Big Sky Tour Part 7
4/5/18
On our 5th day of the trip, we head West to Missoula to get a bit of railroad action. As Montana Rail Link is headquartered in Missoula, i knew i would see some MRL equipment rolling around. Well, not that much but i did manage to get a local switching some log cars. Anyway, we found a few freight trains rolling around like an Intermodal and couple coal trains. One in particular was an Eastbound empty coal rounding a curve at Alree, MT, we chased it to Marent trestle in hopes we didn't miss it but luckily it came by just in time.
Make sure you've seen Part 1 up to here!

Well, i'll have to say this, the next episode (Part 8) will be the last episode of Big Sky Tour, so get ready for our final segment of the trip!
It's a pretty cool yard surrounded by mountains
Nice video with the freight train and its route!
Great shots and footage! Love this episode and series! Nice work Cooper!
I love checking out the NP 1356 next to the NP depot in this video. It has a wild history! The old Milwaukee depot across the river is a must see also.
Great vantage point in Missoula.
Beautiful country
Great video, Cooper!
This is some good action Cooper;)
I wonder if that bnsf power move is in fact a helper needing to be refueled before heading back to its assigned siding to wait for stalls
Awesome video Cooper
I was a brakeman on the Northern Pacific, Rocky Mountain Division, out of Missoula. East to Helena, west to the aptly named Paradise. 'Course 50-plus years ago and things have changed.

Thank you for sharing your experience!
I like the trains but I love the mountains
Nice job, Cooper!
First shot looks like the Amtrak line in upper Manhattan near the George Washington Bridge
That "coal train" at +-6:20 is a bunch of empties.
👍👍👍
Hey its Missoula, my Uncle created their college Pharmacy program from literally nothing. He told them what it would cost, and they gave him that much. Like 4 decades ago maybe, or more?

MRL is a separate company but I think BNSF just has trackage rights over the entire MRL route from Laurel, MT thru to Sand Point, Idaho.

BNSF owns the tracks that MRL operates on. MRL has a 50 year lease on the tracks and BNSF has trackage rights over MRL tracks.
Where is Part 8?

Didn't know BNSF ran intermodal over the MRL!

To be honest, I didn't know either. Still not sure where it came from.

Think I do remember hearing that they detour intermodal trains over the MRL if there's a prob on Marias Pass or something like that but I think it's rare.
