The Tehachapi Loop further south has viewing spots where you can park and watch and see the entire train at once as it winds around the loop. Spectacular.
I use to go at night, have a campfire & beer, it would be so quiet. It was really nice when an EB came uphill, you could here it for miles. It would be dead quiet, super loud then back to dead quiet in about 10 minutes.
@@kevinlynch1227, a 20' ascent or descent in railroading is quite a bit. Note that the total elevation change should be calculated between the trains' entrance to & exit from the loop, which will be greater than the difference in elevation between 2 "parallel" parts of the curve.
Not being aware of the layout of the loop, my initial reaction to the opening shot was, "Well, that's a mediocre shot." but when the same train came into the shot AGAIN on the lower lever, which was PERFECTLY framed btw, I thought, "And this shot just got BADASS!!" Thank you for sharing this fantastic video!!
This is the amazing railroad tracks up and down. Very beautiful especially when the train passes on both rails. Thank you, I hope your channel will be more successful.
I use to hop on the train all the time. I was on an EB, came thru this little tunnel and the lead locomotive was right above me. Conductor just looked at me, all back in the pre 9-11 days.
I first seen the Williams Loop on a episode of Trains and Locomotives on RFDTV. the episode was -' Into The Feather River Canyon'. To me it is so relaxing watching this. Thanks for the Great Video!
Great shots Trains32! Been there a couple times myself back in the late 90's and early 2000's. Great place to visit. Not a lot of traffic when I was there, but a few trains anyway.
Amazing how many comments suggests that some people don't get the concept or the dynamics of this construction.....Makes me feel better about myself !!!
..... Fascinating.......... It brings back memories from the 40s and 50s but now I have a better appreciation for the trains and the engineering that produced everything. It's hard to imagine how complex things are and how much things have changed. Next thing will be high speed ''trains'' or small ''trains'' that operate like a horizontal high speed elevators. . . . maybe and maybe not

The rain drops before the train, then after the train passes gives and an eery quiet... very cool.
A shout-out to that greatest generation and that which preceeded them. I'm in awe of the marvels that we take for granted.
Superb shots 👍🏻
that is a cool place to watch trains. and when you see it top and bottom , well that just makes it cooler. and the rain just tops the video off
the sound of raindrops in the beginning gave a special touch
Wow. What a beautiful and peaceful spot to hang out at. Just the peaceful rain, and the trains.
I use to go at night, have a campfire & beer, it would be so quiet. It was really nice when an EB came uphill, you could here it for miles. It would be dead quiet, super loud then back to dead quiet in about 10 minutes.
Perfect with that last train!
The timing of the DPU at the end and the Front engine crossing over each other was perfect!
What does the timing of the DPU mean? Does this train go around in a huge circle in order to descent about 20 ft??

@@kevinlynch1227 The DPU is the trailing unit and it's super cool how the DPU is right over top of the head units at 14:35.
@@sbrunner69 Oh .. OK. Cool. Thank you SO much SCOTT I appreciate it
Diesel locomotives are so cool. I could watch them all day.
Your Royal Highness , yeah they are

Thank you for sharing this fantastic video!!
Fantastic to see that. 90 years from now somebody will be showing that video thank you 👍🇺🇸
Interesting, like a snake chasing its own tail. Also amazing how powerful the locomotives are to drag and push so many cars on the loop.
I've watched this over and over and over again just still amazed at the marvel of this loop
Only one thing amazes me more than trains. And that is outer space. Great video.
I have been thru the double loop pass over the Canadian Rockies. What a site.
Beautiful
That is so cool! I like when the leading units go under the distributed power unit (DPU)
One of my favorite places to railfan. Thanks! Some great catches there. Nice to see California getting some rain.
Amazing rail movie! Beautiful images with freight trains and nice scenery! Good work! Thumbs Up
Greetings from Romania

I am "impressed".Make more videos like this.I subscribed to your channel.Keep the train videos coming !!
Thank you Arlon Baas for your answer and explanation. As a newbie railfan, I learned a lot, thank you again.
Amazing place! Great vídeo.
Thanks for the segments between trains with the sound of the rain!
An automatic thumbs up at 14:30 alone. Great view! Great time to be there.
Exactly....
Isaiah Jackson u fxvvv
Definitely
Phenomenal footage. Thank you for sharing!
Cracking good captures. thank you
OK seeing NW and Southern grain cars still running and together is really cool!
This is the amazing railroad tracks up and down. Very beautiful especially when the train passes on both rails. Thank you, I hope your channel will be more successful.
that is such a cool perspective, seeing the same train twice up close
Check out spiral tunnel on CPR route Rogers Pass, in British Columbia.
What a great video! Thank you for sharing that!
Helix loops are so awesome

