PLOWING AFTER A FOUR INCH SNOWFALL Jan. 13, 2011

[home]

We had a snowstorm on Tuesday night (the 11th), predicted to be anywhere from 3 to 10 inches of snow depending on who did the predicting, but it ended up as 3 or 4 inches with a lot of drifting the next day.  I made a video and it's on the home page.

Bella is showing us where the tracks are underneath the snow.  If you look hard, you can see a trace of the rails in the lower part of the picture.

Engine Number Two is making a second pass, cleaning up a few spots.  During the first run, I made a video, and it happened so fast I didn't have time for a still shot.

About the same spot as the picture above, but this is what it looks like after a run with the snowplow.  The black and white brings out the shadows better than color.

The snow had drifted a bit, as you can tell by the way the snowbanks on the side get higher away from the camera.
