2816 accelerates out of Minot

Canadian Pacific #2816 accelerates along the Portal sub at East Minot for the 320+ mile run to Glenwood, MN on a glorious 37 degree crystal clear morning in North Dakota. This was easily one of my favorite photos from the entire trip. The experience is difficult to put into words.

 

Canadian Pacific 2816 is a H-1b 4-6-4 Hudson-type steam locomotive built by the Montreal Locomotive Works (MLW) in December 1930 for the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR). It is the only non-streamlined H1 Hudson to have survived into preservation.
