Just because you're snowed-in here-and-now doesn't mean you wouldn't have been in similar circumstances there-and-then. I

n this case, the passenger train "City of San Francisco" has been stranded in over ten feet of snow after a blizzard within the legendary Donner Pass.

The travelers survived this journey, unlike their fabled predecessors, the legendary Donner Party of the mid-19th century, who, when stranded, resorted to cannibalism.

    I wonder if back then the first thing the passangers did after being rescued was suing the railroad company

    The most incredible thrill of living 25 wonderful years in the Sierra Nevadas was the knowledge that man was just a mere speck and the forces of nature clearly evident around him could crush him like a bug at damned near any moment.

    I too live very near to Donner Pass/Truckee and have found myself in a few nasty blizzards/snowstorms. Isn't hard to imagine how someone or something can get stranded there...even today.
