I was just up there last week the whole trip from Bakersfield to Tehachapi is amazing just watching the train from the freeway looks like a giant snake on tracks
I've never been here, but I've been by here a few times in an 18-wheeler! This landmark is a railfans dream! This is the ultimate location to watch the same train for several minutes, turning every angle under the sun! I envy you guys that live near here!
I was born and raised in Tehachapi, CA and visited the loop many times. They use to have a Best Western Mountain Inn coffee shop and they had in the back, an HO scale model of the Tehachapi Loop. As a kid, I loved to put a quarter in and watch the train.
Lived in tehachapi California for several years back in the 90s hope you went inside the restaurant in town that has this railroad train set inside it.
@@gladtv7873 there's a restaurant inside the town of tehachapi that has the layout of the tehachapi loop can't remember the name of the restaurant but for .50 to a dollar you could make the train run . It was very interesting.
I’m here spooled up deep. About 43,617 horsepower and full inter axel wheel lock deployment and sand spreader on the ready. Bout 850,437 tractive drive to dah rail. Let’s go with throttle up. Notch seven please. 1,648 cars long. 44.675 million pounds in weight. Puuuull. Chief engineer 36 years of service
Mind boggling video. Indian Railways has no such type of network. USA freight line constitute about 80%. It is the no.1 railway in the world. Loco horn also frightening and rocking music.
The Tehachapi Loop is a 0.73 miles (1.17 km) long spiral, or helix, on the Union Pacific Railroad Mojave Subdivision through Tehachapi Pass, of the Tehachapi Mountains in Kern County, south-central California. The line connects Bakersfield and the San Joaquin Valley to Mojave in the Mojave Desert. Rising at a steady two percent grade, the track gains 77 feet (23 m) in elevation in the Loop.[1] Any train more than 4,000 feet (1,200 m) long passes over itself going around the loop. At the bottom of the loop, the track passes through Tunnel 9, the ninth tunnel built as the railroad worked from Bakersfield. The line averages approximately 40 trains each day.[citation needed] Due to its frequent trains and scenic setting, the Tehachapi Loop is popular with railfans.[citation needed] In 1998 it was named a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark and is designated as California Historical

No railroad in the history of the world has EVER had "extra" money. Loops like this were built to SAVE money and avoid building very expensive tunnels. That isn't a tunnel in the video, it's just an over-crossing.
This train route have long round shape curve, & in this video we can easily see, 4-5 locomotives are using for pulling these trains, That locomotives consuming lot's of extra fuel, & in this video Shown geographcall condition, according to this condition they can easily make a curve free train route by help of engineering,
@@dhirendrasingh1792 If this were a straight run through the pass they might need 6-10 locos to make it work. Your idea is ridiculously wasteful and I guaran-damn-tee you that the engineers painstakingly plotted the path of least resistance for the route (there are only 6 of these VERY EXTREME solutions/loops in existence so, wherever you see one, it was NECESSARY in order to avoid bankrupting the company via building insanely long tunnels). Another factor you are overlooking is that a LOT of different things have to fit within the confined space of this pass: Railroad, freeway, access roads, power lines, and the California Aqueduct.

Fantastic. Best video I've ever seen of Tehachapi Loop.

@@truenorth3077 What happened to the Inn?
@@4seeableTV I guess it got torn down along with the old bowling alley and they expanded the newer Best Western Hotel. Sad, lots of good memories.
@@truenorth3077 That's unfortunate.

Wow never see such long trains here,the awesome grunt those locos must have? Looks and sounds amazing.

What a beautiful look
I have been to the overlook several times, neat place!

Watch this at 1.5x or 2.0x speed u will enjoy more

Cool! Thanks for sharing!
Where is this place. Nd whhich train is this..country?????
Wow amazing video! Great view, id love to live in one of those houses to witness this all day!
Awesome video thank you for sharing
Great video ! , nice overview on the loop.
Thank you for sharing, Awesome!
Man o man, if at 3:33 to 4:03 does not look like a model train. That is a sick shot, with a great camera, nice!

great video. Fantastic landscape . Thank you from frenchies
~350 miles north (~470 by road) there's another loop, "Williams"...
Seems to be single track though, at least on google maps satellite view.
Amazing video loved it thank you...
I LOVE long distances train journey s
WOW!! Many Thanks! 😊😊
The magic is not only the force of the engines but the humans brain witch design according to Mathematics the loop...the curves and declines etc...
Where's this place located? ???😕😰😰😰😰😰
wow!awesome.good coverage
This train need two stations for halt, because platforms are useless for this....so long
How does the front train pull all that weight???
Wow amazing. What is the length of the train.
2.8 miles long sir.
es un paso muy famoso y el paisaje ni se diga y el grado de dificultad que presenta es el alto grado de ingenieria ferroviaria espectacular!!!!!!!
Very nice video
😁👍🤔how long is this train?
Don't know about this one but trains over a mile long are common in the US.
Watching this is likely to cost me about $10K.....I have been thinking about coming over for a while. This just about makes my mind up.
Wow
Where is that?
World largest train love the train
yah kahan ka railway track hai Jara comments mein batana bhai
Very nice looking which country ?

It's California
Amezing view
Wow Never see such long trains
Nice vedio
Mind blowing
Where is location
fantastic 🇧🇷
Where is this country I want to drive this train
California
Amazing

Any special reason to create a inclined loop rather than a straight tangent route .....anybody?
You should see it right now, its covered in snow
Increíble y sorprendente es algo que demuestra el poder del hombre en la tierra

Ye kaha ki train h
I like it, thanks for sharing #technosonig
Thanks
that must be a 5% grade before it enters the tunnel
i like train vidoes on you tube
In the days of steam were there trains as long as this? Would have really been something to see.
where is of Map
Brrr. I wonder how could that run without any accroc ? I would think it impossible if I didn't see it this very now !
Very nice
In which country this track is ?
Kern County, California, United States.
awesome train tunnel

Some one know where is this place.??
Very cool, not sure why all the hubbub just to go thru a tunnel. Maybe they had a little extra money.

Thats so amazing! O.O
Sem palavras...
where is it ?
@dicky cheema it's definitely not in Bakersfield it's in tehachapi ca. It's literally called the tehachapi loop🤦♀️

Verry nice seen
This train 8th wonder on this planet 😱😱😱
muito bonito esse lugar
what is the purpose of this loop??
To stretch out the hill, decreasing the grade
@@Texassince1836 To catch train Hoppers...
It may be useful for that, but the loop makes the grade a manageable 2.2%
@@Texassince1836 Beautiful area and i totally understand what you are saying about the grade. Trains are amazing...
To make RUclips videos.
Just imagine
WOW
Pls reply kare
thumbs up another great place for railfanin all over USA
