La Mesa Model Railroad Club at the San Diego Model Railroad Museum in Balboa Park

 

San Diego Model Railroad Museum in Balboa Park.

 

Tehachapi - the name conjures up images of The Loop wherever railfans and modelers gather throughout the world. But railroading in Tehachapi is much more than just the loop alone. It involves the entire 70 miles of railroad between Bakersfield and Mojave. Building a replica of this line has challenged modelers just as the pass itself challenged the railroad barons of a century ago.

 

The La Mesa Model Railroad Club has responded to this challenge by building an HO scale (1/87th actual size) model of this joint Southern Pacific - Santa Fe line with nearly curve-for-curve and switch-for-switch accuracy. This single track railroad, built through a notch in the Tehachapi Mountains, carries nearly all north-south rail traffic between central and southern California. It is also the eastern outlet for most of the produce grown in the San Joaquin Valley.

 

Two of the most attractive things about the Tehachapi are the mountain scenery and the nearly continuous series of sharp reverse curves forced upon the railroad by the rugged terrain. The famous Loop is located at Walong siding, where an engine of a 100 car train spirals up to cross directly over its caboose 70 feet below. In several places the line doubles back upon itself, making it an ideal candidate for modeling. The model is unique not only for its size but for its geographic fidelity. Literally thousands of photographs of the prototype have been used to ensure that each detail closely models the features of the actual area. The La Mesa Model Railroad Club meets every Tuesday at 7:00 pm and Monday work session are from 10am-6pm.

Went out to Fountain Hills today and "due to rain" I shot from the cheap seats, after a few attempts I hit road back to Scottsdale.

 

Upon exiting the freeway near home, I looked out over the cotton field during that golden hour sunset and decided to make a U-turn and stop to take a few shots.

 

Whats that saying? "never set out for a shot because you wont get it and will probably find unplanned gold elsewhere"... :)

Looking towards Hyde Road Junction on the former Fallowfield Loop line. The Northern end spur into what was Reddish TMD would have been directly behind me to the left hand side.

Apologies for the poor quality, after having these prints developed I soon learned that my camera had decided to 'jack' altogether. Included purely for historical interest.

DB Cargo class 66 locomotive 66150 stands at far as we can go due to the vegetation ahead, we are on the Garw Valley line that once was very busy as it served 4 major colleries, know as the Garw loop now and used as a run round facility for when freight trains are infrequently diverted via Tondu, away from the South Wales mainline and we've gone way past that loop.

This is UK Railtours excellent 'The Valley of the Witch’ railtour, the 1Z19 07.06 London Paddington-Onllwyn Washery via Tondu.

The last time i came this way was behind 37412 'Driver John Elliot' on Pathfinder Tours "The Glamorgan Freighter" from Tondu up the Garw Valley along this disused branch to Pontycmmer on the 2nd March 1996

Descending the famous Gata loops. Most of these roads are connected with dirt trails and you can take them instead of the tarmac if you are on a good 4x4 or a motorcycle without much luggage. This is a nice place to do some riding if you can find a place around here to stay.

This was too long to fit into my frame, so it had to be diagonal, and a tad looped! I'm not sure which Geometrid this is.
