ebinmaine 75,839 #2 Posted 4 hours ago Very cool video. But I'm going to take a hard pass on any sort of snow removal on the steep side of a mountain. That job does in fact exist to some extent, not far from me. Jackson and Bartlett NH along with some surrounding towns have some extremely aggressive roads for short distances. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 10,648 #3 Posted 3 hours ago (edited) My FIL and I used to plow snow at several of the Mills by the Pawtuxet River years ago. One Mill in particular had a narrow wooden bridge spanning the River between the main building and the Heating Plant. That was a private service road; the bridge had NO railings and the Company insisted that ALL the snow be removed off the deck surface. It took all my attention watching the plow edge & the left front tire to do so. The bridge was 12 feet wide. I thought that was bad enough, the 10 wheeled Oil Tanker had to back-in over the bridge to unload the fuel!! There was no place there to turn around....

Most folks would be unpleasantly surprised how often us truckers have to do things like that... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
