Sorry Ken your link is just a ad for BA productions the trailer vid’ shown on the link does not contain a alternate solution.
I’ve seen more of that vid’ elsewhere (PBS last month ?) and don’t recall nothing about cleaning the blades or plows, which is actually what I was asking about.
Possibly Steve, but where is a vid or documentation from the railways showing/hi-liting alternate which would imply that CP is doing something more expensive aka not viable, steam maybe but seemingly just an opinion of a few !
"…if some peoples would come up with a cheaper process they would adopt it …… How do the other railways remove their accumulations of frozen organics from their plows, and other snowmoving equipment ? … "
Actually I was wondering about the steam trucks that quite a few municipalities use to thaw out (as required) the storm water and sewer lines during the winter/spring season. But ya would think the railways have tried …maybe even used that tech’ already, but no railfan’ has caught it on a medium to share to the masses.
