Union Pacific Manifest: Tehachapi Loop, California

[mcglock17]

I counted 107 freight cars.

I could be wrong though.

Wow!

Nice shot!

You couldn't zoom the take any closer?

How far away from the Highway were you?

How far is this loop from the Tehachapi town?

I'd like to go to this place next spring.

@mcglock17 I did not count the number of cars on this train. I could have zoomed in more but I wanted the whole over view shot of the loop and did not want to cut out the loop in the shot.

High way 58 is in the background off in the distance. You can see the cars on high way 58 in the distance. The town of Tehachapi is probably about maybe 10 miles or so from this spot, maybe a little less.

do you know if they run doublestack intermodal trains through it as well as normal intermodal freight

[CoastStarlight11]

@dallas184 Yes they do. Several years ago I shot video of a UP stack train passing through the town of Tehachapi; vid is on my youtube account.
