Great Capture!! I wonder if the crew could see anything? Must have been neat to see.

Unreal shot Richard.

Whoa! That is an awesome capture!

Absolutely phenomenal shot, Richard!

Posted by Travis Dewitz on February 26, 2008

What a catch!

Posted by J J Schrader on February 26, 2008

Another great shot Scott and a PCA. I love winter!

Posted by Terry Chicwak on February 26, 2008

Great catch. Love the action of the snow getting scattered into mid-air as you froze the moment. Well done Mr. Marsh.

Posted by Thomas Berry on February 26, 2008

Wild shot! Can I get one of these to do my driveway?

Posted by christophersmuller.com on February 26, 2008

Might as well through it on the front page now! Great shot. Even though we haven't been above freezing in weeks, we haven't had any snow up here in northern MN. Looks like you found all of our snow!

Posted by Chad LaRock on February 26, 2008

This is one of the best snow blasting shots I have seen this winter. Makes you wonder if they stayed on the rails.

Posted by Ken Szok on February 27, 2008

Great timing and capture. You got my PCA for this one. Ken

That's AWESOME! I love being able to see stuff like this when I'm out with my boyfriend. One of my favorite pictures of his is similar to this but not as huge of a spray. Lucky catch!

Nothing stops CN from getting thier job done, on time! PCA!

Posted by Adam Weddle on March 4, 2008

Amazing! Looks like a ruff ride.

Posted by Gregory Weirich on March 4, 2008

Amazing timing. Did you get hit with any of the snow?

Posted by Ryan Parent on March 4, 2008

Thats awesome! Congrats on a well deserved POTW Richard.

Posted by Ian MacMillan on March 4, 2008

Very nice! One of the best snow shots this year! PCA from me.

Posted by Andrew Kim on March 4, 2008

That deserves a PCA Award. Nice job and nice composition.

Posted by Erick Anderson on March 4, 2008

I have to wonder whether they got bogged down in all that snow.

Posted by Brian Hiscock on March 5, 2008

KABOOM! Nice.

Posted by Dave LeBlanc on March 10, 2008

Wonderful capture!

Posted by James Hansen on March 10, 2008

Great photo Richard, it's fantastic how you caught the flying chunks of snow as the loco ploughs through them. Keep up the great work

Posted by Kevin R Wilson-Smith on June 5, 2008

Excellent! Wish I was there!
