Jeff,

Would the museum be referring to the Alco/MLW switchers that CN equipped
with snow blowers?  I do0 not know what powered the snow blower.   IF that
is what they are referring to I do not think they are are service anymore.

Hi Everyone,

 

The CPHA Executive receives all sorts of questions and request for
information from students, authors, researchers and museums.  Sometimes we
can answer them and sometimes we just go "I dunno?".   

 

Here's one from a museum .

 

Would anyone have some information on the jet powered snow plows?  Like,
when did they went into service and are they still in service.  Any
technical info details?  

 

 

 

Thanks,

 

Jeff Pinchbeck

CPHA, vice Chairman
