Hi, I work for a road in northern Maine (read cold & snow). Back in '95 the railroad was sold to a bunch of venture capitalists who must have wondered the same thing you did. I took a frieght out after an 20" storm and could not see a thing over 20 or 25 mph as the snow would be up in the windshield. After doubleing one hill and tripleing another we only made half our run before we hoged. Now after the first train goes throgh the "trail" should be good for the rest right? Wrong! If you don't run the plow the track dosent get flanged. Now every single wheel flange has to fight through the snow and feels like you're pulling a 10 lb. aplication. Also, with each wheel kicking up snow you can not see your train. They went back to running plows after we started burning up traction motors, presumably from constantly running in the snow. Slofr8.
