Snow Fighters-1

An over-looked piece of essential railroad equipment that had to be ready to go to work at a moment's notice, nearly all of North America's railroads owned equipment to move snow. Includes some photographs of plows in action, some fresh from the paint shop. Includes two former Rock Island tender snowplows painted in C&NW in colors.

This first volume will picture the equipment of railroads with names beginning with A through D. The proper name of the company will be used in the alphabetical list. Railroads such as the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific (Rock Island) will be included in this volume. It includes the Santa Fe (AT&SF), Burlington Northern, BNSF, Canadian National, Canadian Pacific, and Denver & Rio Grande Western plus many more.
