Caliente Depot PTZ Railcam

The Caliente Depot

This camera overlooks the beautifully restored Caliente depot, a Mission Revival landmark built in 1923 that once served as a division point on the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad. Today the depot anchors the small town of Caliente and remains a working part of the Union Pacific network.

Trains on the Caliente Sub

The PTZ camera follows freight movements along the Caliente Subdivision, a busy single-track main line linking Las Vegas with Salt Lake City. Long manifest and intermodal trains thread through the desert canyon, making this a favourite vantage point for railfans worldwide.

High-Desert Setting

Framed by the arid mountains of the Great Basin, Caliente sits in a narrow valley at the mouth of Rainbow Canyon. The dramatic desert backdrop and wide rail yard give every passing train a striking sense of scale.

A Living Railroad Town

Caliente grew up around the railroad and still celebrates that heritage. Visitors can explore the depot, which houses a library and museum, while the live feed lets viewers everywhere share in the rhythm of this remote Nevada railroading community.
