Cima Hill, CA in 4k - December 2024 - Work trains, manifest and an intermodal (ZLBDV). This is a really good hill for eastbound traffic in run 8 and westbound traffic in dynamics. You can chase the trains up and down the hill as they go at such a slow pace (probably because UP is cheap with locomotives). The reason that this hill doesn't get as much attention as others is mainly due to a lack of traffic. I was lucky to get four trains in a matter of six hours as I was out on the Cima Sub the other day for three hours and I didn't see a single train.
