Drift Busting the Iowa Interstate! Nonstop RS3L!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 янв 2024
- On an incredibly frigid night following an onslaught of snowfall, the roads had been clear but the railroads needed to get up to speed. With IAIS 9511 on the point, a modified gondola with a plow attached to it, X-CBSA made it's way across the system to clear the rails. This video follows them at a handful of spots between Booneville and South Amana Iowa.

Soild engineer at the controls. That RS3L sounds fantastic
Neat to see an actual gondola mounted plow after only seeing pictures in books.
That leslie sure got its use! Nice video!
My goodness those RS3 horns are epic!
Thanks for the video. Night time is a great time to film RR plowing, it heightens the visual effect.
Good video but definitely a volume alert needed due to horn honking!
Hell yeah!! Hammer down let the white stuff fly! Awesome my friend
Fantastic video!
Awesome video there!
Great video thank you
Cool catch
Must have one hell of an air supply, or a massive air compressor. The horn is doing as much or more work than the plow. I know, its all safety related.
Very big air compressor. It's meant to run the brakes for a while train, so running the horn should be easy, even though it does take a lot of air.
Nice catches!
Open Her Up! Let Her Eat!😅
Very nice Evan!
That gondola-- plow---- ex RI , OR MILW., OR CNW???
Sensational video !!!!!!!! James.
❤❤
Good video, thank you.

Didn’t get stuck. No derailment. Just a lot of noise.
CRIP , sort of …
Jeez, Chris lay off the noise maker 😂
Don't know much about the railroads do you ?
@IanHotson A lot more than you probably. Besides, the engineer on that train is one of my best friends, so I give him a hard time about blowing horns.
Needs more cowbell.
Tell him to stop draining the air tank and making the air compressor run nonstop
Sometimes, they do that to make sure that the horn does not plug from all the snow.
Hey billy! I cant see anything! just blast the horn!!
Only in HO is there more whistling.
1:10😊
1:14😨

He needs to sound the horn more
Where I live we don't have train horns anymore.
The sound upsets the rich people and their kids.
I would hate to be that delicate, those trains used to put me to sleep.
I have not had a good nights sleep in years!
I really miss them.
I would like to move away from here but the obama years ruined the housing market in my area.
So I am stuck here for the rest of my life. The place is to run down now.
bidenomics has sealed that fate.
Rich people suck
Much better video with the tv on mute.
Much better with the TV all the way up to let that flawless Leslie rock your house!
Engineer must be deaf by now.
Or one awful headache
Everyone and their dog is awake that's for sure
@@cedarvalleyrail8419damn right they are
Everyone comments but no one asks why in hell he continuously blasts the horns. Even after he passes the crossings. Seems kinda pointless.
cus it's fun
Crews were instructed to blow whenever hitting drifts to prevent the horn clogging up with snow
@@MBTrains1205 Also, the engineer's forward vision is severely restricted by that style plow. It seems reasonable for the crew to err on the side of safety.
I'd say the above two comments are correct. I have heard the clogging the horn up issue before. You'll notice that he let's off the horn as soon as the engine clears the cloud of snow.
He probably letting his boy toot the horn while his snacking 😂
