Remarks & Notes

This former GN snow dozer (972532, X-7629) creates a ground blizzard as it rolls west on the Brainerd Sub at 45 MPH. When hard packed snow gets above the rail they call out the dozers, which help eliminate issues with air hoses separating when coming in contact with the ice/snow (also helps keep snow off the trucks and brake shoes).
