Tried to put video in, but the file is too large. Here are a couple of still shots.

Watched it working its way south on Abendroth by the Willet House around noon today. Wanted to get up close to get a few shots, but the lunch crowd redirected me to Misti's on North Main. What kind of engine does it have?

Also, kudos to PoCho for doing a way better job of snow removal than NYC.

The Village of Port Chester has maintained a fleet of snow fighting equipment for many years now, These trucks do nothing but fight snow and ice and are all heavy duty and well taken care of by a crew of DPW workers. This 1980 Autocar is another example of longevity ! Driven now by EMTBRAVO member [Rescue40] it is the same truck that I drove back in the day!
