several years ago someone posted a beautiful video of trains traveling through the winter snows.
i can't remember the title. maybe "winter trains", "Christmas trains"?

Go to youtube and type in WINTER TRAINS, there are several to choose from.

i looked there . nothing comes to mind what was posted here years ago. the original poster may be deceased, i am not sure
Are you talking the trains with the rotary snow plows on the front end of them, moving massive drifts of snow off of the tracks?
Like this?

those ol boys got a workout. Yep,watched the whole thing. Love it.
Of all the narrow gage railroads that I've been on that one by far has been my favorite. You could sure hear when they lost traction.
Yes.
Looked at some of the other related links on the side bar. Had to post one to wife's FB page. Clearing Donner summit, and getting buried in the avalanche in doing so. She is from south shore Tahoe and knows that whole area well.
Here ya go.

Mighty powerful machines. You know how heavy that snow is.
Thanks for the memories. In my 42 years on the railroad seen a lot of snow moved. Seen rotary snow movers, but never seen one in operation, we used the wedge type with the wings.
THANKS GUYS
