Randy Curlin General This is the big winter of 1982-83 which shut down Donner Pass several times. SP would reduce tonnage and lengths to minimize problems (no cut off helpers). Note the sidebanks. There is no more room for the snow to pushed to. They call this chute railroading which becomes dangerous when more storms arrive. 4/19/2024 10:36:09 PM
