Plow or Melter?�� We did have a jet engine on a hirail truck drying out a crossing in Canmore a couple of years back.�� Sure was noisy!�� Last I remember it was stored in Lake Louise.

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 ï¿½

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
