MRL ML w/Six Motors
Title:  MRL ML w/Six Motors
Description:  They got here somewhere around 1300hrs & it is now 1800hrs....they are STILL not ready to go, but need headroom out of the yard to perform another switching move. The straight set out/pick up that normally takes 30 minutes or less was not to be had today. BNSF evidently left them more work than they could have ever hoped for in the yard, I am pretty sure they moved each & every car around a dozen times.

Description:  ML is struggling as the trailing motor is shut down. This will be the least of their concerns when they reach Garrison, where BNSF has left them enough work to prevent them from making Helena before going on the law....
