    good to see 2816 on her first run. what started as a rusty hulk has became the ambassador of CPKC in their excursion fleet.

      I'm glad you liked the video. I've always had a fascination with steam engines. You might want to watch another short walk around video on my channel titled: Santa Fe 3759 locomotive train in Kingman AZ.

    2816 should be the official locomotive of Canada

    Look like Doyle McCormick was there assisting in the engine performance

    Who would have new that they all played a part already for 2816 to go from Canada to Mexico and back up.

    Honestly, if i was also doing th hydro static test, i would be frightened praying nothing would explode

      That's why they do a hydro. It won't explode. Water doesn't compress so it stores no energy. if it fails it just leaks. Still I would have thought they would have done the ultrasound survey first.

    it would be cool to build a modern steam engine using modern materials. i guess there is no reason to though. what a shame.

      That would be interesting to find out the estimated cost to do that. Thanks for your comment.

      Are we talking about a small nuclear reactor? How about a "Mr. Fusion"
