This second part is about the snow, so common during northwest winters. I like to railfan in the snow nearly as much as I like to railfan in the sunshine, and the combination of both is irresistable. Enjoy!

Don't get too excited yet Robby, it will probably be a couple years before I work up to a book. But the way you guys keep reminding me....

Anyways, here is the Z-CHCSSE caught up in it's own fury.
