“Heavy Westbound BNSF Train Clears Cajon Junction — Keenbrook Stop Denied”

Описание: A westbound BNSF stack–baretable–Z‑train combo drops through Cajon Junction on Main Track 3, rolling hard down the grade with that unmistakable Cajon Pass momentum. As the locomotives pass directly in front of the camera, the crew hits us with a clean horn salute, echoing across the canyon — a perfect up‑close moment. The sharp 2160P 4K UHD footage showcases the immense strength and presence of these iconic machines. Adjust your settings, sit back, and enjoy the ride!


A few minutes after the lead engines clear the junction, the radio comes alive.

The dispatcher calls the lead engine, asking if they can stop at Keenbrook for traffic management. The crew responds immediately:
they cannot comply — the train is too heavy and too committed to the downhill to safely stop on the grade.

With no choice, the dispatcher must reroute the movement, adjusting westbound traffic on the fly. It’s a rare, authentic look at real‑time decision‑making on the Cajon Subdivision, where tonnage, momentum, and timing dictate everything.
