My grandparents lived just east of the tracks in San Bernardino, and I could look down the street and see the trains go by. Thank you for posting this. It's great to see and hear those trains again, and remember being a kid.

I too had grandparents 10 blocks on Stoddard, East from , I believe the 27th st. Overpass. I watched the trains from under it until I got hungry and come back. Back then it was SD 24s, Alligators, Vs, GP20s

The operator more than the equipment in this case.

the cajon pass sure had fewer tracks back then.

[@vidwilzvids9587]

That was back when it was a major bottleneck. Thanks for the comments.
