"...On the #7, the Queens Blvd portion should be higher risk than the Roosevelt av portion..."

Agreed. I got stuck on two separate occasions (in the 70s) on the hill between Rawson & Lowery sts. on a local that ran into a snowbank that covered the third rail. Lost power & all that goes with it (light & heat). After 2 hrs in the dark & cold & no communication (first occasion) we abandoned ship & walked on the snow covered catwalk to the Lowery St Sta. Folks in the first three cars were trapped a/c their barrel doors were frozen shut due to the high winds & blowing snow.

Second time, after waiting about an hour, we were able to get a push.
