 | | Re: Whose Snowblower?
|
| (...) Technically that's a "Rotary" rather than a snowblower or a snowplow. Snowblowers and snowplows are things you mount on the front of tractors or trucks (at their very largest) and aren't used by "real railroaders". If it wasn't a rotary it (...) (22 years ago, 8-May-02, to lugnet.trains)

My suspicion is that the crane boom swinging packs a lot (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.trains)

It is in a lot of ways like the UCS boxes, light cardboard, and IIRC, flaps that could theoretically be peeled back (but usually just rip). There is an inner box to the (...)
