Western Railroad Discussion > Snow at the Tehachapi Depot

This morning woke up to a winter wonderland.   Ventured out to the post office and snapped this on the way back.   Even more scheduled for tomorrow.  The grandkids are thrilled - one of them played in their first snow this morning.

When my brother moved to Wisconsin from SoCal, the first morning it snowed my nephew came rushing into their bedroom to announce, "Look outside and see what happened to the ground!!!!"

Beautiful shot, Mike.  Brings back memories.............I lived in Tehachapi 1968--74.  I am so glad someone restored the old depot and made it useful.

Joe that's a new Depot the original one burned down.

A beautiful picture, but I've often wondered about the trainorder signals at the old depot.  Technically they're both in the "pick up orders" position, but have all references to signals such as these been removed from the governing rulebooks, or could a hoghead who's having a bad day call the dispatcher to ask where his orders are?  My apologies if this sounds like a dumbass question, but I fondly remember when orders were frequently hung at Mojave just down the road a bit.
 

Great pic! Use that as your Christmas card photo!
