). It is pretty much downhill from Hipass east of Campo to Tecate, so the train basically coasts to the tunnel before the engine is needed to haul it back uphill to Campo. It was nice to finally be able to ride on part of the original San Diego & Arizona rail line (John D Spreckels' magnificent obsession: "The Impossible Railroad"). I had been a fan of this line since I first saw parts of it in the early 1970's while driving along beautiful Highway 94 out of San Diego. One of the scheduled places the train sounds its horn is where the Pacific Crest Trail crosses the tracks (caught that spot in my video).
