<p>[quote user="igoldberg"]</p><p> In January 1951 the City of San Francisco got stuck when try to pass through a snow drift and then was hit by an avalance in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Th rotary plow sent to dig them out was hit by an avalance and buried. It took three days to get the passengers and crew off and another week to clear the line to allow traffic to flow again. It is not just drifts that snow plows have to worry about</p><p>.<br></p><p>[/quote]</p><p> </p><p>Make that January 1952......</p><p> </p><p> </p>
