Cajon Pass Xtreme

Cajon Pass Xtreme

This is the modern (as seen today) BNSF/UP segment of track leading through the Cajon Pass and into the Mojave desert from San Bernardino, CA to Barstow, CA. The route is famous for its high volume of rail traffic, steep grades (3% max-BNSF; 2.2% max-UP) and breathtaking scenery. Apart from the usual freight trains, Amtrak's Southwest Chief passenger service regularly employs the pass. The route in 88 miles in length. Many thanks to Paul Haglund (fishlipsatwork) for the excellent DEM terrain.
