thanks for all the tips [:)] <br /> <br />We were planning to be there most likely during the fall, so hopefully wont be too hot. Although down here where I live we're plenty used to the hot, and snakes and walking for that matter. <br /> <br />But anyway we were thinking of buying one the Amtrak rail passes as well as hiring a car so we will probably travel by train to San Diego, San Francisco, and up to Seattle. Other railroady places I forgot to mention was the Cascade Tunnel in WA. and Kicking Horse Pass in BC. Aside from the scenery are they good spotting places? Also the rail line that runs along the beach near San Diego, I cant think of the name right at the moment. <br /> <br />If watching trains during the weekend for example, how long is it between trains at places like Cajon and Tehachapi? I've heard at the moment UP is heavily congested on their runs into LA. We dont really want to sit around all day just for a few trains. I guess what we are really after is to see some big trains and watch some activity with helpers. Not so interested in spotting passenger trains though because there are more than enough of those to look at here. But LAUPT still sounds interesting. <br /> <br />Thanks for the info!
