Most of the snow had been previously plowed by my SD45s w/'booseplow and FA/FBs running this same blade.  All the Pacific had to do was a bit of cleanup and have fun running.

Robert,

I keep my passenger equipment clean, as most of the real stuff was while I was growing up.  My diesel freight locos and freight cars get weathered.  I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

That's cool, but yer stuff's too clean. You need to bum it up some.

Today, I installed a plow blade to the front truck of my Pacific.  Then it ran around the HedgeApple RioGram RR for about 2 1/2 hours.  Fun, Fun.  I ran it because I haven't seen many Pacifics running in the snow.

I hope you enjoy.
