The purge is a normal thing to do when the locomotive has been standing for any length of time, residual water in the cylinders would cause damage if not vented. In this case, I'm thinking they made a good show of it for the fans, really impressive..
True traditionally only done for a few rotations of the drivers, thus this was clearly done for the video/pictures as there would not have been that much steam-generated condensation built up!
This locomotive is a work of art, not only for its shape but the black and deep red CP livery. The loco and train in deep red contrast with the forest and fit into the scene perfectly, man-made and nature in harmony.
For a man that knows how the equipment operates to its finest detail, this is a show that tells what the equipment is doing in every aspect of its operation. Can't get that kind of analysis with a diesel, as much as I love them. Only a steamer can transmit so much information as it does its thing. LONG LIVE STEAM! as a post script, I'd like to mention a cartoon, where someone said that an automobile would never supplant the horse. If we ever get an EMP, steam would be the way to move the world!
Honestly this is one of the most beautiful engines I have ever seen. The paint job is wonderful, and seeing her ride through with a skirt of clouds was one of the most enchanting things I've ever witnessed. Sorry to sound poetic, but raw pressure and mechanical power has way more of an emotional impact than any internal combustion engine or electric motor. This is why people like steam locomotives so much.
The title "The Beauty of Steam on a Cold Morning" is so apropos. Notice also the color of smoke coming from the smokestack, light grey. This is a sign of clean efficient combustion. The fireman knows what he's doing.
What a breathtaking sight and sound,no diesel can ever match this beauty,its ALIVE.are they going to preserve or destroy it?This is addictive watching..............Thanksgreetings from UK
@@azaabazha nope I am really talking about bringing some of the steam power back to life. Yes I’m a non technical person with a love for these that I’ve seen in childhood and adolescence.
I'm old, and I've seen all governments do everything wrong for over 5 decades… but anyone who would vote to have this gorgeous train sent to the cutter should be drawn and quartered in public, but before that, have all the school children file by in the 1000s to see who is robbing them, and future generations of this glory and pride of workmanship. This train can't be replaced. I seriously think the world has gone mad. And don't tell me it's too costly to save steam trains… just look at what the dear politicians spend millions upon yearly….
Ha ha... yes... in fact when I was 40 in the early 80's, I'd never touched a computer before... way before any PC ... we were hooked up to a "Main Frame" downtown. I had two weeks training and went on to set up 28 STC'd aircraft ship systems on a multi-tiered fully indented BOM using parent/child format that involved some 62,000 individual components. Blueprints were taped up on the wall and painstakingly transferred a nut and bolt at a time.. it took three years. No one would do that now, but I learned a lot.
I know just what you are saying Jim.... I've watched the same type of dumb assed morons totally destroy almost all of the fantastic history of my city and in the process they turned it into a sterile 'Jetsons City' about as bland and as boring as batshit today. My secret wish is to have them and their offspring be forced to live forever in the 'ferret' boxes that they have created in their mindless thinking and their greed and their total failure to understand just how very precious so much of history can really be. Oh yes we had engines such as this one but long since gone to scrap metal for just another $ profit for the money grubbers. And no doubt, so much like the ones you speak of as well.
As a 4th generation rail-roader, and bringing in the 5th - love this!!!. My grandpa and dad always told stories about the old Calder yards, and turntables in Calder and Edson.
Must be that time of year again Oct... I'm stuck indoors on a grey wet day in the UK . I always love to see this clip, what a glorious sound and sight she is.
@@ZazzelTheGamer No its Canadian Pacific 2816, also known as the "Empress", is a preserved class "H-1b" 4-6-4 Hudson-type steam locomotive built by the Montreal Locomotive Works (MLW) in December 1930 for the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR); the only non-streamlined H1 Hudson to have survived into preservation. We have many beautiful locos in the UK but this is one of my favourite steamers . This video, loco and scenery are unsurpassed by anything else on YT for me .I prefer North American and Canadian Railways.
What American ingenuity? The steam locomotive was invented and developed in Britain. Most of the early American locomotives were built there, until a domestic industry sprang up in the mid-1830s. As for 2816, she was built in Montreal to the designs of an ex-patriot Brit, Henry Blaine Bowen, who incorporated British developments in advance of then-current American common use.
Its like the train creates its on path in the clouds. An angelic appearance. Everything that is behind and beside it on either side disappears into the clouds. All your problems are washed away as you depart into the heavens.LOVED THE VID
Just amazing; and to think all that incredible show, just moving the train to the ready platform, ha, ha! As long as there are still humans with souls on this planet, Steam will never die.
This is where part of my story titled, Adoption Not an Option, takes place.I love the sound of a train. It carries a haunting sound of moving into the abyss of space with no time yet time will change your course. I was a little girl, maybe three, when my life changed profoundly as I boarded the stairs and moved far away. I had no idea at the time that the train whistle would be forever etched into my life as a symbol of the family that disappeared from me. This mystical sound will be a huge part of my upcoming film, "Eugenea's Story." I can't wait to see it on screen.
You gotta admit this is a beautiful engine! Just as beautiful as the country she traverses! Many memories of my visit to Lake Louise on the Canadian years ago. I can feel the crispness in the air. Greetings from Florida.
As an 8 year old child, near a steam locomotive which was doing this move, it scared me very badly. I still cannot tell the story without gettomg emotional.
I wish these incredible machines were still operating. I live not far from a railroad track, and for over 30 years I've listened to the loud, obnoxious noise of diesel locomotives.
GOD! Is there anything else? This is the personification of the right guy/girl being in the right place/time to capture probably the most "Dream-like" sequence in all steam lovers of all time.
I worked on every Section of the Laggan Sub and bunked out of this station in the summer of 88. I remember hearing that Gretzky was traded while I was there.
In one word. Fantastic. I am sorry that in Portugal with so many steam locomotives and that they are no longer used especially with tourists and children so that they could see what it was like in the old days.
Holy crap, do you think everybody's warm now? The engineer was creating a steamy background just for you. Ladies and gentlemen, one of the world's most beautiful steam engines in operation! God save the Queen, and God save the Empress.
Hell yea! Ever since I was 5 yrs old during the holidays I would help my dad put up his old Lionel freight train I wanted to be a steam engineer and one day have my own loco showing her off to the world and spark a kids interest like it did for me. Sadly thats too expensive and the way my bank account is set up I got a checking and savings, but I got a daily limit of 100$ lmao
You would need a fireman to keep the fire going, plus a maintenance crew. The last thing you want is scalding steam in your face. That's a lot of money. Lol
Pacific type (4-6-2) were generally used for passenger express trains. All of that steam that was vented from the cylinders was to get rid of any water.
steam that has condensed back to water in the cylinders, is in-compressible and can blow the cylinder covers right off a loco, doing immeasurable damage. While the length of time does seem a tad long, certainly better to be sure than sorry, and the only loss really is some cylinder lubrication. The photographic effect is pretty good and we can assume plenty of spectators.

