Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, February 20, 1985, page 5 Train plows by ANNE TODESCO This snowplow has a 5100 PI steam locomotive shoving it about. What the initials PI stand for are beyond my knowledge or if they should. be-in front or at the end of the numbers 5100. The picture was . taken just back of my home as it waited for the switch to be thrown. This took place during the time of the double tracks and a siding went through Rossport. The tracks were just finish- ed being plowed and the crew was ready to climb the grade to Selim and Schreiber. During the era of the steam locomotives, we saw the plows often, before the Deisels became popular. Everyone enjoyed -wat- ching the plow pushing away the snowdrifts and snow flying in all direc- tions. Now with the heavy deisels pulling the trains, we rearely see one of these plows. I asked a few railroaders for information on this lack of snowplows now. I'll try to-< get "the correct phraseology presented to me. It appears that the Deisels have some sort of a skirt and blowers on the front of the engine which can plow away the snow or through it. I am not too sure whether it is Peter Sparks on the plow as he often went out on it. The engineer was Mr. Nesbitt Sr., as I heard my husband addressing him as such. I cannot recall the names of the tailend crew. In writing a story about the snowplows, brought to mind a story of a snow- bound passenger train caught in a snow filled rock cut on the Soo Line of the CPR. My dad was the engineer on this particular train and Allan Fisher the fireman. I was a child when this happened but can remember the incident from dad relating the hap- pening. I cannot recall the 'exact location on the Sooline that it happened. The snow had to be remov- ed manually (men and shovels) till a plow could reach the train. So the train was. marooned for several hours.- The dining car became depleted of food. The engineer and fireman always carried large tin lunch pails -- enough food for at least 2 or 3 days. Dad and his fireman went through the day coach and counted the children, then shared their lunch with them. One incident thoroughly disgusted my father when some adults pleaded for some of the hot food. When thinking about that incident, I wonder if the adults in the hungry countries would grab food given to children. Just look at your TV for accounts of this starvation. Take another good look, don't you think that the adults look pretty fit? I do. It is only the children that are the emaciated ones. It makes a person wonder and makes one sick. In writing about the amount of food the train crews car- Mother's Kleiner & danish red cabbage by SANDRA SEBESTYEN Billie Jo Keating: cook .. ' of the week.

And do you know whatever food was left in the pail, we all had to have a share of it. We thought it was "Food from the Gods'" at least we en- joyed a bite or two or everything left. first, but now has learned to love it here. Married now with one wonderful daughter.
