The Eastbound San Joaquin Daylight is accelerating through the Mojave Yard after stopping at the station to let a rider off. The Tehachapi mountain range is seen in the background
Coast Starlight detour train #11 rolls south through Mojave Yard on Union Pacific's Mojave Subdivision. The reroute was due to bridge replacement in Santa Barbara, CA.
Sunny California? Not always, as evidenced on December 2, 1979 as a Santa Fe eastbound passes the (now demolished) station in Mojave after crossing the Tehachapi Mountains.
