I guess this is a regular occurrence if you live between Witchita and Renton, but I'd never seen it before (don't spend that much time in Bradshaw, Nebraska where the video was taken)

737 fuselages from Spirit Aerosystems on the way to Boeing.
 
Here's an even more interesting sight OFF the rails...

The next couple of cars after the planes look kinda spooky. I hope the workers aren't in those.

Not really sure why, but this sort of reminds me of the scene at the end of the original Planet of the Apes w/ Charlton Heston...
 
Cool video! Thanks for posting that. I didn't realize that these planes started out as rail cargo. :)

Those contain more parts from spirit, i'm not exactly sure what parts though. I remember after the derailment quite a few folks I know that work for spirit were working a bunch of overtime to replace the lost fuselages. They also had a backlog in shipping as they had to wait for new rail cars to be built.

LOL.

In the old days (the '70s) some creative talent would have made a Rainier Beer commercial out of this.

Those are the next load of pilots being shipped out from Flight Safety.
