FACT NEXUS on Instagram: "The 'Tehachapi' Loop was built as an ingenious spiral track by Southern Pacific Railroad in 1876, designed by William Hood to help trains climb the steep Tehachapi Mountains with a manageable grade (2.2%), allowing them to gain 77 feet in elevation over a 3,779-foot circular path through solid rock and tunnels. Primarily with help from Chinese laborers, connecting the San Joaquin Valley to the Mojave Desert for the first railroad linking LA and SF. #science #technology
