Tehachapi tonnage
Author: jc76

With the SP coal and oil can drags now gone what train symbols tend to currently run with the most tonnage?
Just curious.

Thanks

Perhaps any manifest freight with a Eugene, Oregon origin (lumber drag)?

Here are some of the BNSF trains that have heavy
tonnage H-BARPAS/H-PASBAR , H-EVEBAR/H-BAREVE ,
H-VBCBAR/H-BARVBC along with the U-JOLPIT/Empty
U-PITJOL those are the ones I could think of right
now.

BNSF's H-VBCBAR has got to have the most tonnage, it usually has DP off the I-5 and through the valley. I have had an 11,000 ton U JOLPIT but it came in the back door off the UP via Steige. Don't know if they ran em that heavy over the Tehachapi's. The H-VBCBAR is an extention of the old H-EVEBAR, it just starts in Vancouver BC. now.
