PLEASE check this video out!

It is a model of a rotary snowplow clearing the track of a garden railway in Brno of the Czech Republic. How much more realistic can you get when trying to clear the track in winter without direct human interaction?

The Lehigh Valley Railroad, the Route of the Black Diamond Express, John Wilkes and Maple Leaf.

Very cool, although this was posted on many forums in 2009.

There's lots of rotary snowplow videos on youtube.

You can spend hours watching them.
