    Brings me back to my childhood. But I had to watch a CZcams commercial first before I could watch this commercial.

      Thanks GB, this one is definitely a classic from a very proud era of the CPR.

    The CFL on CBC aired these TV spots frequently for many years...today the CP patch is present on EVERY CFL uniform! No wonder the Canadian Pacific Railway must be friends with the CFL for many years, eh?

    Hi Ben, cool score. 70s and 80s were a great time to work for the railroad.

      Thanks Greg. A very different company back then compared to CP today, that is for sure.

    For the ones who want to know Cp Rail 6038 was new in 1983 so that's why it looks new

      6038 is now stored unserviceable and it was retired in 2018

    Well then... I imagined this would be some sort of UP challenger excursion ad but nope, ex- AWVR. Okay, thanks man I like It. Don't get a lot of it anymore. 👌👍

    I don’t think we’ve seen a Commercial from them since the two brothers one 9 years ago.

      It’s really nice. They do know how to do railroad commercials up north.

      Friend of a friend pointed it out. I asked the original poster if I could share it here with you guys. A great commercial showcasing a very different CP compared to nowadays.

    I do remember this commercial, for some reason I thought their was another version with a woman singing, maybe I'm wrong though.

  • @williamarseneau1575
    @williamarseneau1575 Před 8 lety +2

    That pretty cool. Have you ever heard Union Pacific's song?
    Maybe someone has "It's a Great Big Rolling Railroad", it's pretty cool as well.

    • @BArailsystem
      @BArailsystem  Před 8 lety +2

      I sure have, there's quite a few different versions on CZcams.

      I started in the Moose Jaw division in '81 as a train order operator. Later was a Train Dispatcher in the Saskatoon division, then on to Winnipeg, Calgary, Montreal and finished up the career in Calgary.

    Definitely actors swinging that spiking maul! Real railroad workers don’t swing their hammers like that you get tired really quick that way
