Rick Morgan General Fascinating locomotives- but no snow plows? 12/28/2012 12:21:42 PM
Peider SwissTrip General I assume as Finland is mostly a flat country and temperature often quite low (around 0 degrees F), snow is light and will be pushed away by speed. Also Finland has no snow rotary equipment, just some medium sized snow ploughs (see end of this album). Ice is much the bigger trouble to equipment. In the meantime they installed special de-icing stations as on airports to get ice off the boogies. Regards, Peider 12/28/2012 2:04:03 PM
