Also 2nd out is featuring an engine painted up in their newest paint scheme since the merger of CP and KCS was finalized.

I was one of the unfortunate souls on the overpass that evening. The dang freights just kept coming each time the engine moved!! LOL! But the steamer managed to make several appearances in between the intermodal containers, so we weren't totally blocked off.

I was there earlier in the day, it was super cool to be able to see both 2816 and 9375 that day!

It's so interesting to see a Hudson on the mainline in a country where preserved steam on the mainline is primarily Northerns (there are other classes but we seem to have more Northerns preserved and operational than other classes). She looks so small compared to what I'm used to seeing on KZfaq!

It's not what size your steam locomotive is that matters it's how you use it! 😉

While on tour, do you know if the CPKC has any particular target time to depart from their overnight stops?

@firestormflicks835 27 күн бұрын

@sclm046 yep! Their schedule is on their website along with a train tracker map thing for 2816! Check it out, it's pretty cool!

The next event is on the 28th in Laredo, TX, so I'd imagine it's heading there. Final leg of the southbound tour is Mexico City. Check it out on their website.

Will 9735 be in Shreveport?

I have no idea. I didn't even know it was going to be in KC till I got there and saw it lol

I just saw it heading through Neosho, MO about an hour ago and it had 1401 and 4107 in tow. 9375 was not in the consist.

Glad your shot turned out nice. I was up on the overpass and got blocked by the intermodal. Lot of angry people up there

I saw the bridge angle and you guys were so unlucky! I would've been so pissed 😆
