Our other special guest vehicle from @mta.info Bridges and Tunnels today at #BusFestival is the Vac Truck. It clears clogs and sucks away dirt and water.
Thank you to Kenny Griffo, Bridge and Tunnel Maintainer II, who shared with us about his experience operating the Vac Truck.
Today at #BusFestival, we welcome guest vehicles from @mta.info Bridges and Tunnels! This one is a very special and powerful “Wash Truck” that cleans tunnel walls and ceilings of dirt and vehicle emissions.
🧼 Thank you to Vincent Apromonte, Bridge and Tunnel Maintainer II, who told us all about it.
#BusFestival after the bus fans arrived:
The @nytransitmuseum.bsky.social #BusFestival is such a nice little event. I like that they also brought in other non-bus heavy equipment this year, like the tunnel scrubber.
