Bound for The Crow, CPKC 319-916 descends the grade into Webb, Saskatchewan. At Dunmore, this train will take the Taber Sub to Lethbridge and then head across Crowsnest Pass and onto the UP at Eastport, Idaho. We were heading for The Hat, so this was a great train to follow west across the scenic Maple Creek Sub.

The coal dust is flying as CPKC 820-902 highballs through MacKid, Saskatchewan. In the distance, the elevator at Maple Creek can be seen, across an otherwise empty prairie. Coal trains on the prairies are rather rare, with only a handful a year operating to Thunder Bay.

KCS 5002 east approaches Piapot with empty grain train 318-598. Piapot, is named after the Plains Cree Chief Piapot, who led a blockade of the CPR right of way near Moose Jaw, during railway construction in 1882 and 1883. The North West Mounted Police were dispatched to remove the blockade and negotiated a peaceful resolution with Chief Piapot to allow construction to resume across the prairies. He was also known for advocating for indigenous rights and negotiating better terms for his people under Treaty 4.

The Brooks Aqueduct was built between 1912 and 1914, to supply water to farmers from Newell Lake. The CPR built the Aqueduct to encourage settlement in the area and it remained in service for around 30 years, however was prone to leaks and was eventually replaced by an elevated canal on a berm. The Aqueduct is currently a protected historical site, although has had some sections removed over the years. The location is easily accessible and trains still operate past this historical location. CPKC 100-22 is one of the many daily trains that pass this location.
