I've been to this location so many times, and this is a truly great video. Well done!

[@Railroad_Boys]

love the sd 40-2😆😆

[@TrainTrackTrav]

I'm quite fond of them too. They look good, sound great, and smell FANTASTIC!

[@Dazzalinco1]

Would be bloody awesome to build a house next to the yard and watch the trains go in and out.

[@ChaseaTrainIndiana]

Cool video!

[@TrainTrackTrav]

Thank you very much!

[@Rbyrd77]

First time I have ever seen a Wal Mart container on a train.

[@TrainTrackTrav]

Yeah, it's not something you see very often, making it a bit of a novelty. But that's one less truck on the freeway.

[@burnuts007]

Great shot! Lots of power up front here! Awesome action! I'm subbing up I won't miss out again!

[@Taurus-zv4ef]

Very nice video, greetings from Croatia :-)

[@Mercatoyd]

[@UnionPacificRailFan]

[@UnionPacificRailFan]

[@judefernandez827]

TrainFan8444 Thank you for this beaut video I'm from Melbourne Australia but originally from India where my father was a motorman on the Indian Rail So lovely to see scenes of my favourite country America Go USA

[@Sharadabrat45]

Nice Trav, so I know where to find you when you aren't hanging with us weird people.

[@TrainTrackTrav]

Oh yes indeed. LOL! Anywhere there are tacks is a good place to look for me if I'm not in town. :)

[@Rustyrailhead]

Nice video. I've been passing by this hill on the East end of the yard since the mid 1950s and they still haven't got it level. Curious as to camera used. FPS, Flash memory , Makers?

[@Cinziaking]

So I just watched a video on the attempt to move big boy 4018 and want to know where it's located?

[@TrainTrackTrav]

4018 is on display in Frisco, Texas.

[@redshoesgirl]

i was looking at the location on googlemaps and there doesn't seem to be a sidewalk!

[@TrainTrackTrav]

Nope, no sidewalk. Never has been. We just stand on the side of the bridge. The road isn't very busy, and railfans have been coming to this location for decades.

[@redshoesgirl]

@@TrainTrackTrav great, thanks so much!

[@speedozx10]

oh wow (but was this a cellphone?) What city is this?

[@Edyth_Hedd]

Pepper Avenue, Colton, CA. Look it up on Google maps.

[@speedozx10]

thanx Edith

[@TrainTrackTrav]

This was shot with a Sony DSC-H300.

[@speedozx10]

OK my bad thanx TTT, nothing wrong with that

[@andrewholt4098]

What town is pepper loco depot in please?

[@TrainTrackTrav]

This is in Colton, California. The bridge I was standing on when I filmed this is the Pepper Avenue overpass. Hope this helps.

[@Rustyrailhead]

Colton Ca.

[@1990sunbird1990]

if this is a union pacific's rail yard how come there's a BNSF locos in the yard

[@TrainTrackTrav]

BNSF runs a daily train to and from Barstow from this yard. It's not an uncommon sight at all. :)

[@ryszard2670]

OK

[@wobblinwheel]

What's with all the "luggage"? I've stayed a WEEK at motorcycle rallies, and never needed more than I could strap to my sissy bar! What are these guys doing to "work up a sweat" that they need all these extra clothes? 🤔 I'm just curious...

[@pizzasubs]

those are some huge fans on the top of those engines, guessing those are for to help keep the engines cool, just the the fans on vehicles engines?>?

[@TrainTrackTrav]

Correct. Cooling fans are the rear most ones. The other fans are dynamic brake fans.

[@MikeInPlano]

Not real familiar with the geography. Where is Pepper Avenue?

[@dutchboy25al]
