20 Axle MASSIVE Train Car with a Caboose- Special Siemens Delivery

WATCH IN HD
This unique catch was the Union Pacific SMEYU-06 from Memphis, TN to Yuma, AZ. The train originated as BNSF, but was handed over to UP in Memphis, hence the BNSF power. At the rear of this train was a manned caboose from the Fracht USA company. Being one of the largest rail cars to currently traverse the rails, this thing had 20 axles with a top speed of 25 mph loaded, and 45 mph if empty. After idling at Davidson Yard in Fort Worth since the morning, this massive load finally departed West along the UP Baird Sub. This was just after sunset at 8:17 PM in Benbrook, Texas on 8-11-23. Thanks for watching!
The engine was:
BNSF 8022 GE ES44C4
