NIPSCO Truck on a Snowy Day, 1963

Here is NIPSCO's 1957 International Crew Truck #4083-2, ready to go to work on gas lines.

The truck for electrical work would be different.

It is pulling a compressor (#1031-2).

These photos were taken at the NIPSCO facility on the west side of S.R. 130, just south of Cleveland Avenue (±200 S. Hobart Road, where the school buses are kept now). In the background is the garage for service trucks.

The photos were developed in April of 1963, but I suspect they were taken before April. Then again, the weather does strange things sometimes.
