Special Trains : CPR Empress Steam Train

Steaming out of the past comes CPR Empress. The resurrected locomotive 2816 re-entered active service in 2001 as a roving ambassador for Canadian Pacific Railway. CPR Empress will now be employed as a significant component of the company's community investment program.

CPR's 2816 is a class H1b Hudson type locomotive built by Montreal Locomotive Works in December 1930. CPR Empress is now the only surviving H1b Hudson and is one of only a handful of preserved and operating CPR steam locomotives in North America.
