[BazBuzinkum]

Great video, wish there were more! If you look at the snow depth they are in at the end of the 1st video, it explains why so much power is needed. That hardpack drifted snow is like trying to drive through a rock; all those ponies are needed to push into the drift so snowblower can cut it out.

Good Vid. Interesting consist for rotary! Interesting, AC44CW, AC44EVS, and a SD70. That is a lot of power for a really big snow blower!!! Any idea on you need arouond 12,000 Horse Power for such a consist? Also, cool to see the support cars (probably its for their own portable shop and spare parts) and the crew car. Would be interesting to run that consist across the system after a big storm!!

Skip, are you the guy who runs around with Dan Barker sometimes in the 4 Runner?

[Derailedtrain666]

I'm amazed at your bravery for standing in the cold for that. Great Work.

I don't like their 'new' one that the steam shops keep in the shops, this one looks better to me.

[SkipW]

[SF3751]
