4K - Heavy BNSF and Union Pacific Freight Trains at the Cajon Pass Summit - Military Train Included!

  • Back on Saturday March 18th, I visited the Cajon Pass area for a few hours to test out my new camera, the Sony AX-53. Got there around 10 AM, and initially it was really slow traffic wise. After waiting a bit, the traffic from both BNSF and Union Pacific really picked up and trains were flowing left and right! Got the normal BNSF and Union Pacific action, but a CREX managed to show up on BNSF.
    Union Pacific was the star of the day, sending up a military train with 2 CSX locomotives all the way from Lafayette, LA! It was heading to Yermo, and what a sight that was as it curved along and up the Cajon Pass!
    I stayed mainly at Summit, which is currently undergoing some massive changes right now. Caltrans is embarking on an ambitious project to straighten out the 2 lane Highway 138. Over the next few months and into next year, Highway 138 will be closed in order to remove dirt and realign the road onto a more straight path, which includes bypassing the famous Summit overlook at Big Cut. No word on whether this location will be saved, but it's a shame it has the high chance of going away forever into history.
    Thanks for watching!!

    Excellent video. It really shows the size and scope of cargo being moved through the Cajon Pass.

    All those tanks, what an amazing sight. Nothing like seeing millions of dollars worth of American military equipment being transported across the nation like that. Merica.

    Nice video! Decent shots!!! I'm pleased to see the area beginning to "green up". I was out there in November of last year, and it was still sorta depressing. i agree its a bit concerning as to the future access to the summit area. Is Hill 582 open to general access yet do you know????

    • @oldiesmusic76
      @oldiesmusic76 4 роки тому

      Yeah, that area is dead from about May through November and the winter rains (or snow) usually green it up by Jan-April
