Too Much Snow for Helena's Power Switches - Winter 2017 Part 3

The weather records for January 31, 2017 show 4.40 inches of snow fell on that day with a total of 7 inches on the ground. 8255 W. has authority to leave Helena but the remote controlled power switches are not cooperating.

The train has passed the first troublesome switch as it crosses Roberts St.

West South Three should be indicating a yellow.

Gotta hit the ground again.


Meanwhile, the train is stretched out in the murk.

Success!

Underway, note that the signal does not show track occupancy, just the direction of throw.