真的是非常非常的浪費能源，小小的驅動器，那來的那麼多冷凝水，我們是做空調的工程人員，都是在設計這方面的工程，所以操作人員應該再教育一下吧！
This locomotive is a work of art, not only for its shape but the black and deep red CP livery. The loco and train in deep red contrast with the forest and fit into the scene perfectly, man-made and nature in harmony.
Not only that. But the pristine nature of the livery. That grey paint is beautifully done.
Can't wait for her run later this year, giving her fans one magnificent run from Canada to Mexico!
Tuscan and grey

That mountain bluff or whatever, incredible
Way more? Combustion engines can be just as good. To me that's a biased opinion
Cool. Insert a "for me," next to that "but" though.
I agree. But, it's too bad the HO scale brass versions that represents the real-life steam engines can't do this. 0:05. 🙄
The wonderful feeling of watching one of these old beauties is almost as great as that of caressing a beautiful woman.
The title "The Beauty of Steam on a Cold Morning" is so apropos. Notice also the color of smoke coming from the smokestack, light grey. This is a sign of clean efficient combustion. The fireman knows what he's doing.
WOW. That is one breath-taking machine!!
"Breath taking" . . . . . Exactly.
*Keanu Reeves intensifies*
Heh love the fact that pickup is sitting there with steam vapor coming from its exhaust and the train comes along with its own steam and buries it :D
CP #2816 is one beautiful steam locomotive. 🚂 ❤️
What a breathtaking sight and sound,no diesel can ever match this beauty,its ALIVE.are they going to preserve or destroy it?This is addictive watching..............Thanksgreetings from UK
It's clearly preserved so
Beautiful composition. You were in the right place at the right time.
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL i wholeheartedly agree, these locos should be preserved for future generations!
What a beauty!!! These should be brought back (even if it means converting them to gas fired burners) for the sheer brilliance of their engineering.

