THE WINNIPEG RAILFAN. Who are it? What am is? Where? Hello??? HEYYY!!! HELP!!!
This is supposedly a channel that has videos on all the railways the province of Manitoba has to offer, from Class 1 mainlines to Class 3 shortlines. There's also commentary videos on rail related topics like engines & railcar history and the awful "Engines of Amtrak" parodies! Feel free to check out the links listed in the video descriptions (or somewhere here in the about section) to follow TWR on other social media platforms to stay up to date on the latest tomfoolery !
The 'Trainboy Vlogs' series, T.B.A. podcast and most other non-train things will be on the second channel, Trainboy9159 which you can find if you go onto google dot com and search @Trainboy9159
Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to like and subscribe for more mediocre trainspotting adventures!

Canadian Pacific's Empress Returns to Canada!
On July 4th, Canada's steam icon, CPR 4-6-4 H1b 'Hudson' type locomotive, nicknamed 'the Empress' returned to Canadian soil after a long journey from Calgary to Mexico City and back on a trans-national tour! Some foamer friends and I chased it from the U.S. Border at Emerson to Winnipeg!
Stay tuned for PART 2, the public event on July 6th, and the chase to Brandon from July 7th!

Canada's 1967 Confederation Train

We all know about the Bi-Centennial railroad festivities of the USA in 1976. North of the border a few years before, a train displaying all sorts of history of the country in the span of a century, ran a 5K kilometer journey across Maple Syrup Land to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Canada as a country. ~ (Links to my other pages): Insta - winnipeg_railfan Flickr - www.flickr....

Weed Sprayer Trains - How Do They Work ?

Keeping Rail right-of-ways relatively clean is an important part of the safety and efficiency of the rail industry. One way railroads do that is by running annual WEED SPRAYER trains. In this video, we take a look at how they do what they do!

Kcs 1910 is over here in artesia Ms I caught it the other day on a job in Columbus Ms!!
Bro, Metra literally copied Union Pacific’s “Chicago & Northwestern” paint scheme.
The good old Canada
I suspected it was an AF joke
I suspect that eventually it'll be called Canadian Pacific & Southern.
Sigh of relief it back in Canada. Geeze, what a trip🫤🚂🇨🇦🇺🇲🇲🇽 ↪️↩️
Ann Arbor would’ve been gyatt if it would’ve been a GP35, and the pre 1973 scheme
Great footage! Glad to see 2816 doesn't have to be protected anymore and shes back home.
Magnificent catches of the trains coming by and pass, I like it 5 stars. Thumbs up. Keep up the perfect work, my friend, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
You captured some of the best angular shots I've ever watched. Excellent camera work young gun.
Thanks Christopher! Glad you enjoyed.
Hey @TheWinnipegRailfan do you happen to railfan the Norfolk Southern Erie District or the CSX Erie West Subdivision just south of Buffalo, NY?
I haven't been anywhere near there (yet) lol
3:46 “on the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me beer” lmao same with 8:12
Thanks for watching! Be sure to like, comment and subscribe for more! Discord server: discord.com/invite/Bx5yF7Zd Also check out the commentary video discussing the majority of events along the 2816s tour!
Hi The Winnipeg Railfan & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks The Winnipeg & Friends Randy & Super Cool Video & Canadian Pacific Empress & Thanks The Winnipeg Railfan & Good Friends Randy
at least there weren't any furries 😂
Lmao whattt
Why did they remove the ditch lights in the first place
Not sure, all I know is that it's not mandated to have them on once it gets into the US.
@@TheWinnipegRailfan Probably removed them because they would have been stolen from a Mexican, even with the train still moving.
Nice video cuh.
I knew you were gonna catch her at some point. Nice job at filming the Empress in her full might! ❤️👍😎
Kinda Weird To See Ditch Lights On A Steam Locomotive
Wish I could have seen her
It seems like the crew enjoys blowing that 6 Chime more and more at 10:16. Good video my man! Also, when they added CP 7013 on the train it was at Shreveport, LA on the southbound trip. I got to see that when they were traveling down on the former KCS Beaumont Sub. (Just thought I’d point that out lol) It was amazing!
They added 7013 due to their experience on the run through Rich Mountain. If you see videos of that run, boy I tell you, the two FP9s were STRAINING to haul the train through that mountain.
Welcome back CP'S old lady
Newfoundland was 3foot 6inch Guage so they couldn't run the train there.
Awesome videos my friend! 😊.I caught her at Halama drive at the floodway. About 20 railfans were hanging out there, including Steve Boyco!
Glad you got to see her!
4:05 What's up Keith is a classic😂, Imagine if he heard you though 💀
Zommer yappin 4:27
CP 2816, return to Canada from Mexico
I went to go see the empress leave winnipeg on the 7th to brandon, but I ended up leaving an hour late😭
Happy to see her return home!
Fantastic footage! Love it! Hopefully it will come to BC this year.
Please dont send her to tacobelland again
I agree
Lets goooo 2816 back to canadian after some chaos on the border (mexico)
At one point you ended up describing my entire Social studies 7 class😂
2816 return to steam
The CP Empress is probably just happy she is as far away she is from her nightmare...México.
Mexico should be ashamed of how they acted
@@spitfirenutspitfirenut4835 way too harsh buddy
You couldn't blame them... its the first time in living memory that a steam locomotive have run in Mexico, the only time any Mexican saw a steamer is on YT, so its understandable that those Mexicans were... overzealous.
*Starts playing 'So good to be back home again' by The Tourists*
Again, the SD70ACU is more interesting.
😑
I mean, sorta
Zesty diesel Foamer ahh comment
Video starts at 1:38
Definitely agree it was fun to see the grey ex-leasers breaking up the monotony
Part of the merger included that both railroad names had to be combined, which doesn’t really make any sense when they could’ve just bought KCS and kept the original CP name and called it a day.
GTW was controlled by CN since the 1920's.
I know you said option 2 sucks A-, But, if a pair of CPKC gevos were running back to back, then option 2 would have looked good that way, so would option 4, *that’s my opinion so pls don’t get mad*
The Confederation celebration is overshadowed in much of BC by the BC centennials the socreds did in 1958 and 1966 and were basically designed to be bigger then the canadian ones for political reasons. Nobody seemingly remembers this train around here its all about how they remember the queen visiting in 58. The 67 confederation logo is rare I almost get excited to see it. Incidendally all 3 centennials led to preservation of steam engines. BCRail had a steam excursion which lasted all of the 20th century but was popularized by the centennials and the confederation centennial led to heritage parks like Fort Steele or Calgary heritage with steam engine loops.
I know that you are gonna hate me for saying this but I am still a fan of the GE Genesis locomotives as well as for the SC44s. I know you don’t like them locomotives bro and I understand that. 😞😅
Was 14 and remembered seeing the confederation train in Toronto in 67
NS also has special paint schemes for their AC4400C6M A/C to D/C OR WHAT EVER I get them mixed up. Plus we have 911s, Law Enforcement, etc.
Nice a ex SSW SD45T-2 & a SP SD45T-2
Always liked the 50's & 60's livery for the CNR & CP passenger trains.
The beat drop on the second clip, great clips🔥🔥🔥
