A snowplow (also spelled snow plow, snowplough or snow plough, see miscellaneous spelling differences) is a vehicle, or a device intended for mounting on a vehicle, for removing snow and sometimes ice from outdoor surfaces, typically those serving transportation purposes. These are found all around us, but we sometimes forget how much these things help our everyday lives (minus you guys in the south).
Here is a collection of vehicles and devices that help get the job done.
The Train Snowplow
These things are crazy, I am pretty sure you don't want to be in front of one of these when they're doing there thing.
The Ship Icebreaker
A special purpose ship or boat designed to move and navigate through ice-covered waters. Although this article mainly discusses icebreaking ships, the term can refer to smaller vessels (e.g., icebreaking boats that were used on the Canals of Great Britain in the days of commercial carrying).
