My wife works for a moving company. These photos were emailed to her from a fellow employee who works with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe RR in Nebraska.

Is that what they used to call a “flanger” engine?

Mike Rowe, host of the Discovery Channel’s Dirty Jobs might be able to make a Cleanest, Dirty Job show out of this type of snow removal.

I am glad they don’t need to use this on the BNSF line next to our house (about 150 feet to the tracks).

I have a couple of HO models of these. Some day I’ll have enough room for a track layout and have a scene of them clearing snow like where I grew up in the Sierra Nevada mountains.

Funny thing is I live just a couple miles away from the Transportation Museum in Alaska, they have a working small scale track that runs all over the property you can ride on, it would be really neat to have a scale working model of a snowblower like that and have a special winter cruise.
