Description:  Cropped view of the previous image to get a better/closer look. As of 3-18-2011 this unit is still in green and white paint, with the white stripes on the nose and white paint on the front of the cab. Is the sand filler hatch on the nose open? And the crew are wearing orange reflective vests but I saw those as I was heading to find a parking place!
