The Tehachapi Loop

My friend, Barb, passed on the following in my WelchEvents mailing list and I thought it would be interesting to the readers here, as well. My response follows.

"I saw that you listed Lancaster Poppy Festival around the 20th of April.....if anyone of your friends choose to go there have them drive a short distance further to Tehachapi to see The Tehachapi Loop. One of the seven wonders of the Railroad World. Up to 35 trains a day can pass through there so there's never a dull moment! :)

Barb,

You just told everyone about it. (COOL) Rosanne I and checked it out one
day, driving back from Bakersfield.

Here is a link to information on the Historical Marker at the site.

And this Google search gives you more information than you ever wanted to
know about it.
