Sure wish there were some videos of the early '80's at Colfax. Remember the Espy east bounds shovin' through town in notch 8 with 9 or 10 SD40's and SD45 tunnel motors. And that was before DPU's. Now that was a show!

IMHO, Colfax and Truckee are the best locations for "close & personal" railfanning between Sacramento and Reno. Roseville just doesn't quite cut it.

Roseville has the yard switching though + the Amtrak Capitol Corridor

Your videos are always great to watch. It's always good to run into an old railroad guy and listen to their stories. Great catch on the UP and 822 combo.

Nice! I remember back in November of 2015 I rode through Colfax on Amtrak #6. It's a pretty town.

8 trains in all that time? I live in Fairfield and was hoping there was more action on the other side of Sacramento but I guess not. I love the video though.

Bill Griffin Thank you ! I really appreciate your feedback in addition to you enjoying the video. Yeah, the UP Roseville Subdivision varies in traffic but still has less traffic than the Fresno or Martinez Subdivisions. Compared to other east-west UP routes going into California, Donner Pass is now second compared to the Sunset Route (Yuma Subdivision), primarily because of the steep grades and maintenance costs that it incurs every year. UP currently holds the Sunset Route as their main east-west route into California due to the cost in addition to more customers in Southern California. Nonetheless, although not as much traffic traverses Donner Pass, there is still a good amount and is definitely a nice change of scenery, as well as the pleasant communities it passes through.
