Steam Expo was just one of many incredible events that were part of the Vancouver's World Fair, 'Expo 86'. (officially known as the '1986 World Exposition on Transportation and Communication')
The Grand Parade of Steam commemorated the beginning of the two-week Steam Expo. Here you'll see many runby's of steam locomotives from across Canada and the US.
This is home video footage shot by my dad. I was only three years old at the time, but I do remember this incredible event!
NOTE: I am by no means a train expert! I was only able to piece together the details of each steam engine thanks to @WhistlepostWP for their upload of this same event and their detailed descriptions of the locomotives. (See their video here: [ Ссылка ])
