[PRCo] Re: North Coast Rail News

[Herb Brannon]

I will have to research the snow sweepers. I have never seen any. Our
electric locomotive has a snow plow attached during the snow months (most of
the year).
I also find it interesting that some people on The List are able to open the
links and some are not. Also, I put captions on each photo, however, I see
these were also stripped away.

I have to run right now. Have to run the hvy rail until 12:30am. Will tackle
these problems later.
