- Watch in HD! I'm now in western Michigan once again, but before my father and I left on our roadtrip across the country, we spent some time in the LA Basin catching trains in and around the area. Featured in this video are trains curving through Walnut, California, Metrolink action on the San Gabriel and Perris Valley subdivision, and, in extremely rare footage, UP and BNSF trains making their way through the burn zone of the Blue Cut Fire, which has since been closed off for an entire year by the forest service!

Your train videos are some of the very best on the net. Very well done . stunning vistas very relaxing to watch. Well done sir!!!!!!!
Excellent
The burn area at about 47 minutes, was quite a sight to see. Thanks for sharing.
Very good catches!The scenery and coloring is clear and great depth.
I love your footage! I'm a railfan in Australia and enjoying a lot of American trains on TH-cam lately. Especially the BNSF trains in Cajon Pass and Tehachapi
Greetings from the USA- glad that you enjoyed the footage!

Awesome video! I wish I could go to California some day, maybe next year. lol
If you want to see Cajon, you will need to wait until a year or more from now. The access to the Pass has been extensively limited due to the fire.
Great video!
Great trainspotting footage! Big like and i subscribed to your channel 😊👍🏽

Thanks Juha! Check us out on Facebook at RailfanJunction for photos.
Wow... that fire... or fires.. left a real scorched earth...! Guess it ws more devastating because of the drought in California...?
Cheers
Im inspired,i'v never seen such a committed rail fan.i need to get some lenses,my country Botswana is not well represented infact South Africa and Zimbabwe are the most represented in rail fanning in the continent
so my friend how do you select a perfect spot for shooting especially when you dont want interference particularly from thieves
Coal train going up San Tim canyon haven't seen that in years
It is actually fairly regular if you are at the right place at the right time. The coal goes from Utah to Rillito, AZ, which is a cement plant just outside of Tucson.
on those comute trains do they lease or barrow there units.
Another great video----but whoever is standing next to you with the machine gun camera--------tell them to stand somewhere else or buy a video camera.
Sorry but we take both photos and videos and there is no way to mask the sound of the camera.
Thank you for your honest reply.For someone who likes to hear these locomotives work hard, it was slightly annoying to hear rapid fire camera shots just as the train approaches. My problem not yours. Keep up the good work.
It is just as frustrating for us and we cringe every time we hear the shutter go. Its unfortunately just the nature of trying to do both and I apologize.
Extremely limited? Looks to me you walked all over now - restricted places.
The forest service closed off most of the National Forest a few days after we went through there. It was opened temporarily after the fire was put out to allow maintenance workers access to the power lines (there were quite a few that were downed in the fire) and other such things.
The land itself is passable in terms of walking but I believe that it was closed both because of it now being what would be classified as a fragile ecosystem, as well as the potentiality for mudslides and flash flooding later in the year.
