Amtrak Train Plows Through Snow

############################# Video Source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zmsm9lW4NNE

This video is unique because it is recorded during the 2022-to-2023 winter. During this winter, a parade of atmospheric rivers dumped at least 677 inches of snow at Donner Summit, CA, making it the second-most-snowy winter there in recorded history. (The average annual snowfall there is more than 400 inches). • In this video the Union Pacific Railroad (UP) has begun plowing the Soda Springs Road grade crossing after yet another substantial snowfall. The UP has not completed clearing the grade crossing, however. • Then the Westbound Amtrak California Zephyr train plows through piles of snow! • 0:00 Intro • 0:11 Amtrak California Zephyr plows through snow! • We will be publishing more videos of railroading under these extreme weather conditions of Donner Pass in January 2023 through April 2023. • Come back soon to see more Highball Railroad Images train videos! We are releasing them at 12:00 p.m. Pacific time every Friday in January and February 2024 and then at 12:00 p.m. Pacific time the first and third Friday of every month. • But only while supplies last!
