Rotary snowplows clearing the Donner Summit in 2011's severe snowfall. Featuring MCMR&HS' Vice President Lonnie Dickson plus the tireless and dedicated railroad workers who keep America's rail lines operational for freight and Amtrack.

Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better understand what the orator is describing. Special thanks to veteran rail road employees. Sharing personal information/experiences pertaining to the rotary equipment. Making this presentation more authentic & possible. Watching this video from the comfort of my computer room. Along the " Space Coast of Florida🐊🐊🐊. ( 2-17-24 ). Wishing viewers/R.R. workers a safe/healthy/prosperous (2024) 🌈🎉😉.
Those are my babies, spent ten yrs rebuilding the rotaries, flangers, and spreaders. Worked closely with Dennis and Lonnie!

Did they eliminate the steam systems on the rebuilt rotaries? From the videos I've seen of them, no steam is evident and they don't seem to have steam whistles.

@@evanstauffer4470 No, they went with a newer system. Can’t remember the manufacturer’s name. But yes they still have boilers onboard !
Awesome video Thank You!
It’s an amazing how “ Mother Nature “ is so much unpredictable and 100 % smarter than mankind!!
Very cool. Obscene amount of snow. Imagine spending that many hours working a historic piece of equipment while wearing your stupid high visibility vest 😂😂😂😂
