I posted a new snowplowing vid on youtube. The first half is night plowing in snowing powdery snow. The second part was filmed by grandson, CJ, in deep icy packed snow. The newly built caboose plow was used [wt.=5lbs]. Several derails occured. The last derail broke the coupler.

Hope you enjoy.

I’d say the grandkids were having fun. 
That last snow looked just a little too crunchy to be plowed successfully.
More plowing today - still crunchy. This time with the UP FA/FB & Aristo Trackside TE remote. Plowing out Ozark, AR.

Being able to really plow through real snow is just so cool. Almost makes me wish we had snow here.
I wish I could send you mine…
