  • 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.

    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.

    • @HammondOfTexas0
      @HammondOfTexas0 4 месяца назад

      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.

      Sometimes, they do that to make sure that the horn does not plug from all the snow.

    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.

    Everyone comments but no one asks why in hell he continuously blasts the horns. Even after he passes the crossings. Seems kinda pointless.

      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.
