The United States Army Snow Plow No. SN-87 is a historic railroad snow plow, that is part of the collection of the Arkansas Railroad Museum in Pine Bluff, Arkansas.It is a 74,000-lb. wedge plow, mounted on a pair of trucks, built in 1953 by the O.F. Jordan Company of East Chicago, Indiana, under contract to the United States Army.
Snow plow blades are available in various sizes depending on a vehicle type. Service trucks usually use a blade sized 96 in (2.4 m) and more. Common blade size for pickup trucks and full size SUVs is 78–96 in (2.0–2.4 m). Smaller ATV snow plow blades are 48–78 in (1.2–2.0 m) wide. [citation needed]
In the case of a single-furrow plough there is one wheel at the front and handles at the rear for the ploughman to maneuver it. [24] The mouldboard plow leaves distinct furrows (trenches) across the field. When dragged through a field, the coulter cuts down into the soil and the share cuts horizontally from the previous furrow to the vertical cut.
The first snowplow model became available mid-2003 and featured a heated windshield and mirrors (and Mack's "Visibility" doors with peep windows), while the air cleaner was placed inside the hood to protect it from ice and snow. The plow/hitch carrier formed an extension of the front frame rails and was constructed from high-strength steel. [15]
The wedge plow or Bucker plow was first developed by railroad companies to clear snow in the American West. The wedge plow forces snow to the sides of the tracks and therefore requires a large amount of force due to the compression of snow. The wedge plow is still in use today in combination with the high-maintenance rotary snowplow.
