UP Military train - BNSF Tier 4 foreign leader - Hubbard, Oregon

A few weeks ago, 'Railfan Noah' and I were caught off guard railfanning by the catch of the year here on the Brookyln Sub in Oregon. This is a UP train headed up to JBLM (Joint-Base Lewis/Mcchord), passing us in Hubbard Oregon.

Awesome catch!! That is totally a rare sight on the Brooklyn Sub, especially with a BNSF Tier 4 leader! Glad you caught it!

That's one hell of a catch! Love the train even though it's nothing special about the movement just the 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team; 2/7 Infantry Divisions returning to JBLM as you mentioned after NTC training @ Ft Irwin, CA. What I love about it is that absolute awesome assortment of vehicles on the train. Typically you get all the same or similar military vehicles. But here you have a Hodge podge of LMTV trucks, HEMETT trucks, M-ATV MRAP, Strykers, M9 Ace dozers. MLRS Rocket Launchers, M777 Howitzers, hummers.
