Reminds me of when the rocket trains went through Heavener, OK. About 2 months before each space shuttle launch, they'd go through, then about a week after, they'd come back through empty.

that is a Delta IV CBC by the way. The rest of the images are on NASASpaceflight.com L2 section, but for some reason all of those space guys dont care about a train shot that much.

Ah ok. Guess a train doesn't mean much to them.
