See exciting Canadian Pacific Railway train action along the former rails of the Milwaukee Road. Volume One covers the CP from Minnesota’s capital city of St. Paul to River Jct. at La Crescent, MN. This segment runs between the bluffs and the beautiful Mississippi River where you’ll also see some river barges and steamboats, including the Delta Queen.

The CP train action includes: road freights, locals, switching and unit trains of coal, oil and intermodal. Plus Amtrak’s Empire Builder and some steam powered passenger excursions with Milwaukee Road 261 and Canadian Pacific 2816. See a nice variety of CP diesel power along with colorful lashups with other Class 1 power including: BNSF, CSX, NS, KCS and UP. Also see these trains as they pass through the great river towns and by several old and historic Milwaukee Road depots.

There’s even a segment on a street running with a CP local in Winona. Rail footage era 2002-2015.

    I just order this one and I can’t wait to see it I hope it has the GP9u’s, SD40-2F’s and also the SD30C-ECO’s

    There’s something for everyone in this program: a beautiful landscape, colorful locomotives, a variety of consists, street running, river traffic, steam trains and more! This is one of the most scenic portions of the former Milwaukee Road, and Plets Express has done a great job exploring the line with top-notch videography and interesting, informative narration. The second volume in the series is just as good, following the Milwaukee route across Wisconsin. You can’t go wrong adding both programs to your collection!

    As always Plets Express has done a five star production. My father worked for the CP for 36 years and I follow all the lines when I got time.
    With the map included in this tape it’s easy to follow the locations. Shot always with the perfect angle and light this tape is a must for all railfan!!!!!!

    A big fan of Plets Express as his videos are put together nicely. Plets Expres really did their research on these productions. I recommend any Plets Videos if you like informative Narration and good picture quality.

    Being a fan of the CPR, I had to have this video. Having travelled the route of the video 1st hand added to the interest. No disappointments here. A great presentation of a busy line . The views of the scenery of the region is well done and how the railroad follows the mighty Mississippi, showing the water traffic as well. Added bonus is the steam train excursions shown . Excellent video that is a must for all rail fans.
