Remarks & Notes

Snow Fighter

Rotary steam powered snow plow OY is in the battle for the fight with deep snow on its accent up Cumbres Pass. In full view, Windy Point and Cumbres Pass is looming in the distance. The assault tool more than 40 minute to reach the pass. Here, well past Coxo locomotives #487 and #484 are shoving hard behind this venerable snow fighting machine in 4-6’ deep snow.

Landscape photography is difficult due to the challenge of combining good light and good scenery. Good railroad photography enters another level of complexity since it requires the first two while there is a train in view.
