That's an old BNSF B40-8, from the video that is either M331 or M332 depending on if it was heading East or West, if it was heading East on M332 it was almost certainly headed to Larry's Truck & Electric or LTEX in MacDonald, Ohio who repairs and leases engines, if it was heading West on M331 it was likely coming from LTEX and sold to another railroad or for scrap.

I think LTEX is pretty good about getting their mark spray painted on units they bought?

the move was heading east ( my bad )
i knew she was a -8 however i fail to keep track of their location or how to define the consists
knew about LTEX just wasn't sure if they were or not heading to MacDonald or not
