Remarks & Notes |
Snow in Iowa has become somewhat a rare event in past 2 winters. Here 470's crew wheel slips thru the snow as they try to pull this tonnage up the 1.4% grade west of Calmar. The engineer has back off a notch now since he has made the grade. He will try to keep a steady pace as he pulls the rest of the train off the grade and the train into Calmar. |
