Union Pacific Rotary Snow Plow

Based on the real life UP snow plow No. 900081 900081 was built in 1966 by the UP's own workshops in Omaha, Nebraska. She was retired in 1994 and is now on display at the Museum of Transportation in St. Louis, Missouri. In the museum the plow is sat next to another Union Pacific legend; Big Boy No. 4006 UP 900081 is notable as being the heaviest snow plow ever built. She weighs 367,400 lbs, which is equal to roughly 166 metric tonnes. Although the snow plow model in Rolling Line is steam, the real UP 900081 is not self-propelled. However, she does have a small diesel engine onboard for powering the enormous cutting wheel (though - thankfully - not the Cutting Crew, because I don't fancy dying in anyone's arms tonight).
