Switching Montana Power A session from Gary's Trainz

Beginning in the early 1960s, Montana Power kept the lights on and refrigerators running in eastern Montana with a coal-fired, steam-electric generating plant located in Billings MT. The coal was brought in from Colstrip located in eastern MT.
In this session a coal train pulls into a snow covered Northern Pacific east Billings yard with a string of cars destined for the electricity generating facility.

The Billings Local A session from Gary's Trainz

The Northern Pacific Railroad considered less-than-carload an important part of the transportation of freight both for the NP and the customers that make small business shipments. Less-than-carload, abbreviated LCL, refers to freight that is insufficient in weight to fill a freight car and therefore not qualifying for a carload rate. The NP used truck trailers as well as boxcars to handle LCL shipments. Fully loaded boxcars arrived at a freight terminal and were spotted alongside empty boxes into which freight was transferred for shipment to businesses down the line. This session follows a string of loads and empties, soon to become LCL, from NP yard at Laurel MT to the freight house in Billings MT.
