Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad jet snow blowing machine. Hammond Indiana. Sunday, November 25th, 2012.

I took this photograph recently, in Hammond Indiana.

Parked on a siding near the steel mills in Hammond Indiana, is a specialized machine used in snow removal operations. This machine, is equipped with an old jet airplane engine for snow blowing operations, and is used primarilly for clearing track switches in industrial areas.

Hammond Indiana gets more than it's share of heavy lake effect snow during any given winter season.
