The Empress enters the United States

Canadian Pacific #2816 leads the Final Spike Tour across the border and past the former Soo Line turntable at Portal, ND. The rear of the train is still in Canada.

 

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.
