The spreader was an invaluable maintenance asset both
summer and winter.
Plow Jordan Spreader X190 was acquired second-hand for $5,054 from
the Wisconsin & Michigan by the Green Bay Route about 1935 when the
GB&W began an expansion program and the W&M headed for
bankruptcy. The spreader was an invaluable maintenance asset both
summer and winter.
This photo of X190 was taken in the 1990s when the plow sported
a red cab. For most of its career it had a yellow cab, and it was
assigned to the KGB&W until 1969.
The lettering on the cab side is:
EXW 11-10 WITH S.P.
EW 11-4 WITHOUT S.P.
EH 14-9 OVER H.L.
