Thought I would share my recent score from Ebay. This is an old snowplow photo of what looks like a Best 60 and a wooden Sargent snowplow. Probably somewhere out on the east coast. One driver and an operator for each wing.

Nice rig. Thanks for sharing. You had to be tough to be standing on the platform in a snowstorm winching up the wing to miss a rural electrification pole in them days. If I remember right someone posted a video a while back of one operating and the wing man pulling like crazy on his chainfall to get the wing up in time.

Yes that is a "Cool" setup!
When I was a kid there was always an old slatboard plow sitting somewhere rotting into the bushes, generally the Owner had some story similar to the Video mentioned!

O-I-H, you are right about the video being posted recently!
Thankfully for those guys, roads weren't plowed everyday like they are now!
People weren't tied to their jobs and business generally shutdown for a day or two, not like todays Society where "We" run 24/7!
