This sign at the east end of Humbodlt Yard begs the question: how long before "KC" is added next to "CP"? On this day, "CP" remained valid, only to become invalid on the morrow, when CPKC consummated their merger. |

Still Humboldt |
| Description: |
The sign on the west end of the yard office proclaims that this is still Humboldt Yard, even though a new railroad--Canadian Pacific Kansas City--would be taking over on the next day. |

"From The Eastern Shore/To The Western Strand" |
| Description: |
As the last pure Canadian Pacific train I will ever photograph began to roll into the maze of tracks at Humboldt Yard on an unseasonably glorious April Thursday afternoon, I was singing Gordon Lightfoot's "The Canadian Railroad Trilogy" out loud. Hail and farewell, Canadian Pacific. We will always remember you. |
