Bay window enabled the operator to see ahead for flanger boards and other obstructions. The block heater plug were nice. Quite often they were temperature controlled and did not energize the circuit until the ambient temperature was somewhere below freezing. Other circuits were on a timing system, quite often 20 minutes on and 40 minutes off. The parking area and plugs for supervisors were energized all the time. Doug
