My uncle identified these photos as having been taken on one of my grandfather's jobs in Adams, NY in 1940.  They appear to involve the construction of an underpass.  I tried to put these in some sort of chronological order, but I'm just guessing as I have no idea what order they are supposed to go in.

•    Two photos of a steam crane with a clamshell attachment with what looks like piles of gravel.

•  A steam shovel and a bulldozer digging through a street.  I had to rotate this photo a bit lest the equipment slide off the edge of the Earth.  ;-)

•  A bulldozer that has fallen into a ditch.  In the right background, there appears to be a freight railroad station with a Pennsylvania Railroad boxcar in front of it.  This one also had to be rotated slightly to get it level.

•  An old truck and a steamshovel digging out a road.  It looks as though there may be snow on the ground and the truck, but it's hard to be certain.

•  A steam crane in the underpass.
