Caption: The infamous Salford Cut can teach you a valuable lesson - one of the most notorious spots for drifting on the Port Burwell sub located just north of the OSR Shops in the middle of a farmers field. Even though a train had been through this spot earlier for CAMI and the plow of the locomotive would cast some snow aside, the plows flange blades and wings heave considerable amounts of heavy wet snow nearly 30 feet into the air. Seconds later I was hit by two waves of snow as I bravely turned and ducked - the first wave - snow from the flanger blades, lifted from inches below the rails and thrown by momentum along the sleek plow curves - hit me like a thousand snowballs thrown in my direction. However, the second wave - from the mighty wings of the plow - each outstretched to their limit, flings snow forcefully to each side - this second wave hit me with a mighty wallop like two dozen wheelbarrows full of snow thrown at you. Gravity won this round and like so much snow before it, took me to the ground. Moments later I rose from the debris to watch the train finish the cut, and back up to take a second pass, to which I stood further back in awe of the mighty power that I had just witnessed.
