Don't forget one of the most fascinating places I ever visited: Montana Rail Link's Mullan Pass between Helena and Elliston - the former Norhern Pacific crossing of the continental divide. There will be hardly any train without helpers (mostly used SD40/45 - some still in livery of their former owners). A helper set here normally consists of 4 units ! Heavy trains have up to 3 of them. The line is also used by BNSF freights. The unquestionable highlight is Mullan tunnel on the summit. Imagine these old units at top throttle running at 5 mph, filling the tunnel with black smoke. When the trains emerge from the tunnel right at the continental divide, the earth shakes ! A big cloud of exhaust fumes will build up and remain there for minutes. This is a real treat albeit its remoteness !
