I read Dave's post a few days ago about getting ready for SNOW. It seams that it's on everyones mind. Our township has two of these Walters Snow Fighters. This one is a 1950 and the other is a 53. The latter got a dupont overhaul about a month ago. Haven't got a pic since. The town guys took this one out for a drive around the loop this morning. We have two older gents in town who plowed with these trucks when they were brand new. I'm guessing that one of them was training one of the new guys how to drive it as there was a lot of starting and stoping going on and a lot of double clutching, not always sucessful. The reason I know this is the big building in the background of the one pic is the town barn. Both these Walters are powered buy Herculese gas engines with straight pipes up out of the hood. One can hear them from quite a distance, especially on a crisp 0 morning. Our town does also have a fleet of Mack and Sterling single and tandem axle trucks with one ways and wings. The Walters come out when the snow banks get too high and can't be pushed back with the other trucks. I can remember back when they had a Lynn Plow truck which had tracks, with a bigger V plow and wings than this truck. I also noticed State DOT plow trucks out training/practicing, yesterday, So I guess winter is coming. I'll tell you how bad it will be in April

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
