The Rock Island Snow Plow No. 95580 in Limon, Colorado is a railway snowplow which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018.[1]
It is termed a "Single-Track Wedge Plow". It was created as a snowplow by the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad in 1951, rebuilding from a retired steam locomotive tender. It was transferred to the Union Pacific Railway in 1981 and assigned to serve from Oakley, Kansas.[2]
In 2018 it is located at the Limon Heritage Museum, which is in the former Rock Island Depot, in Limon, Colorado.[3]
