The Final Spike Steam Tour featuring the historic steam locomotive Empress 2816 will be an unforgettable journey. Here are the details: Departure Date: The tour will begin on April 24, 2024, departing from Calgary, Alberta1. Route: The train will traverse Canada, the U.S., and Mexico in a single trip, making it the first-ever steam-powered passenger train to do so. Stops: The tour will include 11 stops between Calgary and Mexico City, with notable locations such as Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. Ticket Prices: Streamlined Cars: $149 for adults and $89 for children. Open Window Cars: $129 for adults and $79 for children3. The Empress 2816, built in 1930, boasts elegance and a whopping 3,800 horsepower. Although it won’t reach its original top speed of 145 km/h due to equipment age, the journey promises to be a remarkable celebration of rail history and the merger of Canadian Pacific and Kansas City Southern.
Does Mexico not have the same railroad safety rules as the US and Canada? There are so many railroad safety violations being committed that would get many of those people in big trouble.
I understand that there are indeed safety regulations that include pedestrian safety at railroad crossings. However, many of us (myself included) got caught up in the excitement of seeing the 2816 as close as possible, bordering on recklessness. I’m convinced that the day the convoy passes back through my city, I will keep a better distance, and perhaps I can get a better view.
@@esdyasWell, a lady got hit by 2816 so it reminds me of that one time 844 hit a woman for photos of 844, but this one was on a phone. So try and not stand too close.
Majestic machine! But this is actually way bigger news than people realize. Mexicans are going out by the thousands to wave because not only is this an amazing piece of history but to Mexico this marks a new beginning. The trains are coming back to Mexico. Canada, US and Mexico are now fully connected by rails and Mexico is investing heavily on reviving its once great rail network. They are also competing with Panama by building its own rail “canal” at the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and the Tren Maya in the Yucatán peninsula. Mexico has plans to connect the Maya Train to Belize and Guatemala. Americans and Canadians should be happy about this because Mexico is quickly becoming industrialized and bringing back all the manufacturing jobs from Asia. This will not only benefit Mexico but all of North America and Mexico doesn’t want to leave Central America behind. Helping Central America will be the only viable way to reduce mass migration. Mexico has a great plan but America is way too proud to admit it’s right. American politicians keep pushing the anti Mexico/invade Mexico agenda because they can’t stand the thought of Mexico becoming a Leftist, Humanitarian country that renationalized the petroleum and electric industries as well as nationalizing lithium. Current Mexican President AMLO has gained so much respect for Mexico around the world in the last 6 years and has started a movement called the 4th Transformation of Mexico. Now Claudia Sheinbaum, the new president elect of Mexico, will continue with what’s is referred to as the 2nd level of the 4th Transformation. Remember that American politicians know that there always needs to be an enemy and they sadly keep making it Mexico and its people. Mexico has always been a humanitarian country that remains neutral helps anyone that needs it (to a point of even helping others before its own people) and always asks for peace among nations. America is just too greedy and proud to allow Mexico to solve its issues. They create the problem and try to force their own solution on you, and that solution hardly ever helps your country.

Why all the negative comments about the US? You don't understand America, clearly. Mexico is more respected in America than you think.
