A nice surprise on the tail end of BNSF's Provo-Denver was an MRL SD70ACe. As you are probably aware, and perhaps have even read here on the site, MRL units have becoming easier to catch outside Montana since BNSF's took over Montana Rail Link at the start of 2024. With the MRL power now officially owned by BNSF, the power has been scattered across the BNSF system. Eventually, it will be repainted in BNSF colors. In the meantime, it is a great splash of color have MRL blue in the Colorado High Country!
