    Love to see the old trains still running, I like the new built 4-4-0's that are touring around but the old ones are the best. Thank you for sharing this so we can see this beautiful train.

    4-4-0 American locomotives are just so emblematic.
    And the rolling stock is well preserved!

    There's nothing more iconic than a steam locomotive.

    Gorgeous old Amercan loco and passenger cars, but a caboose on a passenger train - just looks weird. Maybe on a mixed train on narrow gauge and short lines but watching it, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Oh! Keep it real for the kids. Thanks for sharing the vid.

    Love these old trains from 1800's.We haven't had trains on PEI for 30 years or so.The last passenger train was in 68.The fright train to leave was in 89.All over after that.We're so small that I'm surprised it didn't happen a lot sooner.Haven't seen one since the last time in was in New Brunswick eight years ago.Great video man.

    Pulling along 5 heavyweight cars plus a caboose is doing great for an old time 4 4 0 steamer like this.

    Perhaps not as impressive as a video of a Challenger or Northern or the Royal Hudson working hard or going fast but still makes you proud that it's here in Manitoba.

      4-4-0 is my favorite... They were uses well up to the turn of the century... there were later models (similar to this one) capable of speeds up to 100 MPH! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_Central_and_Hudson_River_Railroad_No._999

    So if I'm correct but is Canadian Pacifc 3 is the oldest standard gauge steam locomotive in the both Canada and America nit sure if there osnt any left from that time in the 21st century and is she also the oldest still in operation not a replica Canadian Pacifc steam locomotive built by the Canadians from the 1880s?
