I was brought here while looking for a video on the Field Bunkhouse. I use to drive CP crews from Golden to Field and would love eating at the Bunkhouse. Damn they had good hamburgers 24hrs a day.
Bruce Kennewell thanks Bruce! I'm Aussie too (Perth). Norfolk Southern is my favorite North American railroad, but the Rockies has been on my list for close to 15 years now. Makes CP look exciting!
The scenery is so beautiful and the rivers look so clean and the water is a wonderful color. I bet it would be a trip of a live time to ride a passenger trail the full length of this rail system. Question: I was wondering if they had to make the tunnels wider and higher so the moder trains could pass th rough them? Thanks for an outstanding video. (Mississippi gulf Coast, USA).
The majority of the tunnels where high enough after they got the low slung well cars, before that they started with flat deck cars, so only one container at a time. The color of the water comes from the dirt and silt that is in the melt water from the glaciers.
Nice video. That last location had me kind of confused based on the description. I think that's actually the crossing at Beaverfoot Rd. between Leanchoil and Palliser.
