  • Canadian Pacific Railway Hudson 2816 is a modern legend of the rails, having been brought home by her own railroad and made to run again, traveling the entire North American continent from Canada to Mexico. Today We're going to take a look at a hypothetical scenario. What is 2816 has been restored to running condition by Steamtown? She would have missed out on a lot, yes, but what would it have looked like? We can find out without destroying the space-time continuum, all we need are a few model trains in HO scale.

    The model of 2816 in this video is a Rapido Trains "Empress" H1b Standard Hudson. NKP 514 is an Athearn Genesis model with Econami sound installed.

    Fantastic camera work, closest thing to a model looking real.

    This is awesome, I just visited Steam town on a road trip last week and was lucky enough to see an Baldwin locomotive works Steam switcher get turned around on the table. probably one of my top 3 favorite train watching experiences
    My cousin was there with me, and while he is more into cars he finally understood why i love trains as much as i do

    It’d be great if 2816 visited Steamtown.

    That's pretty darn close to how we'd actually do it. Nice work. It would be great if 2816 could come home for a visit now that the Final Spike tour is done.

    Clever camerawork! You’d be convinced that this is how the layout is set up if you’ve never seen it

    Nice video work and make-believe Jim. Although I'd suggest the MOW crews do something to correct the dangerously leaning signal at Ridgecr-errr I mean "Moscow"!

    You know what's interesting. I thought of something very similar, but what if she ran for BC Rail? I let anyone use that idea for a video.

      I was aiming for a late 1990s theme here, and as best I can recall the other one at the time was Canadian Pacific/BC Rail Royal Hudson 2860.

    Realistically if canadian pacific didnt step in she would be in as much of a working order as 2929 is lol
