Remarks: Southwest PA got dumped with 30+ inches of snow which shut down CSX for a few days. Here we see some action from my front porch, and infront of my house when traffic started moving again afew days later. We got these moves plus others within an hour. Thanks for watching. Jackmp294

Those poor ol' snow filled horns! Thanks Jack.

Where did they re-rounting train traffic during these two days, when the snow came down?

Now that's a great video there.

Jack, this is just Amazing! I cant imagine seeing something like this happening again! Love to see those SD50's thunder through it!

I feel cold just watching that.

Great video, Jack. Some interesting horns as well!

Everyone on your street must be a rail fan. I would love it!

It has to be nerve racking to some extent being the first train through and not being able to see the tracks!

Beautiful shots!

Reminds me of watching a rotary plow at work following the snowfall of '78-'79, when most of northwestern Kansas was buried under three plus feet of snow. Great video though. Now I got to dig around in my video boxes and post a few similar videos.

What a great place to live !. you can hear in a couple of those shots that the Air Chimes were a bit snow clogged. A B-36-7 !. No doubt nearly all are gone now. In a couple of shots, one can see steam coming off one of the GE's Radiators ! That's real Railroad action. Great fun !
