That was great, I lived in Tehachapi for 19years and moved away last year. I have seen hundreds of Freight trains and I have seen the Ringling brothers train roll through a few years ago, but I have never seen an Amtrak train go through there. Great Video👍
Amtrak makes detours when there is a planned disruption on its regular route such as planned track work. However, in order for them to detour, pilot crews provided the host railroad would have to be onboard as regular Amtrak crews are not route qualified over routes they don't normally run on and it has to be a planned detour so the host railroad can accommodate Amtrak over the detour.

So why was the Amtrak rerouted over tehachapi, never really got the memo
If I recall, most of those cars were being taken somewhere to scrap them.
