The US is preparing for something, watch all of these tanks/apc's on the US rail line. - General

That's a shitload of armored vehicles, I think the US is preparing shit just in case so we aren't caught with out pants down if shit happens. [video=youtube;Qu_nRuDirLs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qu_nRuDirLs[/video]

"what the fack is zees" It's probably just stuff being moved, stop the hype pls

Yeah, let's trust someone not even smart enough to turn their goddamn phone sideways

[/QUOTE] And what exactly would this "shit" be that's going to happen? Do you have any idea of logistics or are you blowing smoke out your ass?

Pretty sure they move those things around like, all the time.

There are literally hundreds of these videos that have been made over the years. Every time someone posts it saying "OMG US IS PREPARING FOR WAR!!!" and nothing happens.

That's an old vid too, I've seen it before.

[QUOTE=booster;44148608]Pretty sure they move those things around like, all the time.[/QUOTE] One time driving from Phoenix to Palm Springs, my mom and I were waiting at a rail crossing and train from Texas was hauling like 200 of those smaller tanks (forgot what they're called). This was about two months after we withdrew from Iraq into Kuwait so I'm assuming it was all stuff they were putting into surplus. Also guessing from the camo and the fact that it's pretty outdated I'd hazard a guess and say it's all exercise equipment.

I'd love to be the logistics guy of these moves to revel in the dumb public reactions.

What is easier: Transporting 70 vehicles by road through and along highways causing massive disruptions to traffic and causing panic each single vehicle with two people each so over 140 people. using god knows how much fuel each one having to be checked to make sure it's road worthy a mechanic team on hand to make sure if they DO brake down that are fixed quickly Food and lodging for all the 140+people because you can be sure there is no way all of them will reach their destination in one day and all at the same time God forbid one gets lost or they take a wrong turn the potential for massive fuck ups is off the charts and will cost an insane amount so that. or... Put 70+ vehicles on 1 train, with two or three people to swap out when one gets tired and give them all a packed lunch for the trip. GEE I WONDER WHICH ONE IS MORE COST EFFECTIVE AND EASIER

Nobody here is debating the costs of this, your post is confusing.

"ANYONE ELSE APPALLED BY THIS? :(((((("

What an idiot, holy hell, had to turn off the video

This is a re-upload. I didn't realize this was already on youtube, I took it off facebook because I found it interesting. Just to clear things up.

This is old and it's apparently sending new toys to Fort Carson because one of 4th ID's brigades is transforming to a Stryker bridgade or someshit. People tried to pass this off as look Obongo is prepping his private force for martial law when it came out and now idiots are trying to pass this off as look were going to war with Russia you're gullible as fuck OP

As a train enthusiast we see these kinds of dumb videos all the time. Some people actually believe that the autoracks used to transport cars from factory to distribution points are FEMA death trains shipping you to a death camp (which so happens to be Amtrak's Beech Grove maintenance facility).

[QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;44148712]That's an old vid too, I've seen it before.[/QUOTE] Well that video was uploaded today 6/3. What you mean is there are more similar videos out there who are older than this one.

I see trains carrying military vehicles all the time, every few months. In Virginia I've seen trains carrying MRAPs, Bradley's, Humvees, and Abrams tanks. I assume they were headed back from deployment since they were heading west from Norfolk (one of the largest naval bases in the world). I also see them in Texas and Tennessee all the time, I assume heading to training facilities at Fort Knox or for storage in bases in San Antonio. Down in Texas, they usually use wide load vehicles, though, which are hazardous and not very cost effective since each semi has two people in it and a follow vehicle also has two people. The US has the largest stock of military vehicles of any country. It's not uncommon to see this.

I see military convoys all the time on the interstate. Humvees, MRAPs, with tanks and APCs on trailers, generally. Spoiler alert: The United States has military bases scattered across the nation, and they ship shit around for training and maintenance.

Civil war.
