I’m trying my very best to NOT make a long winded political statement.

All joking aside, the train (without reporting marks) looks to be at the Federal Railroad Administration testing facility near Pueblo Colorado. The prop looks to be for timing a planned impact. My guess is there is a ongoing study of how an EV collision impacts railroad operations (or the consequences of a train impacting an EV). My understanding it is that it is difficult for mere mortals to get into the facility, much less play around.


But hey, the setup is GOOD!
