      I don't think so--he was running from something. Watch him look back after he stops to see if it's still behind him. It's a huge energy drain to run through deep snow like that, and they don't do it unless they really have to. Whatever it was, I'm glad he got away--he was a gorgeous young buck!

    I'm Queensland born from Australia, and snow isn't something that occurs all that often up here, and if it does happen, it's not happening where I live, so I've never experienced it. Watching these videos gives me a sincere appreciation of the beauty of a snowy landscape. I do have a question though, does the Mississippi ever freeze over?

    • @randallellison6421
      @randallellison6421 7 місяців тому

      It could be something as simple as carbon deposits building up in the exhaust and burning as the locomotive accelerates. The worst case scenario is that it's a turbo failure, which if the diesel engine is not shut down, could cause catastrophic engine damage and failure and setting the locomotive on fire!
