Tehachapi Day 3 - Overheating Engine - 4/1/23 - 4k - Four meets! Auto, Manifests, Grain, Intermodal

Tehachapi Day 3 - Overheating Engine - 4/1/23 - 4k - Four meets! Auto, Manifests, Grain, Intermodal. Today was the day that had the most traffic and I was only going to be here another morning before heading home, so this was great timing. I always hope to get at least five trains per day, but I hope for 8 to 15 (depending on the time of year and the rail line). It was awesome to get so many meets because let's face it, two trains are always better than. I hit plenty of spots too. Woodford, Walong, Bealville, Sandcut and Caliente. Even though the line was shut down for three to four hours, it was a great day (the other days were good too, but today had tons of traffic).
It looked like the one engine was overheating, but I couldn't say for sure. That train stopped at Rowen for probably three or four hours as another train was going to drop an engine off, but ended up not needing to drop off the extra engine as the overheating unit cooled down after sitting there three to four hours. Thanks for commenting, watching, liking and subscribing. Almost at 500 subscribers, which I didn't anticipate being near for another couple of years.

Thanks airing and sharing the outstanding video with magnificent locomotives. Railfanning endeavors are promising. Bliss

Thanks Rol. Glad that you liked it. Plenty more to come as I am finally getting to watch some trains out in Northern Arizona next weekend.

Fantastic catches and video from this area of the country. We enjoyed watching and have a wonderful rest of your Saturday.(Steve)

[@Atsf1976]

Thanks as always. Two weeks till I get to go out and railfan again and I can hardly wait.

[@richardk5849]

G’day and thanks again. A great place to watch and film trains from and your captured it perfectly with some really great sound as well which is always appreciated. Agree great timing with a Sunday morning coffee Australian time.

Thanks as always Richard. Two weeks till Flagstaff. I've been missing trains this summer like usual, but I'll be back out there soon enough. How do you like to drink your coffee? I only have one more day to edit for Tehachapi and it'll be over.

@@Atsf1976 Yes I’m jealous about Flagstaff. We are taking a vacation later this year but not the US this time. Maybe next year. My coffee? I’m pretty boring with what we call a “flat white”. I live near Melbourne which according to so many websites is one of the best places in the world for coffee but I don’t experiment much! Enjoy Flagstaff!

[@Atsf1976]

@@richardk5849 bummer to hear that, but the trains will still be running next year if you visit then.

[@AlikStansberry]

Nice mix of power you got!
I don’t think I’ve seen any unit overheat like that before, especially surprising to see from a rebuilt Ex ATSF.

[@Atsf1976]

Thanks. I was just lucky. That train ended up stopping for a few hours at another siding before proceeding on to Tehachapi and east to Barstow.

Romans 10:9- If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. EPHESIANS 2:8-10 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” 1 John 1:8-10 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. iThe rapture is imminent! John 14:6 “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

What does this have to do with trains?
