@380kmh How much of an effect does snow have on a trains braking ability?
-
-
I see. How are the countermeasures for trains different than those for cars?
-
simpler--you pretty much just need a plow; brushes will do if accumulation isn't severe
-
Do they just attach plows to normal trains or are there separate trains designated for such things?
-
the latter, generally
-
How come? Seems far more expensive.
-
it takes a lot of snow for a plow to be necessary; some conventional trains have permanently built-in plows tho
-
with even more snow--still no plow needed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FzYW22ReBE …
