South end power
Title:  South end power
Description:  The train operates pull-pull, making it much easier to change direction at the end of the run. Since they run on the M&NA at the discretion of their dispatcher, the train can go either way from Branson, depending on traffic, making this arrangement especially helpful. The power on the south end is a GP 30, probably the only place in America you can ride behind one.

BSRX 99
Title:  BSRX 99
Description:  This view of Branson Scenic Railway GP-30M #99 looks north-east, about a block or two north of the passenger station (off to the right of this photo). #99 is pushing or assisting this northbound train about 1130 am. Note the GP-7/9 style louver on the battery box, seldom if ever applied AFAIK to stock GP-30's. Take a ride if you ever get the chance--it's great!.
