Remarks & Notes

Railroading is a game of numbers.

90 cylinders. 10,800 horsepower. 7,894 tons. 17,200 more horsepower. 2.2 percent.

Three MRL SD45's, with the help of four more EMD's cut in mid-train, lift a heavy Kansas City, KS to Spokane, WA manifest over the Greenhorn Creek as thunder claps to the East. Sights, of blue EMD's in the high desert, skirting deep blue rivers and working through lush forests make the MRL one of the greatest modern railroads to exist.
