How close to the rails does the blade go? I'm guessing it don't scrap 'em.

surfs up

@railroad33 and i'm sure the plow creates downforce, kinda like the wing on a race car
-
my favorite part was when it was plowing the snow
-
If a drift is highly sloped and much deeper on one side, can it force the plow to the other side and derail it?
What about ice in flangeways at grade crossings?
Would a sharp disk ahead of the wheel cut it up enough that wheel flanges could cut through with out riding up and derailing?

I'm just glad to see there's life out on that Kyle Railway. Been driving through the section of I-70 that parallels the railroad twice a year for 15+ years now, never seen a single train moving. Of course, we see the parked cars all the time and even they barely move.

@railroad33 the plow also created downforce

How do they keep the ploughs wheels on the tracks if theres snow and ice on it? Pure weight?
dasparkylad 1 year ago
@dasparkylad Yes its the weight. This plough has sand and concrete in it. It don't take much ice to derail it as you can see on my other video " Snow Plow Derailment". Thanks !

I love your videos lol. By far my favorite train vids on youtube. Do you guys still run the SP and ATSF colors today? I'm sure you've witnessed alot of what I wish I could only see; born Aug '86

We still do run them and some others that they leased including our own Kyle ones. Thanks!! and glad you enjoyed the vids. Hopefully we'll get more snow this winter where we can run the snow plow again and get more vids. put out.
