MRL Special ACE's lead a manifest up Mullan Pass 3/5/23

Decided to go by the Helena depot on my way home this morning and found the MRL manifest M-LAUMIS (Laurel to Missoula) getting ready to depart. I figured I would watch it depart when I noticed that the 4404 (Essential workers unit) and 4407 (Veterans unit) were on the head end of this train. I rushed home and grabbed my filming gear after he departed the yard. I then headed to Tobin to watch the action and then chase it as far as I could up the pass. After heading back towards Helena, I caught the detector at Weed MP 15.9, reporting on a helper set descending the pass. I set back up at Tobin and watched the helper set as it returned to Helena.

Excellent great video, Maestro. Really good done. Here in the Netherlands have a glossy magazine about the railwaycompanys in the Netherlands and Europe. They make also books and one book goes about the railwaycompanys in the U.S.A. One of the railway company named is Montana Rail Link ( MRL) explatation a formerly line of BN ( now BNSF). Now i watch this company on your video thanks👍👌🚆. Greet from Zandvoort the Netherlands 🇾🇪🇺🇸.
