Amtrak on Tehachapi?

Amtrak on Tehachapi?

The first time in many years (at least thirty) an Amtrak train climbs Tehachapi. Here Amtrak number 11 crosses the fifth crossing of Tehachapi creek just below the Loop. This was taken October 23,2005 at 1:56 PM. It was reported on Trainorders.com and this forum that the Boss of Amtrak wanted his private car in Los Angeles and the coast line was closed due to maintainance, so the only way to get it there was over Tehachapi.
I was one of the lucky ones to be able to see it circle the Loop from the vantage point over tunnel 10 and to get pictures of it.
