Under the cover of darkness, SPMW 4031 heads east through heavy snow at Soda Springs. On the night of March 12th, 2023, Union Pacific’s snow fighters found themselves in an all-out battle for the mountain.

A series of heavy winter storms dumped multiple feet of snow across the Sierra Nevada Mountains. With a rotary snowplow working the #2 track, SPMW 4031 was tasked with clearing the #1 tack between Shed 10 and Norden. The snow fighters would work long into the night before arriving at their eastern terminus at Truckee Snow Headquarters.

I had to sneak up on the sidewalk but stay hidden behind trees to get some shot of the gang having their breakfast buffet at the neighbours house up the road so not to spook them.

I want to thank each and everyone who took the time to visit my little space here on Flickr. Have a super day!

The morning light, the lily white, declare their maker's praise. This is my father's world, I rest me in the thought of rocks and trees, of skies and seas; His hand the wonders wrought. ~Amy Grant

Probably she does not know the song by Queen, nor Sammy, nor the Emerald Bar, but do you need an excuse to listen to it again? www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyd6OLyhPJo

The female Cardinal showed up at the feeders looking extra happy. Maybe it was because I'd just refilled all the feedersl

Her spunky little attitude makes me smile, so I'm hoping it'll do the same for you.
