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!

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
