Still On Home Rails - MRL Ex NP GP-9s on the KICKSPO

Kansas City-Spokane train at National Ave. in Helena today with two GP-9s dead in consist.

MRL 120 and 118 are former Northern Pacific 341 and 339

MRL GP-9 120

MRL GP-9 118



Interesting that the two former NP GP-9s are numbered on the MRL in the same relative sequence as in their original NP numbers. I am hoping that these two are going to either Missoula or Spokane for work, and not offline for disposition.

Update: Word is that they are headed for repainting at Western Rail in Usk, Wa.
