New snowplowing vid - three different plows

General Discussion

The Youtube link is for a short vid of three different snowblades used with my FAFB locos. The vid was taken over three days as well. By the third day, the snow had melted off some.

I found that the Aristo Gondola plow was more successful on curves due to a longer wheelbase, than the 'booseplow. Both trucks are nearer to the ends of the car. Now, I need to modify the 'booseplow since I like its looks better.

Neat video. Probably less overhang on the curves for the gondola. And the brick doesnt hurt , too. I have a couple of those Aristo plows, I need to cut one up and widen it for 1:20 use.

Jim, that is a SENSATIONAL vid - definitely one for the grandkids to watch! Putting a brick in the gondola seems like a good idea - not something you can do with a caboose.
