Westwood, California — BNSF Gateway Sub near MP 168

Mike Leland-Nascimento runs this camera near milepost 168 on the BNSF Gateway Sub. His description says trains going right to left are headed north toward Klamath Falls, Oregon, and trains going left to right are going south toward Keddie, California.

He adds that this is the former Western Pacific Western Division 4th Subdivision, or Highline, which connected Keddie to Bieber, California, where the Great Northern connection to Klamath Falls was made, and that the line in view, between Clear Creek Junction and Westwood, was originally part of the Red River Lumber Company electric logging line from Westwood to Chester. The picture shows a single ballasted track in front of tall pines, with a boulder beside the ballast; no train was in view when it was reviewed.
