With the Coast Line closed between Chatsworth and Oxnard due to MOW work, Amtrak's Coast Starlight was detoured through Tehachapi Pass. Here, northbound train 14 passes a BNSF train at Sandcut, nearing its short stop at Bakersfield for a crew change.
Running daily between Seattle and Los Angeles, this train offers running alongside the Pacific Ocean and through the Cascade Mountains. It has been one of Amtrak's long-distance success stories.
