HO Scale Model Trains at The San Diego Model Railroad Museum - THE TEHACHAPI PASS

Ойын-сауық

THE TEHACHAPI PASS by the La Mesa Model Railroad Club.
The La Mesa Model Railroad Club operates the Southern Pacific - Santa Fe Tehachapi Pass Layout. This exhibit is a highly accurate replica of Southern California’s busiest single track mountain railroad and is HO scale.
The Tehachapi Pass runs through the Tehachapi Range of the Sierra Nevada Mountains and is famous for the Tehachapi Loop, where because of the steep mountain grade the railroad was designed in a spiral loop. You can see this replicated on the mezzanine level of the Tehachapi layout.
Everything on this layout operates to scale. Including the types of trains run on the track, the times of operation and the speed.

    You should call your layout... The Uncanny Valley Railroad. The realism is phenomenal, the artwork for the backgrounds are unbelievable, the contrast, the colors, the detail are all beyond imagination. The realism is like an uncanny valley, where it looks real but there's something about it where you have to take a second or third look to see that it's just a model layout. Just fantastic.

    Down to the graffiti on the cars, this is so well done. 30 years ago, I still remember visiting this museum and being in awe of the model railroads, with Tehachapi the centrepiece of it all. So great to revisit this, albeit virtually.

    This is a great layout. I like the squeal of the train wheels on the rails. Makes it sound real.

    Just as i remember it from my visit to Tehachapi from England in January 1997, this is one of the best videos of model trains i have see, even with the horns blowing in the wrong places, well done

    Tehachapi will never be the same with the roaring and smoking engines of the Southern Pacific. The railroad who originally built the line through the Tehachapi Mountains and the Loop. It breaks my heart seeing all these BNSF trains and that ''yellow monster'' that stole the SP from us, on the Loop.
