A long BNSF intermodal freight train winds through the curves of Cajon Pass, carrying double-stacked shipping containers through one of Southern California’s busiest railroad corridors. The train stretches across the landscape in a sweeping S-shaped curve, passing beneath the distinctive sandstone formations of Mormon Rocks. Connecting the Los Angeles Basin with the Mojave Desert and points east, Cajon Pass has long been a vital transportation route. Its steep grades, sharp curves, and rugged mountain scenery make it one of the most recognizable railroad locations in the American West.
