2025-2026 Winter Running - Post your pictures here

Well, somebody had to do it:


We got about 5" on Wedensday night, but it was way too cold for my liking to plow on Thursday morning. Some of it has melted and/or blown away since. It was 30 degrees this morning, so I sent a train out to clear things out.

Cheers,
Matt

Shay pushing the snow plow

I was going to put this in the fall running as it is still fall but this is a better place for it. The Shay was doing good until the snow got under the wheels of the Shay. I will have to make some wings for the plow.

I tried to upload the video but it told me the file was to big.

Looks wonderful, Mark.

You should be able to copy the YouTube URL and paste it here. If that doesn’t work, right-click your video and “copy embed code” and then paste it (which I had to do here).

COOL it worked, so easy now that I know how :man_facepalming:. Thanks to everybody who has helped me learn how to post a video.

Not as exciting as snow removal, but…we are pleased to show off North Star after her summer slumber.

This venerable and oft-rebuilt ten-wheeler and her Christmas gloss will serve discriminating revelers throughout Advent and Christmas on round-island tours (Whoops! Didn’t notice that pilot wheel before I snapped that photo!).

Ulaula, meanwhile, will provide similar themed services for customers on a more limited budget.

Motive power demands due to a bumper harvest may preclude rustic Christmas excursions along the permanent tracks of the M&K Sugar Co., but we will see! Regardless, if you seek Christmas memories, tell your agent, “Eh! I like go on the Triple O!”

Here is a few from the last few weeks of winter running.

That phot will be worth something someday.

Just for clarification, were we supposed to watch the “birdies” in that photo?

I suppose so, David Meashey

P.S. Should have had Goose from Top Gun.
