Montana Rail Link (MRL) s a Class II railroad and operates about 900 miles in southern Montana. This track network, much of it built by the Northern Pacific Railway at the end of the 19th century to complete the first northern transcontinental line, is owned by successor BNSF Railway; MRL has trackage rights. Among their major services, MRL uses sets of locomotives to help push/pull heavy trains over Montana's mountain passes. Most notably is helper service on Mullan Pass, located between Helena, MT and Elliston, MT, which is featured in this video. Enjoy breathtaking operations in difficult, but very scenic terrain!
