Remarks & Notes |
The Illinois Central Railroad operates a wedge snow plow and two locomotives to clear its rail line between Clinton and Gilman, Illinois on Thursday Feb. 3, 2011. CN 9571 and a sister GP38-2 are shoving the plow Northbound as they did into a snowdrift.
The last time a plow was called to clear the line of drifting snow was in 2004. The plow was scheduled to run to Gilman, turn and run back south through Clinton to Springfield.
