The Army base scenes starting at 03:42 could be Fort Hood, Texas (Camp Hood at the time). Camp Hood was established to be a Tank Destroyer training base, and those are M-10 Tank Destroyers being loaded. The train at 05:30 also appears to be in that same general area. It could have been from Killeen to Belton if eastbound, or anywhere west of Fort Hood on the Lampasas Subdivision.
Short clips of this film appear regularly on the BNSF video network shown in crew terminals. This restoration is a much better print, though. Nice job!
