UP rotary power?
Author: Robert

Recently there was a good thread (and photography) about the UP's use of a rotary to clear the snow. Is this rotary wheel powered by a diesel engine? I know the classic rotaries were steam-driven, but that would seem to be outdated in our "modern" age. And incidentally, were the steam rotaries powered by piston engines or turbines? Many thanks for any information you can share!
