA to run trains on Class I mainlines.

​@@BudmanPackfan Thank you!

[@markbaker3639]

So, who is riding on that train?
