Photo showing 7 international L-190 trucks, complete with Jaegar ReadyMix Concrete Machines, first installment of a large fleet at Kitimat. In early June, these were waiting for completion of batching plant installation. They were used to carry concrete directly to the new smelter, townsite or any construction in progress. Batch plant location is at Gravel Mountain.
