BNSF L-MON2351-09I
Description:
The "Montana Western of BNSF" or the Copper City Sub train arrives Garrison while passing the remains of the garrison. I knew that Mondays were the best days to see this train, since it usually had 4 units. we intended to chase it south/east back to Butte, but when I found the leader was going to be an orange unit, I scrapped the idea.

MRL/BNSF X-KALCSN9-09M
Description:
We stayed in Helena and I had hopes of catching the 840 local and following it to here. This did not happen, as it left before I knew it and we didn't get moving until a little late. We got to Logan to look around and quickly found out that this empty grain train, with the 840 on his tail, were meeting a loaded coal train here.
