Best Answer

The front scoop of a train is called a cowcatcher. It's used to push things off the tracks, like dead cows, fallen rocks and people tied to the tracks by villains in old Westerns.

Is there any difference between a bulldozer and a front end loader?

A bulldozer pushes things. A front-end loader can accomplish the same tasks as a bulldozer, just with less efficiency, i.e. it doesn't have as big of a scoop. A front-end loader can lift its scoop pretty high and dump it into a dump truck. The only big different is lifting dirt versus pushing it.
