Sewer Cleaner

Encountered returning from a trip to the Northampton dump (poetically enough :)  The truck was backing up in front of us, side lit by the sun (as was the windshield) and several cars were behind me.  Hence the rushed  image is less than ideal, but it does convey the complexity of the contraption (what must it cost!).  The manufacturer is Vactor, based in Illinois, and the truck is operated by the city of Northampton.
