Unit crude oil tanker train roaring by at sunset -- Thompson, ND
Author: jmulhol2

BNSF #7538, a GE ES44DC (built: 04/2007), along with another BNSF "GEVO" and BNSF "Dash9", leads a 3x0, 108-car eastbound (geographically southbound) unit crude oil tanker train with two additional "buffer" cars past MP87 on the BNSF Hillsboro Subdivision just south of Thompson, ND, during the cool, breezy, and drizzly sunset hour of 09/23/2022.

Awesome..
Thanks for showing the train in entirety.
Liked the reflection of the tank car's yellow reflectors and the FRED at the end.
Great Video Jake.
