- This video will give you coordinates and a look at some of the places where you can easily access some great viewing spots on the Tehachapi Pass. These are also places where it is unlikely you will encounter any problems.
I hope it helps!
Thanks for this video I want to watch train all over the Tehachapi pass
Great video Mark! With plenty of good advice. Some railfans make it harder for the ones that respect the railroads property and don't scare the crews. And a UP train with 3 EMD's cool!!
Mark, your videos are always informative and helpful, but this one is the best! I've been lucky enough to visit your 'backyard' many times, but your inside perspective is really helpful. And one of the best parts of railfanning places like Tehachapi is meeting folks from all over the world! So thanks for helping me meet some really cool railfans I'd never run across otherwise.
Excellent presentation Mark. Those 3 EMD sounded great 😊👍😎
Fish and Game has chased me off of tunnel two, even though a railroad officer has encountered me there and let me stay. For some reason Fish and Game has taken an interest in railroad security.
No, just this ranger. He's an a-hole who enjoys what little authority he has.

Keep the videos coming, Mark. Thanks! 👍🙏
Thanks Mark, a very timely video for our visit to Tehachapi in May. I will print out a map with the GPS spots marked out so I won't have rely on my written list which I will also make just in case. I am a belt and suspenders kind of guy. A very informative video and appreciate you recommendations as where to stay away from as well as the good spots. Keep up the good work and be safe.
Enjoyed watching an informative video. Have a wonderful rest of your Wednesday mark.(Steve)
15:02 that was a nice train with 2 T4 EMD locomotives. That was actually my very first spot i caught a train my first trip out there.
HEY!!! It's cool to see water in the creek I've been to that area a few times and never seen water.
Thanks! My wife and i will be visiting in May and it's good to know where we should go.
That looks great! Have been twice to the loop and the tracks around and it was a lot of fun to find good spots. However, I am sure, I’ve missed some. Many thanks from Germany.
Great video, appreciate your no bullshit info and train coverage. The loop gets a little "busy" so your approach is great thank you
How unusual to have only EMD power on that train through Cable on the headend.
Also the salt dale spur is now fenced in with a barbed wire fence
"Stay away from the tracks," is also highly recommended due to the possibility (rare) that something is dragging pr part of a load falls from a car. Expect the worst and realize that you may not be able to outrun what you think you can.

Did you hear about Railfan and UA-camr Hobo Shoestring who has been missing for a Couple of Weeks and Hobo Shoestring is from Tennessee and he is a Railfan
Just to let you know Mark
Awesome Video of Tehachapi Pass Mark
💯💯💯💯💯💯❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I hadn't heard that. I hope he is okay. Thanks for checking it out!
I just read he was found dead in a lake in Tennessee
As an engineer, the only people I want to see in an orange or yellow vest along the tracks are MofW and signal employees, or contractors out there working with a crew in conjunction with a Form B or work area that is listed in a Form C. Ive never looked at a vest and thought "Oh that must be a railfan so he's good." Its more like, "Ok, who the heck is this and did I miss something?"
That's a good point that I will make in future videos!
I was just in the Mojave UP yard and out of the way and was asked to leave What a bummer
Yards are a different story
Mark very great and informative video on railfanning tehachapi! I am curious, and I think I asked this question before but, what happens when you go down towards the Chavez center near east Rowen! I have tried railfanning there twice in the past and have had guys chase me out of there! Is that area off limits to the public or anything???
East Rowen is west of Keene past the fire station. West Woodford is adjacent to the Chavez place, and they are pretty sketchy about people being down there.
