LONG BNSF Military train going into San Diego

M1A1/A2 Abrams Tanks, M3 Bradley Tanks, and a bunch of SPGs and other military vehicles. It had also a lot of locomotives on it, including Union Pacific power, which is uncommon to see here in San Diego.

Great catch this was the 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 1st Armored Division, from Fort Bliss, TX. They were heading to Korea for a 9 month rotation.

[@sarge4455]

Rather stay in Texas

[@southwestrailandfire2350]

North or south korea?

[@dcmkris377]

@@southwestrailandfire2350 Well South but with Fat Man in North you never know what he's going to do.

[@dapto234]

A few hundred or more chains needed there to tie that lot down.

[@joebledsoe257]

Thats a lot of BOOM BOOM.

[@Macachee]

I saw a train like this a few days ago in Utah! Wall to wall with those beige tanks and humvees!

[@sunnysiderails397]

Nice catch on the military train!!!

[@Lokomotion060]

Appreciate it!

[@s-o1224]

THATS MY CAR!!!

[@marklanger1627]

I just learned something. I thought the armored units in South Korea used prepositioned vehicles.

[@philliphampton5183]

Poor boys. Bradley NTC rotations hit different. They were riding the pain train not much after lmao

[@katsinthecradle6155]

Suspension as to what is coming up

[@felixthetrainfan4819]

Imagine trains carrying military for WWIII! I hope WWIII doesn't happen here :(

[@Lokomotion060]

Yeah, hopefully it never happens.

[@thenoah8123]

It will never happen

[@daveyboy5416]

The next major world or global war God will be in it and you can just guess who’s gonna win that war!

[@heavydutyrepair64]

Army heavy division

[@CobraEmergency]

Now that was seriously cool. Look at all that kit! And some power needed to haul it too.
I gotta ask, was this a lucky catch or did you know this was coming through? Would love to see something like this.

[@Lokomotion060]

I'm in a Facebook group for watching trains in the San Diego area so I knew it was coming a few hours ahead. You can see trains like this in other parts of the country and actually I've also seen Tanks on flatcars in Germany.

[@CobraEmergency]

@@Lokomotion060 That's pretty cool! Yeah I would've liked to have seen some military train movements like this in Germany. Maybe next time!

[@RealResponce]

Many of these videos popping up week after week heading to California

[@Lokomotion060]

Yeah they usually come down to San Diego around this time of year.

[@afrealestateco.9484]

Its because Chinese will invade from Mexico, Canada and east and west coasts.

[@shannonhiggins6407]

Saw this from Port Hueneme ca.

[@epacm50]

Darn! No NS Gevo units this time.

[@NorthCountyRailfan]

I also caught it at carlsbad

[@rococoart]

this is a quick shot

[@mattnash8628]

Wonder what Battalion is leaving NTC or are they going?

[@adamw4245]

How

[@ilikedirtx22]

Do they ship the .50 cal machine guns and other armaments separately?

[@Lokomotion060]

They might ship them in the vehicles themselves, but I’m not sure.

[@mattnash8628]

Who's got bolt cutters???? 😂

[@Macachee]

They’d send you to Guantanamo so fast for that. 😂

[@si12volt1]

Could be going to The Marine Base Camp Pendelton or the ports of San Diego we have several bases in Calf

[@heavydutyrepair64]

The marine corps doesn't have M1 Abrams tanks & certainly not that many in 1 unit

[@grahamprice3230]

Correct me but The Marine corps certainly had Abraham’s up to quite recently and then re rolled without armour.

[@sabercruiser.7053]

Huuge ❤❤🔥🔥💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@SnazBoogie]

Where are they taking it???

[@Lokomotion060]

Not sure. I think they might be taking it downtown to be loaded onto ships, and maybe shipped either domestically or overseas. I don’t really know though.

[@katrinasutterfield5362]

Look up Australia and Germany there putting these mtfs in place for people here otherwise no exscuses why there on these trains

[@BT-kf4kx]

Rolling coal

[@lindsay0951]

Heading to Poland ???????

[@Lokomotion060]

No I’ve heard these were on their way to South Korea.

[@cl8302]

Are those white???

[@TheFortytillFive]

war is just such a waste

[@Lokomotion060]

I completely agree. Tanks are interesting but what they’re capable of is devastating.
