Wow, nice job. That equipment looks so similar but so different from the Combat Engineer equipment when I served in the mid 70's. We had loaded are Battalion onto a train for transport to Florida from Fort Polk... Nice looking stuff and great choice of locations for filming.
The Fort Polk, LA, to Fort Carson, CO, train did pick a switch and derailed three cars (two jack knifed) near the highway 115 overpass Thanksgiving morning, November 24, 2011 about 9:00 AM. Glad you nailed some early morning video - love your tripod - only way to shoot video! I wish you well with your future military career.

WOW. It is very rare to catch a train like this one. But I feel afraid of getting caught by military police if I were filming a similar train.

I saw some tanks on a BNSF manifest once at Palmer Lake, but I've never seen a full military train. Nice!
