I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! I grew up watching the SP come over the summit heading into and out of Reno, and when I was older I ended up in the Army as a truck driver, 88M. In Afghanistan, I drove a PLS truck and trailer very similar to the cargo HEMTT and trailer you have set up on the 6th flat car back. I remember when we went to NTC for training to deploy, I was on the railhead team loading and offloading our trucks and equipment, so this train gave me some great (not so great) memories! Great video!
