*Note the KCS Track Geometry Inspection Car on the end of the train. Watch til the end!
CPKC train 259 heads north at four locations. Note the Grey Ghost GP and the CP 7020, both next to each other in consist.
Roughly two weeks after the merger between KCS and CP, the new CPKC Rail is operating in full. Here, a fitting mix of KCS and CP power is found on the KC bound manifest train out of E St Louis, IL. Featuring a stop at the Piasa Creek Bridge in Delhi, IL along HWY 67 north of Godfrey, this video takes you between Lenox (Mitchell) and Jerseyville, IL, with the first two shots on the UP Springfield Sub, and the last two on the CPKC Godfrey Sub. Enjoy.
