This video shows more train action in and around Bakersfield, CA. There are CSX locomotives, a warbonnet leader on the yard job, NS, CN/IC, and CP. At the end of the video, it shows how Amtrak has to wye their train in order to turn it around. There was a cab car shortage for a while so they only had one cab that was able to lead the train, which was the F59PHI. So upon arrival into Bakersfield, the train had to wye in order to depart like normal the next day. It was a fun move to watch. Also, that warbonnet leader was one of the few early locomotives, 708, that has Santa Fe written on the nose. It's a cool consist especially with the B40-8W 556 in there, too! Anyways, enjoy the vid!
Thanks for watching! đđŧ
