  • Do check out this great video: • Tehachapi Loop in real... [Sony HDR-FX7E] - The Tehachapi Loop is a 0.73-mile (1.17 km) long 'spiral', or helix, on the Union Pacific Railroad line through Tehachapi Pass, of the Tehachapi Mountains in Kern County, south-central California. ..
    The loop gains a total of 77 feet in elevation as the track ascends at a sustained 2% grade.[1] A train more than 4,000 feet (1.2 km) long (about 85 boxcars) thus passes over itself going around the loop...(Wikipedia)

    I love this video. The quiet camera knows allways the best position. Fine the total view at 1:12. Unbeleaveable the long train going uphill from 1:35 to end. I did never seen this long take. What a stress for the couplers behind the locos! Thank You from Germany.

    From the point we first see the the locomotive in this video entering the Tehachapi Loop complex of curves/loop, to the point we see the last car disappear, is about 2.25 track miles. Google Earth and USGA topographical maps show the total gain in height is about 225 feet in the video. The 77 feet Wikipedia mentions is just the tight, about 270° inner loop

      @@Deontjie It is so trains can climb over a mountain range. Freight train lines usually stay below a 1.5% grade. Even with the loop the grade is 2.2%. It would be a lot higher without the loop.

      Actually you need braking downhill, they use dynamic braking which converts kinetic energy into heat by passing it through a high resistance conductor and they use a fan to blow hot air out

    All I can think of is the WEIGHT the coupling on the locomotive has to pull! Not taking into consideration the friction caused by the wheels on the curved tracks and the weight each boxcar has it is almost inconceivable how all this works without breaking down or somethin.
