Description

Four BNSF SD40-2s in two pairs of two wait at Essex, MT to be called for helper duty, helping to push heavy trains over the Marias Pass between Essex and Browning. The double-stack passing by in the background is the same train as seen in Glacier Park Trestle Crossing.

The four units in this shot are BNSF SD40-2s 6816 (ex-BN 6816, nee-BN 6356), 6820 (ex-BN 6360), 6818 (ex-BN 6358) & 6961 (ex-BNSF 7300, nee-CN SD40 5162).

Great to see what this all looks like in real life, I know this route only from Microsoft Train Simulator.
