MRL - MONTANA MAINLINE: PART 2 Canada CSX crests the Allegheny MountainsMRL MONTANA MAINLINE PART 2: Helena to Sandpoint In MRL Montana Mainline Part 2, we return to Helena in the dead of winter as trains prepare to do battle with Mullan Pass. A strong Canadian storm system slammed into the Rockies sending the mercury below zero while a quintet of MRL's EMD SD70ACe's put on a fantastic show shoving heavy trains to the summit. This is a mountain railroading at its best with 2. 2% grades, numerous curves and high trestles.