@@gottsavezekaiser1918 you have to pay to commission K&L Trainz to make CP 2816

Wonderful footage! Thank you so much!
What a beautiful and awesome Display. I have never seen that before so dramatically. Thanks for sharing. Really something worth watching.
I never seen this in real life....i dont believe it ! Beautiful !
caron reform when I was a boy, these used to go by my house two or three times a day. We always stopped to watch them go.
I love trains...especially steam engines😍
magnifique locomotive, et quel spectacle impressionnant, toute cette force... quel bonheur de voyager dans ce train ...
Beautiful place and beautiful locomotive. The livery is simply great!
Looks like, sounds like, 2816 is a living creature that just loves where he is, where he's going, and what he's doing.
Epic!!!!! This engine looks so cool going down the tracks. I can watch this for ages.

Absolutely Beautiful Mighty and Majestic . .

Extra-class steam show! :)
Just wish steam trains were still a thing. Not for any practical reasons. They are just beautiful :)
The buildup in speed gave me a bit of a rush! The force of smoke combined with the steam starting to come out like punches. What a show!
As an 8 year old child, near a steam locomotive which was doing this move, it scared me very badly. I still cannot tell the story without gettomg emotional.

This baby has been kept in fantastic condition.
You don't start a steam engine. You wake it up
how very cool brings out the little boy in all of us!

A beautiful engine with beautiful scenery.
Wow what a shot. Love it. Thank you
I could watch this all day long!
Very nice. I would loved to see this engine one day. It's a real beauty!!
I worked on every Section of the Laggan Sub and bunked out of this station in the summer of 88. I remember hearing that Gretzky was traded while I was there.
So beautiful she looks and sounds ... really amazing..
very nice!
Truly a sight to behold! (to be said in a Howard Coselll voice)
Nothing like a stealthy departure from the station!!
Beautiful! Who cant like these machines?
What a show, thanks.
Fabulous! That's a lot fo steam. Lets you know something about how much pressure is contained inside steam locomotive systems. Impressive!
That's nice way to commute to work and back while carrying the work load great Americana history
Beautiful train and location..
This is a really steam locomotive! Great video! Like and favorite! Regards from Romania!

That was stellar. I wish I could see such a sight
Can you imagine a 4884 Big Boy doing that? Very cool video.
In 5 years you won't need to imagine it.
awesome... trains like that seemed to be alive..wonderful video..
Some water some heat so basic so beautiful.
What a sight. Just awesome!
Coming at ya with a smile,.
Awesome video 👍🏻
I'd love to have the money to buy, maintain and operate a steam locomotive that's coal fired

IT IS REALLY BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
amazing, wonderful!
Das ist die wahre Dampflokzeit, Winter und arschkalt, das ist wunderschön
That's the real steam time, winter and cold, that's beautiful
That's one beautiful engine...and landscape
There is no magic to the newer trains. Without steam, they are just rolling machines.
If the merger works out, I can’t wait to see this beauty go to Mexico!
I. LOVE. STEAM.
What a beautiful sight to see
I love the sound of the whistle right at the beginning of the video; beautiful =]
The most beautiful thing i ever see in my life
All I can say is WOW!
That machine is beautiful!
Pacific type (4-6-2) were generally used for passenger express trains. All of that steam that was vented from the cylinders was to get rid of any water.
this locomotive is a 4-6-4 hudson type, not a pacific
What a beautiful train...
I love Canadian pacific and Canadian national
Now this is a TRAIN..Friken things alive..Its saying feed me feed meeeee..BEAUTIFUL
