4K: BNSF and Union Pacific Freight Trains in the Cajon Pass - Foreign Power, CNW Leader, & More!

- Presented in 4K! Located 60 miles East of Los Angeles, the world famous Cajon Pass is known for it steep, intense, and scenic railroad action. Nestled between Victorville and San Bernardino in the San Bernardino Mountain Range, both Union Pacific and BNSF trains traverse the 2.2% grades of the pass. BNSF's Cajon Subdivision offers 3 mainline tracks that both BNSF and Union Pacific trains use, while the Union Pacific also hosts its Palmdale Cutoff Mojave Subdivision line, exclusively for their trains. Over the past few months, I've collected some footage from around the Cajon Pass. Been lucky to get awesome action, and awesome power as well!
Highlighting the video, in early January 2018 Union Pacific sent a very special treat in the early morning hours. UP 6706 was on point of an empty grain train traveling from Texas to Idaho, with a stopover in Arizona to unload the product. Formerly CNW 8804, the AC44CW is one of the very last remaining engines with the original CNW paint scheme, untouched by the Union Pacific! Along with a friend, we chased this train up the Cajon Pass starting in the Rialto area of the Palmdale Subdivision. After getting on the BNSF at Keenbrooke, the empty grain train headed up the pass and then towards Yermo.
Also included is various BNSF and Union Pacific action along the 3 mainlines of the Cajon Subdivision. Sullivan's Curve located near the middle of the pass is one famous area featured, which offers stunning views as the tracks curve around the rocks and hills of the pass. Got lucky with an awesome train race between the BARWAT and Kaiser Hauler, as well as the Union Pacific North Platte manifest with an awesome consist!
Overall, I only scratched the surface of the amazing Cajon Pass in this video. There's just so many unique and scenic places, the possibilities are endless!
Thanks for watching!

My son is a conductor for BNSF and has been on the San Bernardino to Barstow run many times through the Cajon Pass. Now he's up north in Bakersfield.
Many times! How impressive of your son!
Watching videos from the Cajon Pass makes me homesick! My favorite place to watch trains.
3:01 - what a legendary shot! Amazing video. Love it!
Great video! Thanks for uploading!
I live in Maryland and I've been to Cajon 5 times. It's one of the GREAT train watching spots in America not only for the scenery, but for the volume. The 2 trains "racing" each other at 4:28 was spectacular!
I love your enthusiasm and fresh perspective. I've driven over Cajon pass maybe 200+ times, so I'm a bit jaded, but the dirt trails running high over the pass do make for nice views, like the bend with the two trains.

The Union Pacific comes down the Mojave Subdivision out of Lancaster and Palmdale into Colton Yard. The BNSF comes down the Cajon Subdivision out of Barstow into San Bernardino. The Alhambra and Yuma Subs are Union Pacific. The Yuma Sub comes out of Yuma Arizona to Colton. The Alhambra Sub comes out of Colton to downtown Los Angeles. The San Bernardino Sub is BNSF. It runs from San Bernardino to the Alameda Corridor, and connect to the River Sub via the Redondo Fly Over southeast of downtown Los Angeles.
Great show!!
Thanks for the Amazing Videos !
Absolutely amazing footage, thank you for sharing.
OMG what beautiful landscapes and mighty trains . That Rio Grande loco was just awesome . Australia is a big country but we don’t have this amazing landscape . Cheers from Australia .

THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO BEAUTIFUL LOCATIONS. LOVED THE ACTION AT SULLIVAN CURVE. IF I LIVED THERE I WOULD STAY AT THIS LOCATION THE WHOLE DAY. NICE JOB
Joe Leveille Sir you would love hill 582 better trust me look it up
Respect for the Guys keeping that long Iron Snail under Control over such a steep Canyon. The BNSF Trains are amazing, I like the Design and seeing what a long Convoy they pull up and down is awesome. Greetings from Germany where the Trains are way shorter ;)
The race at Sullivan's Curve at 4:15, now I'm jealous... Lol, awesome content!
The Pocatello end is fantastic!
Oh man, some gorgeous footage around 10:00 especially. Wowie so green!
Thanks, yes very green indeed!

Thanks, I wish we had freight trains like that in France!
Me gustan much los trenes,Gracia por compartir
Being a retired STO in mountain area in PA, I love watching trains on grade being pushed, real railroading.
Impresionante. Muy buen trabajo gracias
Very Impressive video of the trains and scenario!
Nice video Michael!
Thanks Rhett!
Lovely Video .
Great Video ! Thank you for uploading :-) We visited Los Angeles in May this year, but sadly we had no time time for a trip to the Cajon Pass.
Great video! Cajon Pass is awesome. Untouched is a bit a stretch though for UP 6706, with your description I was hoping for a clear C&NW logo still on it.

American freight trains are king of the cargo transportation in United States of America!
Sensacional guerreiros!! 👏👏

Magnifique cette vidéo. Merci de nous la transmettre; Amicalement
That Rio Grand engine behind the two union Pacific's look great.
Great video! Brings back sweet memories from my childhood! We used to travel that route (138) every weekend!
Sehr schön gefällt mir.

