PO.297.0032 - Laconia. CM&PS RY. Rotary snow plow, Laconia, Snoqualmie Pass. The picture is of a large rotary snow plow mounted on the front of a steam locomotive. It is stopped in front of a large water tank used for filling the boilers of the locomotive. There are three men standing at the right and another man at the left. The snow is very deep with large banks along the side of the tracks. The tracks still have snow on them. Snow and clouds block all of the view of the mountains. Taken during the winter of 1912-13 and the rotary outfit is taking water at the Laconia tank. The blade is actually turning much slower than the image would suggest, due to the exposure time. In cold weather it was necessary to keep the wheel turning so that it wouldn't freeze up. If it did freeze, it was often necessary to build a fire below it to thaw it enough to get it in motion again. The mounds of snow to the right are railroad flat cars buried in snow. Further down are cabooses with four feet of snow on their roofs. Train crews (Conductors and brakemen) lived in their caboose while working here, The engine crew (Engineers and firemen) lived in a bunkhouse near the beanery (restaurant). -Allen Miller

This was taken, however, on a fairly clear day. The steam locomotive pulling the train is rounding a curve at Laconia, WA, Snoqualmie Pass. The snow is very deep; it has been plowed.
