Dampfschneeschleuder Henschel im Eisenbahnmuseum Neustadt an der Weinstraße.

Diese 1942 von Henschel in Kassel gebaute Schneeschleuder hat einen stehend eingebauten Dampfkessel, der ausschließlich das Schleuderrad antreibt. Die Schneeschleuder wird mit angehängter Lokomotive (oder mehreren) gegen den Schnee gedrückt und ist in der Lage mehre Meter hohe Schneemassen aus dem Schienenbereich zu räumen. 

Henschel steam snow blower in the Neustadt an der Weinstraße Railway Museum.

This snow blower, built in 1942 by Henschel in Kassel, has a vertically mounted steam boiler that exclusively drives the blower wheel. The snow blower is pressed against the snow with a locomotive (or several) attached and is capable of clearing snow masses several metres high from the track area.

DFB Dampfschneeschleuder R12 im Frühlingsschnee 2021, Steam snow plough in the swiss mountains!

May 3, 2021 Die Dampfbahn Furka Bergstrecke testete Ihre Dampfschneeschleuder zum ersten Mal im harten Frühlingsschnee. Ich habe diese eindrücklichen Erlebnisse mit mehreren Kameras eingefangen und freue mich diese euch nun präsentieren zu dürfen. An dieser Stelle nochmals herzlichen Dank an alle Beteiligten.

Die Dampfbahn Furka Bergstrecke ist immer eine Reise wert!

English,

Today, the R12 is being tested for the first time under the toughest conditions.

Hard, frozen spring snow awaits the freshly restored machine.

Today's test run will show whether the R12 is up to these extreme conditions.

The second star of the day. The HG 4/4 will energetically assist the R12.

Test run of the servo motor for switching from twin to compound operation of the steam engine. The centrifugal machine is being warmed up. The "Moose" (Gm 4/4 71) brings the steam snow blower into position.

That was probably a bit too modest. The R12 can do more!

What conclusion does the crew draw from today's test run?

The R12 wins even against the hard spring snow.

However, this beautifully restored mashine is actually much too precious for that.

That's why it will probably be used for demonstrations with powder snow in the future.

The forces are very impressive. The 10mm steel plates are bent outwards.

A big thank you goes to...

Thank you for your interest!

---> Important comment on video,

   Christer Ståbis      2 months ago      What many seems to have missed is that this was an extreme test, in harsh conditions. (Thick and compact spring snow.) Many have not read (or understand) the description to this video. If you want to see what this machine is capable of, in normal conditions, you can watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PXcM8ZL7Ks Especially at the end you see that it cut through the ordinary winter snow just fine, even when it is uphill.
