MRL 1744 West

County Road 20, near Lucien, Oklahoma

Tulsa to Belen merchandise train MRL 1744 West, symbol M-TULBEL4-29, approaching milepost 518. The power was Montana Rail Link SD45 #1744, followed by BNSF Dash 8-40BW #561 and SD40-2 #7328. Still painted in Wisconsin Central colors, #1744 was built for the Norfolk & Western in 1967 and retains its original road numbers. Trailing locomotive #561 was one of the the worst looking I've ever seen in a power consist recently.
