Train plows through huge snow drifts in Canada

LiveLeak description:

I'm not even sure how many locomotives this train had ...

Railfanning Post Blizzard of 2015 Storm #3.

Canadian National Railway locomotive 2304 (ES44DC) plows through huge snow drifts and gives me a big ass snow shower as it leads the daily CN manifest train 406 West (Moncton, NB to Saint John, NB) at Salisbury, New Brunswick.

I'm not sure how the train crew can even see with all that snow on the locomotive's nose!

Southern New Brunswick was hit with three major blizzards in less than a week, and there is more snow in the forecast.

Filmed at 3:05pm, Tuesday February 3, 2015 at mile 11 of the CN Sussex Subdivision.

Camera: Canon VIXIA HF R500

Wow! That was extremely cool. Especially the part where the loco was completely obscured by the cloud of snow it was making! Looked otherworldly.

it looks so soft with a fluffy mushroom of snow in front of it, I think I could stand out there and stop it with one hand raised
