On October 10, 2023, Montana Rail Link’s 844 local proceeds downgrade between mileposts 7 and 8 north of Harrison, Montana, with seven cars of grain from the Harrison Elevator Co. Leading the train is MRL EMD GP35 No. 401, a former DT&I unit built without dynamic brakes, so it’s all air going down the 2.2 percent grade to Sappington as they pass a herd of cattle.
