Today there is less then one mile of Snow Sheds remaining. However the problem that lead to the design of the "Tunnel Motor"is still present. Tunnel 41, known at "The Big Hole" is two miles long. Also the present speed limit for Amtrak on the Donner Pass Route is 30 MPH. That puts you in The Big Hole (Tunnel 41) for 4 minutes. I have heard of problems with smme of the UP units stalling in the tunnel.
