Kind of looks like some futuristic science fiction train, doesn't it? It reality, these are simply wind turbine blades being transported to northern Colorado for a wind farm.

Great catch and excellent coverage of a most unusual train on a very uncooperative weather day. As F.H. used to say, "Now we know the rest of the story". Thanks for your efforts and keep up the good work.
