The prototype: Beilhack SBB snow blower

The Beilhack snow blower was procured by the Beilhack company from Rosenheim in 1980 to meet the increasing demand for snow clearing vehicles on the Gotthard. It replaced older rotary steam snow blowers and was also stationed in Göschenen and Erstfeld. Its design allows the entire vehicle bridge to rotate 180°, which means that the working direction can be changed flexibly. With its enormous snow clearing capacity, it is ideal for coping with extreme weather conditions in alpine regions.

Equipped with a modern sound decoder, the snow blower offers numerous digital functions that can be controlled via a corresponding digital controller. These include switchable tip lighting, driving noises, rotating shovel wheels and more. Note: In analog mode, these functions are only available to a limited extent.

Care and maintenance

Regular care of the moving parts such as the bucket wheels and turning mechanism is essential to ensure proper functioning. Dust and dirt should be carefully removed. Detailed maintenance instructions can be found in the enclosed operating instructions.
