- Enjoy a virtual cab ride over Tehachapi Pass at the La Mesa Model Railroad Club / LMMRRC. This video was shot a couple years ago with a small HD camera mounted ahead of a train running westbound. Come visit us at the San Diego Model Railroad Museum (sdmrm.org) to see the ongoing progress as we complete scenery on the east end of our railroad.

très belle et grandiose maquette de train continué comme ca❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Impeccable!!!!
It's amazing how much a painted scenic background walls add to a layout.
I grew up in San Diego. My dad used to take me to the old building before it moved into the current one. In the 1980s it was fun to watch the beginnings of the layouts, but wow how far they have come. Can't wait to visit again
Es ist ein Genuss, hier mit zu fahren.
Much of the "finished" scenery is just breathtaking. Kudos!
It shows that a lot of great scenery is as good as buildings and people and this is done so wonderful thanks for the ride!!
I love the wide open layout, so different from most model railroads with trackage running all over and on top of each other. This makes the train and trackage look like part of the scenery, possibly taken from a real-world location, instead of the scenery just being added to the trackage to make it more 'realistic.'
Google "Tehachapi Loop"
MAGNIFICENT! Some of the best terrain I've ever seen.
These cab ride remembers me sitting as an Engineer on a hard working freight Train at Tehachapie Loop. I was a little bit shocked at 3:00, when three 'Goliaths' where coming up behind the curve! The Video gives a realistic impression of your wide country from the area as modelled. - In Germany we see often overloaded layouts like the famous 'Wunderland' in Hamburg. Our countryside here in the middle hills was well designed as the 'Modellbundesbahn' in Bad Driburg, now new in Brakel
Thanks for posting. Last time I was there was about 7 years ago, and the upper loop track was in and running but no scenery was in place yet. They have really expanded it since, and the base scenery is coming along nicely.
Wonderful Layout, Nice K5LA horns . Perfecto!👍🎯
Beautiful the scenery makes the layout
Superior scenery and track work! It's a joy to watch.
凄い!こんなにスケールの大きいジオラマの動画、初めて見ました。素晴らしいです!
どうもありがとうございました! (エラーを許してください-Google翻訳によって行われます)
The LMMRRC is HO scale. The scenery is built with REALLY strong bases. I have personally observed two occasions (including one last week) when a QUALIFIED club member walked out onto the scenery to re-rail equipment on the Tehachapi Loop that was out of reach from the aisles. No damage to the scenery by this maneuver was detectable.
Joshua Jimenez you took the kids lol love you.
Wow that is a HUGE layout☺
Excellent rail movie!
After watching nsmodelert24's youtube tour and your "cab ride" I am speechless
Nice layout.. enjoyed the ride along
Greetings from England,
Beautiful back screen, looks like real painting was involved, well done. Great to see 'wide open spaces' depicted rather than a huge layout with masses of track work crammed in. Excellent. You may take the rest of the day off.
All of the back drops were hand painted by one gentleman in the club.
except for the screaming kid, this video was awesome! thanks for posting!
I take my son here all the time!!!
An den Strommasten gehören noch feine Drähte gespannt. Das erhöht die Realität der Stromleitungen. Man kann diese dann auch für weitere Funktionen, wie zum Beispiel Lichter für Straßenlaternen verwenden oder Beleuchtungen in Miniaturhäuser....
Who is watching on 2x playback speed like me? ✌️
KI.LINDO Parabéns 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
no mention of what camera you used...
Thank you so very much for posting this video; I've always wanted to see a cab-ride view of this layout as there are parts not visible from the viewing areas. I've been to the SDMRM a handful of times over 20+ years (and always gravitated to LMMRRC's and SDMRA's layouts). Sadly, I haven't been since summer of 2014. During that visit, I was graciously allowed a behind-the-scenes tour of SDMRA's SD&AE layout and it was amazing. Unfortunately I have my doubts I ever will visit again as my father (who lived in SD) passed from cancer 3 years ago and I live on the East Coast... Might I request an updated cab-ride video (to see what's changed)? Maybe a cab-ride video of the SD&AE layout, too? Thanks again!!
I can't help but wonder what if John Allan was still alive to see this. Imagine seeing his Gorre & Dephetid from this perspective:)
Hat sich in der Zeit nach 2019 im Weiterbau was getan?
No dynamic brake whine......that's sad.
Great ride! Putting you on my next tour of Balboa Park!
Scale? How do you reach parts of the RR? Beautiful scenery. Great track work.
The railroad is HO scale, 1/87 actual size. Some areas of the railroad are accessible via lift out panels.
This is a without parallel - certainly a lot more train than my little second hand Marx tin plate layout I was given many years ago. But I'm particularly interested in the structure of this build, I'm seeing lots of plywood and newspaper and expanded foam; considering the potential for fire wouldn't it have been better to use non combustible material instead, perhaps a plaster base material on wire lath?
We've used a bit of everything, and are going through a museum-wide fire alarm improvement process which should be complete soon.
My wife has been a florist for 35 years and it never occurred to me to use floral foam to hold/store trees. 7:45
Hier soll mal eine ganze Stadt gebaut werden: 11:39
At 5:18, the crew didn't stop and proceed at restricted speed until the leading wheels passed the next governing signal and that signal is a favorable signal! Wait a second...oh, this is a *layout*!!
That must be a very large space! How do you afford it?
Okay, I admit I fast-forwarded my way through this impressively long trip, but I did not see any industries or switching opportunities beyond a couple of four-track (or so) yards. Did I just miss them, or is this layout very different from every other one I've seen?
This is a prototype layout...most of the running is thru a remote area of southern California with no lineside business. Google "Tehachapi Loop"...It's a remarkable version of the real thing!
Some people just like to run trains.
The 'KI' Local worked Mojave-Tehacahpi and returned, some days could work as far as Caliente or Bena if there was work there. The main work for the KI was switching out the large cement plant at Monolith. The packing sheds of Edison and Arvin branch each hand their own switcher or road switcher which handed the work there. The SP Locals are covered in this blog post. nightowlmodeler.blogspot.com/p/freight-symbols-over-tehachapi-pass.html

