This is one of my most favorite train videos. I was impressed with the camera views with some very unique trains and lots of switching. *Rail Yard Action*

Thanks again 232 for the great movies of the UP. Isn't that a great place to watch as one gets trains going East Yuma and Las Vegas and beyond. That quarry at the East end of the yard that I have been watching for the last 60+ years still isn't flat. Guess it will out live me before they turn it into a level parking lot.

Great Vid, sure do miss home. Used to cross over the bridge near the Target where the yard begins with my mom and sometimes my aunt back when i was a kid going to the grocery store (Food4Less). Would always get excited seeing headlights far down the tracks. Lived in Fontana. Thank you for the Upload!

Thanks for the video! I especially like the night action. I think the night shots are the best because the signals light the yard up like a Christmas tree.

West Colton was built in 1972/73. It was moved from Colton Yard, approx. 3miles to the east. West Colton yard covers 5 miles from Realtio, Bloomington, Colton, And Fontana. An average of 17 to 20 trains originate from this yard. And it's the only true classification yard with hump in Southern California.

Great vid. Really nicely shot and edited. Thanks. That is a great spot there at Pepper Ave. Interesting to see the turnout marker lights. I have not seen them before. Question: There is a double headed signal on the east side of the overpass between the diverging legs of the turnout. Does that signal govern both legs of the turnout? Does that signal control exiting moves out of the yard onto the main?

Going to Oregon you'd take the hi-line at the east end of the yard.that goes uphill .Going straight on thru past the cut will take you down the Sunset Route.
