Welcome to the Trainscapes segment! Each week here on Geek Alabama, Trainscapes will feature train content including videos of trains and behind the scenes action of trains and locomotives. Some people have an interest in seeing trains, and we here at Geek Alabama aim to please the train lovers!
Winter is a formidable obstacle for railroads, especially during blizzard conditions, with blinding, and heavy snow! Watch as a number of different trains fight through blizzards, work the rails in bitter cold, and bust snow drifts along the line!
We’ll focus on action in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul area after some heavy snow had coated the entire region after several blizzards. Things start off with a bang as train L506 RIPS open the line, kicking up tons of snow. After this, we’ll switch gears to CPKC and see a massive land barge struggling up the line. Once this is done we’ll see snowy action along the BNSF, TCWR, and plenty of passenger trains throwing snow all over the place.
