Not the first time Jimmy (MrBeast) has killed a handsome looking geep, someone give him a SD70ACC to blow up and I’ll be happy.

A working steam engine, under steam, would be a much more spectacular thing to blow up. Better yet- two hitting each other head on, like the spectacles they staged more than a century ago.

GRHC - you know every night I can imagine he is in front of his computer screen sitting in his underwear swearing profusely and drinking Blatz beer combing the RailRoadFan website for grammatical errors.

I just want to know what unit it was! It has been confirmed that it is not one of the GSMR units he wrecked earlier this year.
The video was shot at JL Bar Ranch in Sonora, Texas.

Funny enough we know the tank car was PBFX 646016. Formerly owned by Tyson Foods.

Per LocoNotes, the locomotive wrecked was former Rio Valley Switching Company GP7 4159 (originally built as KCS 159).