Watching this in 4K is fabulous. Thanks for the excellent quality you're providing in these videos.
Жаль, что нет комментарий : ...ТТХ тепловозов, веса поездов и уклоны. Что нагрузка от оси тепловозов выше наших с 23-25тдо 32т, а вагонов до 42т это известно, ведь на одной платформе два АБРАМСа, а это-60+60т. Ещё просмотрев несколько видиков Американских ж д, Яне увидел из труб тепловозов даже небольшого дымка зато наши просторы БАМа и др окутаны этим ядовитым чадом. Сейчас наши ж д стали частными, но ничего не изменилось. Без хозяйственно есть и равнодушие никуда не ушли. На руководящих постах по-прежнему безграмотных руководитель. Я всю жизнь с фанатизмом боролся с этой без хозяйстве горстью, вносил массу предложений по улучшению того или иного, даже выступал с докладом в МПС на научно- техническом совете и в итоге эти корумпрованные чиновники пытались меня уволить по 33й статье, а потом когда не получилось, хотели уволить по не доверию коллектива депо Н.Ургал БАМ ж д. Сейчас я более 20 лет на пенсии, но с со драганием смотрю, что ничего не изменилось в лутщую сторону и таких как я вообще не держат и профсоюзах как раньше были не стало
Nice video.
I remember when we put the patches and renumbered those CNW locomotives
Amazing video 📸 sir🙏
That's the best mix bag video I've seen yet! Rio Grande, huge mixed freight, KCS and CSX! What the hex!? Out here? And a warbonnet to boot and so much more.
É um Baita dum trem vou voltar aqui parabéns 👀
Nice catch with the patched out ex Santa Fe SD75.
Got to love the irony of a former Santa Fe (then later in life) former BNSF SD75M that was sold off to Progressive Rail Leasing ending up under lease operating right back on the same trackage it was sold off from. Go figure...
I'am a traindriver on the iron ore line in South Africa, very nice video, thanks

Do you know what America needs? More trains!
Really Really good !!!!!!!!
I love the two trains in the same shot. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Great work... Almost like a ballet in some later parts!
ME ENCANTO MUCHO EL VIDEO DE L TREN
Great shots at 4:29! I was so hoping that someone had a video from Sullivan's curve of that race. That ex CNW engine must have gone through before I showed up. Either way, great day for railfanning.
Thank you, that was one epic race indeed. The CNW shots were actually from January.
I love bnsf trains
Wow, Awesome video! I used to wonder how's the track terrain looked like from the I5, now I know!
Wow nice video
Big Ups to you Mike! great Vid!!!! love it!
I eye ud
Great video with great locations. Love to see the American countryside as well. All the best.Mick U.K.
Show ❤ apaixonado por trens.
I see that long train being pulled up that grade with just a few locomotives, around those bends, and I don't know how it is possible!
Two in front, two behind.
Nice 👏

New Metrolink's 10/Victor Valley Line Extension will be second proposed route line a mainline SCRRA track of the commuter trains is coming soon in 2027 or 2028.
Just discovered your Channel. Fantastic Videos, makes our Freight Trains in UK look pathetic, lucky to get more than 25 cars on ours & rarely a double-header. ROGER 😎 UK 🇬🇧
Michael loves trains -4k video
Me-Watching in 720p due to poor connection
You are a good videographer....
I also love trains
Actually cajon pass is northeast of LA.
I've driven that pass hundreds of times in a big truck, both northbound & southbound.
Don't forget, that pass is also the site of a very deadly train crash many years ago.
Wonderful my brother. Thanks
These trains and routes exclusive for freights fascinating
Nice video Michael The Train At 10:55 Was The Daygo
Ôi quá tuyệt vời xịn cám ơn ban Nha
beautiful shots
Michael loves his trains!
I ki
I like so much the scene of train
Such great RR action. Here in the PNW it is all pumpkins and armor yellow. Pretty boring. Love seeing the variety from road names past, especially the warbonnets.
Thanks Michael. I've sat in Cajon pass close to the tracks watching trains go by. Some may think it's silly, but I enjoy it as you do. Appreciate the footage!
Me gusta ver esos video de trenes por que de niño los veías cargando caña de azúcar en mi país República dominicana
I love comments about the "beautiful scenery". It makes sense to me that Cajon pass is a train watchers gem, but I never though of it as particularly beautiful compared to other passes. The scenery in Cajon pass is more rugged and warmer than lusher and colder passes in Norther California, or perhaps Utah and Colorado. It's more like a desert. The thinner vegetation in So Cal exposes any and all man made structures, where a densely forested or snowbound pass either conceals such structures from view, or else adorns them with decorative snow and fauna, and in that sense Cajon pass is perhaps not as pretty as other passes I've seen. On the other hand, some people don't even live near mountains, or deserts for that matter, so this landscape could be downright "exotic" from their perspective. I will say the Cajon pass & other So Cal passes, though more "rugged" and less green (or snowy) than passes farther norther, can likewise be more dynamic in appearance, such as spring time after heavy rain seasons, or when they do have good snow.
Nice. 2-fer at 4:30 & 19:40. Not real close but great locations. Thanks for sharing.
never forget those crashes.
Great video. What camera did you use?
nice
