Snow piling up in Durango on New Year's Eve 2021 required the D&S to run a “Work Extra” Flanger/Spreader “OF” ahead of the Cascade Canyon Winter Train powered by (recently converted to burn oil) K36 #482. I almost get covered in snow as the flanger spreads snow at Shalona Crossing and I have included the Rockwood departure to clear snow up the Canyon. I “Chased and Paced” both the diesel helper #101 and oil fired K36 #480 pulling the Cascade Canyon Winter Train up the Animas Valley where they couple up for 2.5% grade up Hermosa Hill to Rockwood. Hear and see them work together crossing the Highway and again at Shalona Crossing.

This is the beginning of a spectacular time on the Durango and Silverton. For the first time in its history, the railroad has both steam and diesels working together

It's... interesting seeing a diesel locomotive leading a steam locomotive.

Sounds like they fixed the Powell 3 chime on 482. It sounds so much better than it did in 2019

D&S sure is always beautiful when the snow comes. If I ever get the chance to make a second visit I definitely would like to come during the winter, i would love to go back this summer but I have plans to visit C&T with my aunt & uncle as well as visit another famous tourist line.

Hello Bob, wish you a happy new year. A wonderful video from the snow ride. You don't see such a ride with the Flanger/Spreader that often. Thank you for showing me.
