 RN>> I might.  I'd like to see that locomotive with the big fan plowing

 GH> A huge snow blower. Yup might be a sight to see.

The Southern Pacific Railroad has used rotary snowplows in the Sierra Nevada
mountains for years.  Most railroads - even little ones - that have to deal with
a lot of snow have them.  They aren't really needed out here on the plains
because the snow doesn't get deep enough.
