C-1 Truck with Power Company Crew

Image

An International C-1 truck is parked along the side of a dirt road while men work on repairing damaged power poles. The original caption reads: "Nos. 109 and 110 photographs were made in the vicinity of Sumas, Washington, and show the C-1 just delivered to the Puget Sound Light and Power Company's branch in that territory. This unit was immediately pressed into service to assist in restoring light and power service that had been completely disrupted in the northern part of this state by one of the worst blizzards and silver thaws that had been experienced in many years."
