A major storm hit the Midwest on Saturday February 23rd. The storm dump rain, ice, and snow, followed by high winds. The result left the westside of the state of Iowa in complete disarray. Railroads scrambled to keep lines opened and many were drifted in. The UP work a few Jordan Spreader jobs to get lines back open Tuesday. Here a Spreader works the Jewel Sub from Eagle Grove to Ames. I was highly disappointed they did alot of plowing overnight, which isn't normally common, but desperate times call for unusual things. Here the crew speeds up for "another big one" north of Gilbert.
