Snowfall

[NW Mailing List]

When the NWHS visited Roanoke a couple of years back they had a jet 
engine snow blower in the MOW yard.

  It seems upstate New York is buried under 7 or  8 feet of snow.  That
sounds more like Donner Pass on the Union Pacific.  One has to wonder
if either CSX or Norfolk Soithern has anything resembling a snow
plow, i.e.  a rotary plow, etc.   Those so-called snow plows that come
attached to the front of 6-axle locomotives are a laughable joke  in
that kind of snowfall.  Just curious.
