MRL Westbound passes Skyline at it climbs Mullan Pass MT

A westbound (possibly the LM), with the second loco being the "Essential Workers" wrap, passes Skyline near the top of Mullan Pass. Quick drone clip for visual reference.

Outstanding catch! MRL Essential Workers 4404. They sound so great pulling grade. Awesome group of Helpers on the tail too. Thank you so much! 🙂

Only other diesel locomotive to sound as good as the SD40-2!

Nice horn on that leader

Excuse my ignorance but what does LM mean please. Great video as usual Scott.

[@ScottHiddelston]

It’s a regular train run by MRL which runs from Laurel to Missoula. The return is the ML. The dispatchers call them by these initials but I missed this one on the scanner.
