Snow Slides Halt Trains: Rotary snowplows battle huge drifts caused by snowslides that halt train traffic for a week. Spectacular tasks to keep the railroads clear. Lots of snow in the mountains somewhere. Train and men. MS of two men walking and looking at a building of sorts (Yale is printed on the building). POV Train coming towards you with a huge fan on the front of the engine. The purpose is to clear snow from the railroad tracks. Mounds of snow everywhere, train plowing and fan is rotating removing snow. Men working diligently shoveling and removing snow from the tracks.