Amazing clever engineering made Williams Loop
Wonderful video! Thank you for sharing. Like and subscribe. Greetings from Russia.
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Great stuff as always,good to see the rain too!! cheers from downunder.
Thanks for posting this. I love the Western Pacific and to see the unmolested WO FMC box car @ 11:08 was awesome!
That was nice to see as I grew up in Quincy 10 miles to the west.
great catch and in the rain, your lucky every time I used to go their i would maybe get one train,,,
Great video! 😊Thumbs up as always, Thanks! 👍
BaltimoreAndOhioRR up. Cute ikjjbbnnb
I have been to the Tehachapi Loop but didn't know about this one. Thanks for sharing.
I learned something new! Thanks for uploading
that is an awesome engineering marvel
EXCELLENT VIDEO.
Yeah, great vid, thanks for sharing!
Excellent video!
Great and interesting footage! Greetings from Italy. Ciao, Stefano.
Awesome video, well done!
Great Job, and you even caught an old C&NW unit!!! :)
Awesome shots!
Doesn't get any better than that! Love the rain!
Looks like I'm not the only one who likes to railfan on a rainy day lol. Great video! I just subscribed to your channel.
I want to watch "Williams Loop" from above. Awesome video. Your channel is great.👍😊
that's so cool, I need to go there some day
I first seen the Williams Loop on a episode of Trains and Locomotives on RFDTV. the episode was -' Into The Feather River Canyon'. To me it is so relaxing watching this. Thanks for the Great Video!
I'm over here watching 5 year old videos of trains doing a loop in Nor*Cal. Slow day at work...
all these train spots on youtube are so cool. i wish we had spots like this in phoenix arizona.
Great shots Trains32! Been there a couple times myself back in the late 90's and early 2000's. Great place to visit. Not a lot of traffic when I was there, but a few trains anyway.
Awesome catch my friend.
thank you for this! enjoyed it very much!
Wow amazing capture brother like this video 👍👌✌️
Now that's cool. I wish I had enough room to do that on my model railroad.
Great video with excellent sound. A drone shot would be a plus! Thanks!!
awesome! thanks for your upload!
I must go see this place in person!!
Amazing how many comments suggests that some people don't get the concept or the dynamics of this construction.....Makes me feel better about myself !!!
I grew up in Quincy so i have seen this dozens of times.
Terrific video, EMD in abundance.
Excellent video, thanks
Outstanding! thanks!

Been through here a few hundred times as a Conductor out of Roseville Ca. with the Southern Pacific and now Union Pacific.
So... if the driver of the frontmost engine sees the last engine, then the winter's gonna be short, right? 😁
Great footage, thanks a bunch!
Awesome
This is awesome! :D
Awesome video !
Fantastic!
Neat video. Thanks👍👍
Fantastic Video!! Just subscribed to you and damn glad I did! Again, Fantastic video!
Nice video! Greetings from Spain
Trains and railway lines and rail workers make me happy. A feeling of togetherness . No nationalities, only Homosapiens.
Excellent! 👍👍👍
would love to see this someday
Shared on my Union Pacific Flag Units page on Facebook
Awesome video thank you
That's out on the Canyon Subdivision. The Keddie Wye is northwest of there.
I am an old (79) CN train dispatcher........thanks WOW!
I never hit a longshot trifecta before. You did!
Wouldn't mind living there....for a little while anyway.
AMAZING!
Amazing. Thanks
Excellent. It looks like some pallets are being used to shore up any 'rock' slides.
Good way to see how the back end of the train is doing as an engineer or conductorr
Una soberbia obra de ingeniería ferroviaria. Muchas gracias.
Whoa, you got connections best loop fotothird train!!
Thanks Mr. Goat !!
Realy super.
Nice to see a AC6000CWs shoving on the rear as well as a CNW up front on the first train
That's cool to see a train on two different elevations like that ..
This scenery looks amazingly realistic.
