Re PAX ride ALL detour - from Sac to LA

On the October 23, 2005 David Gunn Tehachapi Detour train 11 this was the policy:
NO intermediate passenger Stops from Sacramento to Los Angeles -- SORRY.
The ONLY stop should be for CREW change at the BNSF Bakersfield Yard Office (former ATSF Bakersfield Yard) .
Amtrak passengers are of course NOT permitted usually in any freight yard.

Train 14 should have the same policy running the reverse order from Los Angeles to Sacramento.
Famed long-time rail traveler Chris Guenzler from Trainweb dot com was DENIED boarding in Bakersfield on 10-23-05. Chris Guenzler did NOT plan to board in Sacramento in 2005 so he MISSED that detour train entirely.
The plans that I have seen posted to the "NARP Hotline" and other places are a RERUN of the 10-23-05 train.
So in order to ride the June 22, 2008 Tehachapi Detour you need to board train 11 in Sacto OR train 14 in Los Angeles.
I hope this info helps you ride this very HISTORIC Amtrak Detour !
Warm Regards everyone,
Daniel
