The snow fighting composition of the Gornergrat Bahn (GGB) is stabled in the stub track at Riffelberg station. The overhead wire is shut down and grounded. Over a ladder, two railway workers climbed on the roof of snow blower X rote # 3932 and railcar Bhe 4/4 # 3062, to throw the snow down. They are secured from falling down by a safety rope, attached to a thin wire rope.
