​@attrell so why didn't you make a winter coat for the drone. You cruel. Drones lives matter

The fence on the left side is causing the drifts, doesn’t help with the fence on the right side of the tracks either. A snow fence farther out on the left side of the tracks in the pasture would help reduce the drifts and keep the snow where it does some good.

So so beautiful. I love this. Not the train getting stuck. But what an amazing sight. Thanks for this! ❤️❤️

There's a vid here of a trolley on the green line doing exactly that. It goes as far as it can, then back a up a couple hundred yards and plows ahead another ten or twenty wards until stopped by the snow. Rinse and repeat. The surprising thing is that it was one of those horrid LRV's. I kept thinking it was going to fall apart, lol.

Wow great view, there must be some major challenges for rail travel this year. Seems like snow is extra deep in many areas of the prairies.

That's some deep a$$ snow right there.

He'll be through on the next pass.

As a kid I’d try to run my Lionel train down the track after putting corn on it. Didn’t work until it was cleared from the railhead. I have no idea why I did that 50 years ago.

Looked like the Little Engine that COULDN’T!

Tried this once while hauling 80,000lbs. Only 50 meters to go before wheels stopped turning. Waited a day to have them clear the road to continue commute. It drifted only 20 inches, and it was hard as concrete. Either that, I would have been driving a couple miles in reverse.

So where is the "clears" part here? It looks rather like it is getting stuck.

Geez that should have been cleared ahead of train. Hats off to the driver.

We had our snow for the year, it was all of two snowflakes deep. Totally disrupted our lives for the longest time, but was pretty.

Don't think it's really stuck. And it looks like snow was plowed coming from other direction up to about 50 feet from where this plow stops.

came up a little short there...

No, that locomotive is too heavy and the speed is too low to derail in this instant. The wheels are on cleared rails. The locomotive just powers out. They’ll just back up and hit it again. If you were backing empty rail cars over that spot, they would definitely derail as they are too light and nothing in front is clearing the snow away.

More videos about Canada. The climate is similar to the Russian Federation. This year there was a little more snow in the Russian Federation and that’s it, collapse.

Shelter belt? Lol. If you can even get a tree to grow maybe. But then it’ll just drift in harder because the snow won’t blow across the rail line if you did have trees there. It’s not a “no trees” problem. It’s a “too much snow” problem. Trees won’t fix that.

Have seen a pile of snow blown through like that since a party in the 1980s in Miami 🤣
