UP Meets BNSF at Caliente, CA  Contributor's Pick!       
The rivalry between BNSF and Union Pacific is evident on Tehachapi Pass as the line is shared by both BNSF and UP trains as evident in this photo. Here, a UP empty autorack train and its trio of SD70Ms waits for BNSF ES44C4 #7106 to lead her hotshot Z-train past on the mainline. The line over Tehachapi is owned by UP, but BNSF runs over the Pass on trackage rights.
