Customer Reviews:
5 out of 5 stars Some of the best rail photography you'll ever see!   December 9, 1998
13 out of 13 found this review helpful

This book pictorializes one of the most fascinating and best places to watch (and photogaph) modern railroading. The author who is also the photographer, expertly captures the drama, the beauty and the complexity of this mainline trackage running through the Tehachapi mountains.

The photos are large, colorful, sharply detailed. The vantage points are unique. The lighting in many are simply spectacular, lighting not often associated with this subject matter. The narrative is the icing on the cake.

Railfans visit Tehachapi from all over the world. Most of them own this book.
