Very great shots, been hoping to get a pic like that for several years.

Thanks, Scott. Don't give up...you'll get lucky like me sometime.

That has got to be fun to be in the cab while doing that, I would imagine its like carving thourgh 3 feet of powder at 40mph on a snowmobile or plowing thourgh the mud on a wheel loader or pickup truck.

I hear ya. I miss riding snowmobiles as a kid and blasting through drifts. That was always so much fun. Gotta get another one someday.

Jon, that third shot rocks. It just seems like an explosion

Jon? haha

Yeah what did they say??

What did who say? Where? When? What is your favorite color?

Thanks, Jon. Sunday morning might be another good opportunity to get some pics of the Amtrak blasting through a crossing. I imagine many plow trucks will be out tonight all the way through tomorrow morning. Should be some good opportunities SOMEWHERE between GR and St. Joe (where most of the snow will be falling today and tonight).

Another good snow busting opportunity will be on the GRE monday morning. With all the snow that'll be on the ground by then, plus plow trucks, you can bet they'll be busting drifts!

Awesome photos set JT I think the speed limit is 50 or 55 through that part of the line near Riverside. Superliners and the sun too! Awesome!
