A 1+ mile long eastbound (geographically southbound) 75-car loaded wind turbine "blade" train (w/ 30-blades) in a 2x0 power configuration is seen here passing MP97 on the BNSF Hillsboro Subdivision in Grand Forks, ND, during the hazy, hot, and humid early afternoon hours of 06/06/2023. 

Power:
BNSF #4132 (GE C44-9W; built: 10/2002)
BNSF #5031 (GE C44-9W; built: 07/2004)
