Just a train crew (2-3 guys?). Moving a lot of equipment via rail saves on resources. Largest movement I've see was at least 200-250 cars of tanks, trucks, jeeps etc...mostly 2 vehicles per car (400 vehicles easily) some drink from the fountain of knowledge, others just gargle |

Quoting: chuckslik Largest movement I've see was at least 200-250 cars of tanks, trucks, jeeps etc...mostly 2 vehicles per car (400 vehicles easily) A few months ago someone posted a video here of a train carrying tanks, and that sucker must have lasted 10 or 12 minutes!! The maker of the video had gotten stopped at a railroad crossing, and was commenting that it was the longest train he'd EVER seen, regardless of cargo. There was all SORTS of speculation here at GLP about the train, its' destination and the purpose of all the tanks, etc., since it was pointed out that the tanks were NOT painted in "desert camo" as they would be if they were bound for Iraq/Afghanistan. (Someone suggested that). Never heard anything more about it, but it WAS unusual and puzzling. "I have come to the conclusion that all news should be treated like 9/11, assume it is a psyop with actors participating in a staged event complete with props, until proven otherwise, in which case assume whatever is being recorded, reported, televised, is distortions/lying by omission/outright lies, until proven otherwise." - Anonymous, 4-13-12 |

Soldiers can be flown around easily...land vehicles are slow assets to move. some drink from the fountain of knowledge, others just gargle |
