Clear AFB

With the entire train in view, train 130N is passing the former Clear Air Force Base in Clear Alaska. This used to be a very important radar base that was regularly served by the Alaska railroad, mainly for coal to their power plant. Today this is a Space Force Base that sees no train service of any kind. You have to appreciate the semi uniform train of nothing but 1 cylindrical hopper, Tanks and Pigs heading north with only the DPU splitting the two sections.