Greetings from Red Wing Minn. Just asking what model railroad club was the movie Model Railroading Unlimited taken on? Is it still around. Just wondering. Stay healthy everyone we will get through this together.
Hi David, I had honestly never heard of the movie before your inquiry. As with many things Google is our friend in finding an answer. It was apparently made in the 70s by Model Railroader and starred Hans Conried and Ward Kimball. Given Kimball's appearance, it's safe to assume it was an O-scale railroad. I would be surprised if it still exists. You can watch the movie here though: ogrforum.ogaugerr.com/topic/model-railroading-unlimited-a-fun-film-with-ward-kimball
@@SAMaase614 no the layout was all H.O. trains. Check it out on UA-cam I know you'll like it. I check it out just for the memories. Have a great day everyone.
Nice run through. Video is quite pixelated however. All the fine details are blurred out in this video. Need to get yourself a higher res GoPro or similar. :)
are the searchlight signals at a scale height or are they a little bit taller than what they should be?
Scale
@@AbelG8781 Yeah, each is correct for the location... and each end of siding is different. Most of the intermediates are standard.

to make the video a little more enjoyable to watch, speed the video up 1/4 faster and cut out the klong under the scenery shots. although beautifully done, there isn't much to see. 30 minutes is too long.
No, it isn't.
Ooooops! SPAD at 12:32mins 🙁.
SPAD? I saw the operator advance through a red signal. Is that what got your attention?
@@SAMaase614 In UK rail speak, “SPAD” stands for ‘Signal Passed At Danger’. A definite disciplinary offence, which if repeated, could lead to dismissal.
Where? Other than Bellville, I saw no location I recognized.
I recognized Bealville, and Walong and Woodford and Cliff and Caliente and Sand Cut and Kern Jct. and the Bakersfield Station, but I must have missed Bellville...
Curly, Larry, and Moe at 3:20 ruined the cabride. If you d a cabride, hide the humans..
sounds like a rough sewing machine
or the sound is crappy or the mic is crappy or both
