[HD] Santa Fe on the BNSF Malabar Job in Vernon, CA

Here is a video chasing the BNSF Y-LAC0112 Malabar Job switching Malabar Yard on the northern section of the BNSF Harbor Subdivision and serving all its industries along the line, featuring Ex-Santa Fe GP60 188. Prior to the construction of the Alameda Corridor, the 26-mile-long Harbor Sub was the primary route for the Santa Fe to get from the Ports of LA to the transcontinental mainline. The Alameda Corridor, completed and opened for rail traffic in 2002, is used by both BNSF and Union Pacific and is a means to move more trains more quickly and with higher capacity, relieving congestion on surface streets above through the use of the trench which spans 8 miles from Vernon to Compton. Since the opening of the Alameda trench, the Harbor Sub was closed to through rail traffic, only seeing regularly-scheduled local trains and occasional autorack/double stack repositioning trains on parts of the route. The Harbor Subdivision is now split into two sections, with the southern portion extending from Watson Yard to just south of LAX Airport, and the northern section from Redondo to stopping just south of the Malabar Yard in Vernon. The middle section was abandoned and converted into right-of-way for the brand-new Metro Crenshaw/LAX Line which opened in early 2023, and a rail-to-rail bike bath currently under construction along Slauson Ave. The Malabar Yard will soon be converted into a baretable storage yard following the construction of the LinkUS project to turn Los Angeles Union Station into a run-through station rather than a terminal, which will reduce the length of the BNSF 1st Street Yard along the LA River which currently houses baretable storage.
