Driven by this old SP line many, many times. Always wondered what a trip from Bakersfield to Mojave would be like, on this 150 year old right of way. I know now. Thanks for posting. A trip back in time.

Funny watching the vehicles going backward. Enjoyed this ride thru the Tehachipi Mts. and into the desert. Thanks for showing

Very nice. I didn't realize there was a different route than going through the tehachapi loop

It normally leaves Los Angeles northbound and hits the coast for 95 track miles starting at Ventura. It then starts turning inland at Surf. It briefly returns to the coast again at Grover Beach and turns back inland near Pismo Beach for the rest of it's trip up to Seattle. It only detours through Tehachapi Pass when track work is being done on the coastline and returns to the rest of it's original route at Newark....which is about 25 miles southeast of Oakland.

9:58 KingPak Farms (potato packing shed) on the right. I worked there 2 seasons right out of high school (72-73). $2.25/hr., 15 tons of potatoes per day. Good money, as minimum was $1.65. 33:00 All those folks in Caliente had never seen a passenger train before. Treat! Same with Tehachapi.

Glad you liked it! I prefer this version because humans naturally like watching scenery that comes towards us and not away from us. Plus the long climb east is better then the short climb west. That's why the majority of rail fans train watch west of Tehachapi. The other video does have the advantage of sound if that's what one prefers.

.The train route is very beautiful with landscapes, but going back to the video is unnatural ... and also the sound of the train, which gives a beautiful sense of its strength and brutality, is silent ... I hope this same journey will be repeated. in a normal way

Must have been shot from rear of train from Mojave to Bakersfield then played backwards and labeled Bakersfield to Mojave.

You are correct. Its labeled as such in the title screen of the video. If you look in the video’s description, there is the link to the original video ... or simply go to my KZitem home page and it’s right there.

Nicely done. Part of me is envious of not being on that back platform with you all but I'm also glad I was able to be trackside to catch the action. For those interested - here's my trackside video which includes a lot of freight action too kzitem.info/news/bejne/smppv4aBbJdymo4
