Preceded by the rotary snow plow it

Leaving here the train encountered
all kinds of trouble, and the crew
worked all Of Tuesday night and yes,

pillow had three engines behind it, but

| and a train from the east is expected
| to arrive by six o'clock or later this
! evening. The east bound train from
DAoAanANn oAAAVOu III IAu43 VuOuudy DuL
got laid up at Wishek. The west
bound train from Hankinson got mixed
| with the snow banks between Lehr and
Kuhn the same day. There is not
very much more snow on the ground
now than before the storm that broke
Sunday night, but during the afternoon
4 Of Monday a. little sleet fell which
packed the snow to nearly Ice. The
500 has been working hard SO keep
trains moving but the Pollock train
and the two on this line all got laid up
4 at the same time and without the aid
Of rotary pillow it has been slow work
to get the track cleared. " 4 s .s.5 <
