  Did the rear pilot on these get the 'weed cutter' snow plow?

Looks like a weed cutter.

Last night I looked at what RRpicturearchives had to offer, and they had a one page listing of 49 locos, so I did a random look at about 20 of them.  Not many pictures of the rear pilot, but from what I seen, I didn't see any plow on the rear.

  That's the plow on the front pilot.  I am interested in the plow on the rear pilot(if it has one).  I have seem pictures of the rear of SD40-2's, and they have smaller 'weed cutter' plow.
