Apart from a distinct lack of 160 ton steam locos, the snow plough is not
going to get the ice off the conductor rail. *Great idea otherwise...
And you don't need a "160 ton steam train", or did he mean "locomotive"?
I thought it was only the media and the unwashed masses who didn't know the
difference between a train and a locomotive.
And what does this "solution" do for the third rail?
