Hello there! https://www.google.com/maps/@39.6460883 ... 6656?hl=en
Must have been idling as the crossing did not activate on either side as you "drive" away.

Looks like the conductor standing on the front of the engine:

Looks like one of CSX's B40-8s as well, if I had to guess.
They/Them for me, please.

Also a CSX SD70ACe on the end there.

Here is a passenger car in Emmett, Idaho owned by Idaho Northern and Pacific Railroad. At first I thought it was decorated for the holidays, then I realized that it just looks like that because the car is in such bad shape! :oops:
