Why are you reporting this puzzle?

This train has a front-mounted rotary snow plow to clear track over White Pass, Alaska. The rotary plow receives power from a separate engine located immediately behind the plow. Now this train is relegated to a static display in Skagway.

@diakonos. Just fyi..I live in Ohio.USA..but my father ancestry is Swiss..I dream often of what it would be like to live in Switzerland.

@Aileenrubi, you're quite right--The Swiss had such a steam powered train starting in 1913. https://www.newlyswissed.com/switzerlands-spectacular-xrot-snow-plough-train/ One hopes the Lake District where you live does not have to resort to such solutions.

I think I saw a similar plow on a Swiss train.. they sure get the job done.

Sounds great! Wow, eight times cruising the inside passage. What fun.

We sailed with Princess Cruise lines on the inside passage trip 8 times when we lived in Alaska. Visited most of the towns multiple times on day tours, so this brings back lots of memories.

You're welcome, Bev. Thank you for your comment.
