February 14,2007





Wow, we got snow!!! I mean it ain't Oswego style snow, but it's snow. Just as I pulled up to the yard a WB stack train pulled up to the signal at 369 and stopped. The snow jet was also busy in the yard clearing switches this morning. The snow jet is a piece of machinery that uses a jet engine similar to one in the U.S. Army's CH-47 Chinook helicopters to melt and blast snow from switch points to get them moving again in snowy areas. Also as you can see the Amtrak Genesis is still marooned in the yard. Now her face is covered in snow and the red markers are still lit.
