Was watching the local evening news from Albany NY. tonight. Thay had a segment on removing all the snow banks on city streets. There were a couple of 4yd+ loaders working, plus another one with a unique and very productive attachment on it. It was a hydraulic folding pusher box. The center section appeared to be about 8' wide, with heavy built wings about 8'long that could conceivably fold out to plow a 24' wide swath, straight out, or be closed in at any degree of to contain and push large amounts of snow to the edges of parking lots. In their vidio the operator was working in narrow streets and had the wings folded in a C shape. When he had sufficient snow coralled in it he closed the wings together tight and picked up the boom and moved over to a waiting dump truck, and opened the jaws and the snow fell into the truck, There wasn't any shaking of the bucket like usual and it appeared that he was handling 2-3 times more snow per cycle and no second and third trip to clean up the spoils that flow off the sides of normal buckets. Someone was using their head when they designed it. Only downfall I could see is that it is strictly a snow removal tool and probably pricy.
