  • Presented in 4K - 45 minutes of heavy freight train action on the Mullan Pass, in Central Montana. The Montana Rail Link was recently bought out of the BNSF, but the trains and scenery are still mostly unchanged! Located on the 3rd Subdivision, the steep 2.2% grades provide some of the finest and toughest railroading around.
    You'll also see some of the various MRL/BNSF helper sets, that are staged at the bottom of the pass, in nearby Helena, MT. These helper sets are manned, and mainly attached to Westbound trains who need assistance going up the pass.
    Thanks for watching! | Video and Content by MichaelLovesTrains 2024

    Holy cow. That MRL patriotic unit is so dirty now that you can barely tell what it even is! Glad I visited MRL multiple times over the years before BNSF decided to take it back over.

    I noticed too, since BNSF took over MRL, they no longer keep those EMD's clean, like the Washington group used to.

    A small correction; the BNSF sought to end the lease to MRL early. The money exchanged was to terminate the lease. The track has always been BNSF via the Northern Pacific.

    That's a great spot to shoot Skyline Trestle Michael! I was there in 2015 and spent 3 days on the Pass, but trains were few and far between, but still a great place ! Nothing like this down here in Australia??
    Cheers Gregg.

    Mountain railroading at its finest. Units in Run 8 up front, units in Run 8 in the swing, and a unit in run 8 at the rear. Someone please forward this video to the suits in Omaha and let them know Tennessee Pass is waiting for its return call.

    Ahhh, Scott Hiddelston territory. He mostly quit posting, it seems. I lived there for 7 years, but never went up to the pass area. My bad.

    Where did the SD70ACe with numbers 4316, 4317, 4318 and 4319? Usually they were actively working until the road to BNSF passed. And the MRL locomotives are somehow dirty, this has never happened before. Sadly.
