I posted this for anyone who is interested in trains. In commemoration of the 150th Anniversary of the completion of the Union Pacific Railroad which united our Eastern United States with the West, the Union Pacific Big Boy is completing a cross country journey soon. Here's a video about Big Boy... However, it was shot in the very flat Midwest portion of our nation...

The area between Victorville, California and Los Angeles, which includes the Cajon Pass, is quite rugged and picturesque.

I have always thought about shooting a train traversing some area in that pass and this just might be a great opportunity, especially if I could find a spot along an upward grade in which the locomotive would be belching a lot of steam... This would be about an hour and a half drive from where I live. It just might be worth it!
