This is a short Railroad Documentary on the Southern Pacific Railroad's Yuma Subdivision. This is the first episode in a video series called "Historic Rail Lines" where we will cover various different Rail Lines back in their heyday. The Yuma Subdivision is a historic rail line as it connected the west to the east on the famous Southern Pacific Railroad. To this day this is the Union Pacific's main line heading west out of southern California. Watch trains battle the steep grades of Beaumont hill and race across the desert flats to Yuma Arizona. There's plenty of different Locomotive's with Southern Pacific's SD40-2 variants like the famous tunnel motors. SD45's, GP40-2, B-40, and more are shown in this video. Make sure to go subscribe to the different KZbin channels below. I reused their footage to create this train documentary so the video credit goes to them. Other topics include railfan, railfanning, railroad history, mountain railroading, railroading, railroader, locomotives, trains, rio grande railroad, union pacific railroad, santa fe railroad. This is Historic Rail Lines: The Southern Pacific's Yuma Subdivision #railroad

We called the North end of Taylor Yard “Top End of A Yard.” I was a brakeman for SP but we could also work yard jobs as switchman. I have been Top End of A Yard herder.

1998 I went on a golfing holiday to the States my first time to America & on the second day I saw an American freight train & promptly forgot all about golf & spent my time chasing trains + spending a whole day watching trains @ West Colton Yard from the bridge on Pepper Ave We mat a guy called Steve who for work had spent time in England working in the West Country he told us of another location A Diamond Crossing not to far away which we went to it had a cafeteria & shop so my wife sat in the shade while I spent time @ the Diamond & was invited to sit in a car whose driver was listening to the engineers & dispatchers We also went to San Diego Model Railway Museum in the Zoo & spent a fascinating day there looking & watching the model trains

Hi. I'm a cameraman for Pentrex Media. I noticed from 7:47 to 7:53 you used 2 scenes, captured by me, from Pentrex videos. Did you seek permission from Pentrex to use our footage in your video?

Hello, when I worked for Southern Pacific. We changed crews at the yard office located at 291 Gila St. Just east of the Colorado river bridge. Now, they change crews just east on the Pacific Ave. over pass. Which used to be called east yard.
