MRL 4312
Title:  MRL 4312
Description:  Helper Link, it's great when it works. How it works: Dial in the #on the fred on the train your pushing, brake line air pressure reading is shared with helper link. A pressure reduction on fred (brake application), helper units brakes set up. The train goes into emergency,so do the helpers. Helpers go into emergency, so does the train. All w/o connecting any air hoses and the switchman doesn't have to pull the pin.

MRL 332
Title:  MRL 332
Description:  My helper picked up these five SD45's in Bozeman after they went over as PA (power assist) units on various trains. The 332 and 319 have only been in service for 1 week in their brand new paint and already the 332 looks like a regular helper. The 319 was the west leader most of the week and managed to dodge the grime and still has a shine. Thanks to my wife for getting this shot as I came in on this helper on the back of the M-SPOLAU with this huge (cool) consist.

MRL 327
Title:  MRL 327
Description:  It is usual practice in Livingston to use 5 SD45's or combination of 45's and 40's as the 2nd helper set. This pic was taken during one of those weeks where someone had this great idea that, if there needs to be 2 helpers out the ACe's can get the heavy's (coal and grain) and the small 45 set can get everything else...We'll save fuel!!!. That works great until you have 2 or 3 heavy's waiting at Livingston for helpers. Start to finish from Livingston to Bozeman and back, cut into a train it takes 3 1/2 hours
