Each one of those modern locomotives weighs about 150 to 200 tons or more!
Average snow and ice accumulations are not a problem.
In the really deep snow the railroads use snow blowers instead of plows.
Fame? Ego?
@Reuters
China allows first-ever U.S. rice imports in 'goodwill gesture' ahead of trade talks https://reut.rs/2CAseMc
Hiularious pic above.
Actually though, China’s treatment of our rice won’t make any difference- we’re too expensive.
It’s ‘fake news’.
Actual jet plane engines are also used for snow and ice clearance on rr tracks.
From the trip the Trumps took to visit our servicemen.
Yeah, I’m impressed that they’re ‘carrying on’ with the mission in the Haijin Pocket.
All that area with it’s oil will likely end up in Syrian control.
Also gives ne hope that it’s an indication Syria and Kurds are working out their problems. Which are not small.
ROFL, I need to print that.
:-)
Checking in.
Thanks to all of you for your prayers - please keep them coming! :-)
New meds are working. Feeling better. (Considering that this is better, its a little scary thinking about how sick I was! Lol!)
Until tomorrow!
Much love to all of you dear Deplorables!

THAT blower is huge!
I suppose these were developed early on for the mountain passes. We had a cabin in the Sierra’s at 7200 before escaping Mexifornia. Snowfall between 25-30 feet before the drought years. Then down to 15’. But, no railroads around ;(
Yeah, my mom and her brothers had my grandmother’s will in probate for so long the lawyers got most of the money.
Glad you are doing better. Keep doing what you’re doing then!!!! (Reminds me, I need to go check the keywords :-)

The Low IQ of the Obama EPA Mercury Rule
The Trump EPA is proposing to repair some of the junk science used to justify the Obama EPAs Mercury and Air Toxics Standard (MATS), a 2012 rule that imposed stringent mercury emissions standards on coal-fired power plants and that led to the (ongoing) shutdowns of many US coal plants.
The Obama EPA estimated the (power plant compliance) costs of the rule to be about $10 BILLION per year. But the Obama EPA could only estimated a maximum of $6 MILLION in direct benefits from the rules mandated reduction in smokestack mercury emissions.
Since $6 MILLION vs. $10 BILLION is obviously a laughable cost-benefit ratio, the Obama EPA decided to game the cost-benefit analysis by adding in so-called co-benefits of reduced mercury emissions. What were these co-benefits?
The Obama EPA figured that since reducing mercury emissions would also reduce particulate (PM2.5) emissions from coal plants (either by improved scrubbing of emissions and/or plant shutdowns), the rule would also be reducing deaths caused by PM2.5. As the Obama EPA valued each of the tends of thousands of lives to be saved by the rule at as much as $9 MILLION, this co-benefit calculation added about $90 BILLION to the benefit side of the Obama EPAs equation and $90 BILLION vs. $10 BILLION is clearly a lot more rule friendly than $6 MILLION vs. $10 BILLION.
As JunkScience.com readers know, we have long ago debunked the notion that PM2.5 emissions kill anyone, anywhere.
As the MATS Regulatory Impact Analysis document reveals, the $6 MILLION in benefits arises from the consumption of freshwater fish containing less mercury.
More specifically, the $6 MILLION in benefits comes from higher IQs among individuals eating freshwater fish containing less mercury. Try not to spit up your coffee when you read the the Obama EPAs description of the estimated IQ benefit.

UPDATE Baltimore/Washington Intl Airport reports a partial equipment failure involving a jet bridge. 6 individuals transported to local hospitals w/ non life threatening injuries. #BWI
FYI... Jetway is brand/trademark. Jet bridge is the walkway connecting terminal to plane.
