Plowing snow in HO: the SP&WDE

Post by dudeface » Sat Nov 29, 2025 1:56 am

I set up this E-Z Track layout on the deck, which I have named the Screen Porch and West Deck Edge RR, because I want to use my HO scale snowplow... however, tomorrow we're expecting 6 to 10 inches of snow, so we'll see what we can do about that... :lol:

How'd you fare with the big storm? We got about five inches, and I don't think even my HO rotary snowplow could keep up with that!

It was hopeless! As soon as the track got ice on it, we had inconsistent continuity and no traction, even with 3 locomotives! :help:
