I'm always happy to come across a (former) Montana Rail Link unit on a BNSF train. If you are reading this comment and are not familiar, BNSF bought out MRL at the start of 2025. BNSF took over MRL's rail lines and property, including all motive power. The MRL SD70ACes have been shuffled into the fleet, though they never lead, as they are not PTC-equipped.
