Before the jet snow blower was in use (https://youtu.be/8AgfPXH0I2I), CN cleaned the snow from Rockingham Yard with either a plow or a Jordan Spreader pushed by a diesel locomotive. However this did not clean out the switches. On 4 February 2001 CN#137 had to wait while the conductor cleared the snow with a broom so that he could align the switch. #137 was pulled by Dash 9-44CWL 2509 LMSX Dash 8-40CW 720 & SD40u 6001 - great sound as they pass Rockingham station, Halifax NS
