Snow Eater

CP has an airplane jet engine mounted on a flat-bed truck as seen here. It is primarily used to thaw frozen switches in the winter time.
I suppose you could use it to power the truck down the road if the truck engine was out of commission!

The hot exhaust from the jet engine can be steered to a degree by the movable air funnel at the rear of the engine assembly.
I understand that If one is standing beside it one must wear double ear protection: plugs and ear muffs to protect your ears from the 140 db sound. If one only has ear plugs one can only come to within 100 feet of it as the noise level is already at 120 decibels at that point.

I need one to clear the snow off of my driveway!
