since it was very close to the Interstate that runs the length of Vermont.

(50,313 posts)4. I don't know. I figured the NY trucks would be staying in NY and the MA trucks would be
staying in MA, so unless they were coming from the midwest somewhere it would make more sense for it to be the Canadians.

Could have been Hydro Quebec if they came down Vermont.
