The Empress 2816, a 4-6-4 Royal Hudson type steam locomotive built in 1930, stands as a revered icon in railway history. Its powerful presence and elegant design symbolize the zenith of steam locomotive technology. In April 2023, The Empress 2816 drove a ceremonial “Final Spike Tour” celebrating the completion of the continent-spanning railway network that connects Canada, the United States, and Mexico. I enthusiastically pursued the Empress 2816, tracing its journey from Calgary to Medicine Hat, captivated by it’s majestic presence, and witnessed firsthand the nostalgia it evoked among enthusiasts and rail fans alike.
