Remarks: BNSF's rotary works slowly thru the man made snow drift near MP 51 on the Zap Line. Crews worked most of the day digging out the 2 drifts along the tracks at MP 51 and piling the snow on the tracks so it could be blown into the ditch. The rotary plowed at .5 mph using the slow speed on the MAC's.

Its funny how the railroad spent so much time keeping the snow OFF the tracks, and now to get rid of the drifts, they're putting as much as they can back ON the tracks.

Nice catch and definitely justifies the effort of getting there.

Great shot of a rotary at work, especially one being pushed by two executive MACs.
