English: Interior, side wall of the snow plough showing motors.... CPRSnow Plough 400657 which pushes snow from the railway tracks. They are pushed forward by the locomotive of the train. This plow was made in 1913 by CPR Angus Shops and was preserved in the Saskatchewan Railway Museum in 1995. The snow plow front blades can be raised and lowered. There are also wings to the side of the snow plow directing snow banks out and away from the train passing on the tracks. The snow plow flanger and foreman within all this blowing snow, had to be able to adjust wings and blades when there were obstacles to the side of the tracks or train crossings to go over. The spring 1996 edition of the Prairie Switcher the newsletter of the Saskatchewan Railroad Historical Society (editor P.J. Kennedy) tells of the experiences of Art Vessey. His father was plough and flanger foreman. Prairie snow ploughs have a roof overhang over the snow blades to help the snow plow flanger and foreman operate the snow plow with less obstructed visibility. Snow ploughs used in the mountains out west did not have an overhang.
