CR 2001 with Jordan Spreader CR 64611 just did a small section at the very beginning of the old New Haven RR Armory branch in East Hartford, CT, then paused to fold up the wings, which this sequence will show. The date was March 29, 1985, and this was within walking distance from where I was living at the time. Location: E. Hartford, CT 3-29-85 Photo Online: May 5, 2006 |

The fifth, and final, photo of the sequence, with the wings completely folded up and just about ready to move on to the next area that needs attention. This spreader was working in the area for about a week and a half. Location: E. Hartford, CT 3-29-85 Photo Online: May 5, 2006 |

Some more shots of the Jordan Spreader CR 64611 and CR 2001. They are ditching the west side of the East Windsor Secondary
(former New Haven Armory Branch) in East Hartford, CT, on March 29, 1985. These first three shots show them actually making the ditching pass. Location: E. Hartford, CT 3-29-85 Photo Online: May 5, 2006 |

These are the final two shots that go with the three previous. Working at the same location on the East Windsor secondary, they make a second pass after ditching to "spread out" the berm left from the ditching pass, with the wing outstretched a little further. Also takes care of any brush encroaching on the ROW, too. Location: E. Hartford, CT 3-29-85 Photo Online: May 5, 2006 |

This is a 3 shot sequence taken on the CR Manchester (CT) secondary near Risley's crossing in Manchester. The first shot shows the spreader just coming to a halt with the blade still on the ground and dirt piled up in front of it. The next shows the blade lifting, and the last shot shows the blade folded up for the move over the crossing. Location: Manchester, CT 3-20-85 Photo Online: May 5, 2006 |
