It reminded me of the 2 days of meetings I had there around 1990, at the Kraft General Foods Birds Eye plant. If my memory is correct, tthe engine facility was right behind the warehouse. On a couple of occasions when work got slow, I went out back and got a bunch of roster shots of those same units.
