When snow is too deep, the railroads call on their rotary. The precursor to the rotary snowplow was the wedge snowplow. Early rotaries had steam engines inside their car bodies to power the blades. Rotaries of newer construction are either diesel- or electric-powered. Many steam plows were converted to electricity
