52 minutes in you go over the Muir Trestle. I live 1300 ft up on the hill to your left. I can sit on my back patio and see the trains rolling both ways. Many now have helpers. The John Muir National Park is right below me and my home. Always wondered what it was like to be on those tracks.. I'm a Southern Pacific guy. I was a brakeman with them, my father an Executive Officer in San Francisco. Great video thank you.

My father worked for Southern Pacific on the Oregon coast .He did teletype in Vietnam and used that to get his foot in the door.One of his jobs was to run ahead of the train for 80 road miles and open 3 trestles .I was luck enough to get many cab rides in high hoods and a lot of dash 2" s . SP was the only gig in town on .The sound of the train horn echoing through coos bay will be a memory I will never forget

@@brentmiller3951 what a beautiful story! My father was World War II. Army Air Corps / Air Force. Same with him. He was very good at his communications and engineering understanding without ever even having a degree. At the end of his service time he was part of the nuclear development in the Kwajaleans.The railroad hired him and after 3 years he became their first management trainee. They sent us as a whole family to UTEP -then Texas Western. We spent 3 and 1/2 years in El Paso while you went to college! Graduating with an engineering background he was promoted until we lived in San Francisco corporate. He was very much part of and headed the communications group who created SPCC. Later to become what you know a SPRINT. The godfather of the SPCC was John Albertson. He was the one I'm sure who recommended my father for college and at the end my father was with him as he and others in the department developed his concept -SPCC. Many don't realize that at that time the SP had the largest privately owned microwave system in the world. It was a leader in many things other than just railroading. Incredible company.

I’m 29, from New York, and always have been enamored with the power of trains. Specifically freight trains. When I was a kid in the 90s my dad got me this N scale Santa Fe set and I LOVED it. Still to this day the love of trains continues. Watching these vintage videos and thinking these guys have the best job in the world. You’re the king of the rails! The emperor of the north….

It gets in your blood and part of our DNA. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. It seems like five lifetimes ago now. I always love trains and railroads and was fortunate to be part of a small group of incredible people. I god paid for what I love to do. I still railroad but in smaller scales. N and inch and a half scale live steam. Railroading now is not even close to what it was back in the day. Like I tell everyone, “I got to railroad when railroading was fun”. Keep your dreams alive.

Awesome footage sir. I'm a Kansas native with a late great uncle that was born on an ATSF passenger train in 1928 outside of Trinidad, CO. His middle name was Santa Fe Lee and the company offered to pay for his college education then. He enlisted in the military instead. Another late great uncle who ran for the ATSF trucking division locally out of Great Bend, KS and the area of Kansas I'm from was full of branch lines that serviced grain elevators and passenger services. All of those lines were pulled back in the 90's but some trestles remain and I will always have the memories of the glory days.

2 hours and 4 minutes of traveling and never dropped off or picked up a car. That was a awesome run. I think you were right, Steve, there should be a video of each section of the track to be used as a training film to familiarize new engineers with an area of the railroad they haven’t seen yet. I never realized how much water there was along side the railway and how many birds hang out on the tracks and the area.

Hello Steve. Your video finally came in on a recommendation for me so I’m just now getting to see it. What a great video. I was lucky enough to attend and graduate one of the many Santa Fe conductor training classes in 95 - 96. My training jurisdiction was Richmond to Fresno. After graduation I only worked for 2 days in Stockton and pretty much had to go back to my previous job due to my low seniority and the high rate of graduates. I sure had a great experience meeting a lot of wonderful people. Being able to experience a cab ride in one of the GE Dash-9 was pretty amazing I have to say. Although I’ve I’ve forgotten a lot, this video certainly brought back a lot of great memories of the 3 months of training I had. Thank you for sharing and sorry to hear about your injury. Take care.

What a fantastic video! During the time I worked out of Oakland, I used to ride my motorcycle through the beautiful Franklin Canyon area on my days off. Always wondered what it would look like from the cab. Now I know. Right after the Amtrak meet, looked like a few rusty remnants of the Sacramento Northern off to the right. And that long causeway trackage at the end was something else. I can certainly understand the slow order. Finally I can honestly say that if I had to listen to Barbara on that radio for more than 5 minutes, I would have a colossal headache.

