On the Nellis Air Force Base Bombing Range in western Nevada appears to be a locomotive and train on a short stretch of track. Here's the best view of it:

Bombing Range Train

I presume it is not narrow gauge, but there's no way to tell. Nearby "buildings" appear to be made out of shipping containers and I'd guess that is what the train is carrying.
In earlier photos it appears as if the locomotive is on the tracks, but the latest photo it looks like it took a hit.

Anyone know anything about this train????
