CEBX 800 on the Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad north interchange track heading towards the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway in La Grange, Illinois. The car overhang on the curve is awesome! The world's largest operating railroad freight car is carrying a load bound for a refinery in Kansas. I apologize for the shaky camera.

They are stabilizers and breakaways. IF there's a catastrophic accident they will leave the rails first around the giant load. The empty flat cars are just 50 tons. They are like clothespins compared to the giant load of over a million pounds and the carriage that also weighs that much. It's got to go slow, because if that much weight were to go 50 MPH it would probably continue to roll along on the tracks for ten miles as it was slowed down.
