After pacing this train for a few miles, we drove ahead and caught it at the crossing here.
Apparently the train was detoured on the CP and sent south at LaCrescent. It's actually 2 empty 80-car ethanol trains combined together as made evident by the SOO hopper dividing the train in half and a smaller tanker behind the power acting as a buffer car. Totalling at 162 cars in length, this is the longest train I have ever seen!
Wasnt it so nice of the idiots in the car to both block my camera and chatter away to ruin the audio?! grrrrr
Yeah, too bad they messed up your excellent video! It's still really cool though, and definitely an extremely long train!
