Steam trains and snow go together really well. I also like the windmill in this photo. Nice shot.
 
Don't forget this locomotive was a California landmark for many years; running as an ambassador after its backdating with a diamond stack on the San Francisco Peninsula with occasional excursions in the '60s with 'subs'. Originally built I believe for the fire train out of Roseville on Donner Pass...
