Snow Plow Train -Plow Action, Large Drifts, and Lots Of Snow!-

December has been a SNOWY month with lots of blizzards. The railroads are certainly feeling it; In order to keep the tracks and ROW clear for trains, railroads have been putting their plows to good use.
In this video we will chase a plow on the BNSF Railway from Appleton, to Big Stone City, SD. This line hadn't seen any action for days due to a blizzard, and Christmas. While chasing was tough due to the ice covered roads, I was able to get some spectacular shots. There are even some neat slow motion sections, and they look fantastic!

@kingtigercrownestate9102 Жыл бұрын

How much of that snow always settles right back onto the tracks behind the path of these trains? Probably a good amount always does. It is a good ingenious solution but not a perfect one snow has to be blown really far far away in order for at least some of it even to not settle right back onto the tracks.
