Remarks & Notes 
Batten Kill RS3's 605 and 4116 team up with their ex D&H flanger and good old fashioned manpower to clear the line after almost 16" of snow fell from two weekend storms. After pushing through each crossing they would back the train up and shovel out the crossings. I got the hint when I saw an extra had been tossed of the pilot and pitched in.......... It was well worth the effort!

A tribute of appreciation for the workers who maintain the track, keeping our railways in shape, regardless of weather and danger, and run the trains to supply our nation. This is a commitment to show some of the work of these fine people.