Good memories! I photographed Glen Frazier, Sando, East Antioch, Knightsen from 1983 - 1993. Shot all of the Kodachromes freshly painted out of San Bernardino on their shake down runs, all of the set outs of woodchips from the #839 and #849 trains as well as the pick ups on the #928 trains at Antioch. Superfleets when they were delivered fresh from EMD and GE and on the #199 trains. Usually could get a cab ride on the 1st Pittsburg switcher as they switched out Domtar, Crown Zellerbach, Dupont and many other industries which are now gone.

Brings back old memories. As a mechanical guy used to protect the 199 ‘s westbound out of Argentine to Emporia. Often had 18000 -21000 hp and 2500 tons. Made the 125 mile run in as little as 1 hour 45 minutes. Occasionally would catch the 991 eastbound to Marceline. Was a longer run since we had to thread the strawberry patch at Union Station. Couldn’t make 70 until east of Congo and the Sibley bridge. Worked for three roads, Santa Fe by far was the best run.

Thank you so much for uploading this Steve! I'm continually amazed by all the old railroad footage on youtube. But this is probably my favorite cab ride video because the ambience of the area, the pace, and the length of the video. So what made you go to work for Santa Fe over SP or other lines? On another note, there is a train simulator called Run8 that has been around for a while. It has the famous routes like Cajon Pass and Tehachapi on it. However, it would be EPIC if they added Stockton sub.

Thanks for watching. I love to see the Stockton Sub on a simulator. I’d be all in on that. I always wanted to be an engineer and I never cared which one. I grew up in Livermore and I grew up with the SP and WP local. I actually never saw anything Santa Fe growing up. My favorite was always the WP and I sent out dozens of letters to railroads all over the country in 1976 and only got three that were taken applications. The Southern in I believe Louisiana, the BN in Montana and the Santa Fe in Richmond. That was a no brainer. I was an instructor engineer at the time I shot this in hopes of making copies of the whole division and give them to my students. This was taken April 1st 1992. Unfortunately I had a carrier ending on the job injury in 93 and was never able to complete that task. I very much appreciate your comment and very happy you enjoyed the video. Steve

Steve Arnold Tell me about it, I relieved her enough times. Usually the transfer would go fairly quick, I'd look at the train sheet while she was yakking at me then I'd just shake my head and say "I got it Barb, go home and get your rest." Then it was about 45 minutes of rearranging meets and looking for any traps, after that the rest of the shift was easy. The crews made the job easy as most all of them wanted to get over the road. Mike Byrne and Teddy Rosal taught me the territory, two better dispatchers you wouldn't find. Teddy R.I.P. brother, we miss you.

Heh, in the beginning where your train 'went into the hole' for 199, I gathered from the radio chatter that 'Barbara' your friendly dispatcher had thought your train, 951, was going to stay on the main and 199 go in the hole? Instead, you and your Conductor, being the veterans you are, realized that 199 should have priority, being a piggyback, and so instead your train should go in the hole and 199 have the main to keep 199 moving. Am I correct on all this? ^^

With Mike long trains at times, I was curious just how did the brakeman get back to the engine when he had to throw a passing siding switch like here in the video? Didn't they have to throw the siding switch back to the mainline after the last car clears? So if a following train didn't have to take the siding they wouldn't have to stop their train to throw the switch back to the main?

I shut off the camera to conserve the battery. That's why the 199 just disappeared. Our train just cleared the west switch but fouled the circuit for the 199 so the left at Restricted Speed as did our 951

thanks! i occasionally foam franklin canyon area and it's interesting to see the route from cab view. i'm a little confused, though because i know these tracks parallel UP tracks for a bit in pinole(?). however, it's also interesting to see the little building near CP christie. thanks for posting this!

Would the 199 be the equivalent to today's Z WSPNBY trains?

Where in Richmond are we in the beginning? Anyone know if the siding at 6:42-7:10 is still in use? Doubt it...

Answer to your first question is Richmond Yard next to Chevron. Answer to your second is Rheem and it is still there but a CTC crossover exists in the middle between the BNSF and the UP. A side note to Rheem siding is that the west switch stand still exists and lives in my backyard.
