Snow Plowing Train action on the Withrow Sub -Soo Line-
In this video, we see Canadian Pacific run a snowplow on the Withrow Sub in Minnesota, and with a recently rebuilt Soo Line Jordan Spreader leading the way. The plow is powered by two CP GP20Cs, which at the time, were very new to the railroad. We'll see the plow as it comes up to Johnson St Ne, and again as it goes under Silver Lake Road as its wings open up. The plow never went more then about 10mph, but was still a very neat sight as it pushed snow out of the way, and opened up the right of way.
