UP 5514 detouring intermodal freight north [HQ]

The first train to detour as the result of a serious derailment and fire on Tehachapi Loop: At 9:37 AM on Sun 21 Feb 2010, a ZLCBR comes through south- central Atascadero CA, and slips behind the northeast base of Pine Mountain. (Click on the response video to see JT's video of this train through Davis CA later in the day).

Good work Paul, thanks for sharing. I remember when intermodal on the coast was common, SP days of course.
