Boulder train is a series of erratics usually derived from the same bedrock, carried forward by the moving ice and deposited either in a fan pattern with the apex pointing to the origin of the material or in a linear pattern.
Terminal moraine is a long ridge of moraine running across a landscape formed at the ice front.
Drumlins are smooth elongated hummocks of boulder clay with long axes parallel to the direction of the moving ice sheet responsible for the deposits.
