Remarks & Notes

The cab of Union Pacific rotary snowplow No. 900082 allows the crew to operate the motive power back in the train as well as the operations of the plow itself. The unique “marine windows” are special, self-clearing spinning window panes that avoid accumulating snow and ice from building up on the glass, allowing a clear view even in the worst of conditions. And with that snow chute spitting massive amounts of snow only a few feet in front of the cab, those windows come in handy!
