We have a place outside Chama, NM. I remember what a big deal this commercial was back then. The Cumbres & Toltec used to use those old snowblowers (they had two) to clear a short section of track to take people out on short winter rides, they wouldn't clear the whole line to Antonito. The bar in the commercial is Foster's which is still there. We knew the bartender in the commercial, she was the actual bartender at Foster's. I remember she'd get $200 or so each time this played.

I don't know if anyone notices but the black guy who operated the train was Hal Williams, who played Officer Smith (Smitty) on Sanford and Son. Just keep your eye open it takes a split second in the engine and when he sits down with his coworker towards the end.

@MervynCruddy Now your talking!

Boys, now that we've plowed the tracks, let's go get plowed!

I'll be damned if that doesn't sound like Orson Wells narrating this. He was doing the cheap wine ads at this time so at least on this he didn't have to show his face. I don't know for sure if it's him but it sounds exactly like him.

How did they come up with a job plowing railroad tracks anyway?
