West Texas & BNSF Railway

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : The vast but loosely defined area known as West Texas has only one city (El Paso) and that is at its extreme western end. Apart from that, the most recognizable landmarks of this region are the railroads that cross it and the giant wind turbines built to capture the strong winds which sweep it. Tampa Randy created this amazing drone video, capturing a stretch of the BNSF railway line and a backdrop of gigantic windmills. Texas has one of the world's largest fleets of wind turbines, most of which are concentrated in the western part of the state.
