This gallery includes photos taken within the past several months.   It is meant to give a real-time view of the railroading scene in the area.  I see it as kind of a railroad window to the Bakersfield area and Tehachapi from your computer at home.  From time to time, I will remove the oldest photos.  Some will re-appear in other galleries, while others will just go away.
