Is White oak construction still around. They had some old orange B-61's, green B-61's and early DM's I think they mostlly did bridge work last I knew.

All the concrete products are abandoned at the plant. I think O&G bought some of their B models when they went out.

O&G does indeed have some White Oak/CT Sand & Stone B-models. I believe Manafort ended up with some of the equipment as well. There are some pics of their B-61s working on I-91 in Wethersfield in Edgar Browning's book "Roadbuilding Construction Equipment at Work: In the State of Connecticut." You can also enjoy a couple of their B's here...

I'll never forget the morning I was heading west on I-78 in Jersey headed to Pennsylvania, and saw about 10 of those brand new quad axle D' Adario trucks evidently coming from the Allentown or Macungie factory heading up to Bridgeport. I thought I was seeing things when I saw those aluminum bodies with "HI-HO" fabricated into the sides. They were delivering them to their new owners. That had to have been around 1990-' 91 era.

Still see a couple around...I think Ct. Mulch Distributors has one they painted white that's running around.
