Author: mapboy I traced this eastbound to the Needles railcam previously changing crews from 09:18 to 09:53, and passing Barstow at 04:24. Just by chance I was recording ATCS looking for UP wb LA&SL trains, so I was able to see that the train at 04:24 came nonstop from Mojave (long crew from Bakersfield). Wednesday night Tehachapi trains would be Q-STOCHI6 (usually no trailers), Q-STOATG6 (usually autos and lately less than 10 trailers) or Z-STOWSP7 (usually some reefer cars). My guess is a Z-STOWSP7 on a night with no reefer pick up at Bakersfield.
