We stumbled upon the ML grinding up Mullan outside of Elliston on our way to Helena, beautiful sun and fall colors on the pass added to the scene!
We stayed the night in Whitehall Montana with sights on chasing the Bozeman local the next day, on our way over to Bozeman we discovered the ML picking up a loaded BNSF ballast train in Logan. We chased them into Bozeman where they made a crew change, in the meantime the bozeman local left light power so we stuck with the ML for the morning. With a new crew on board the ML heads east with 5 on the head end and mid train helpers as the climb up Bozeman pass!
MRL’s Essential Workers engine leads the eastbound Missoula-Laurel by the often photographed barn at Jens, MT, on the 3rd Sub.
With both the special wraps in the spot you don’t want them to be, the Eastbound MISLAU freight, with a ballast train tacked onto the head end, drops downgrade through the sweeping curve at Austin, MT.
"The line_up is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The“liners” are made out of paper (Din A3),
oil paint and graphite, the theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers."

On the eastern end of the Montana Rail Link, MRL's 2nd Sub races across broad valleys along the Yellowstone River. Here, just east of Greycliff, things are fairly flat as the ML races across open prairies on its way to Laurel.

Emerging from the tunnel under Medicine Tree Hill, MRL's ML manifest crosses the Clark Fork River and enters the siding at Nimrod on MRL's 3rd Sub.
Just to the left of the lead locomotive, behind the signal mast, is a number of bridge girders. These are from the former Milwaukee Road bridge here that was dismantled in the last several years. The MILW Pacific Extension once paralleled the former Northern Pacific from Garrison through Nimrod to Missoula.

Exiting the tunnel at Muir the ML will cruise down Bozeman Pass to Livingston where we will give up the chase that started in Helena. Once we got to West End the weather had changed so we moved back west to sunnier skies.
