Trains are cool... I've never been on one (don't travel hardly at all), been on airplanes a few times though... When I go traveling somewhere in the US I think I'll take a train next time, looks like fun. I mean, if I'm not in any hurry and am just going for the experience. It's about the journey, you know? With trains you get to relax, hang out and meet some new people, and see the country close up as you cruise through it. All you see on a plane is clouds.
I just hope, that given the current fiscal situation, that the Obama administration will keep US passenger rail service from being worse that third world country standards.
Fantastic video, really nice and different perspective after seeing all my friend's videos of the Starlight they shot at the loop and various places nearby!! Meets were great! And, the passing Metrolink "What are you guys, a special" just cracked me up, LoL!! Great video cchan006, thanks for sharing your trip!!
Dude when you have a chance check out my youtube channel. I shot video of this southbound train 11 & northbound Train 14 on the loop. I fallowed the southbound train into Soledad Canyon. BTW: Dang nice vid! 5 stars!
Wow!!! Not as good as being there, but way better than paying $200-$400 a ticket for the private cars at the end. Excellent footage of the loop, and I like all the meets as well.
why did people put graffiti on trains?.

Thanks for sharing this rare footage of Amtrak in the Tehachapi pass.
Saw the loop from the ground back in 1988.
Anybody and everybody that has an appreciation for big time mountain railroad needs to make the pilgrimage Tehachapi !!

We need high speed rail considering the size of our country. Taking the train would be just as fast and cost less to get from City to city.

@Aobasakura And run them on the Tehachapi loop? Sure! :P
