PSNJ 5245 is a double-ended snow plow built in the company shops in 1921. It was used on PSNJ streetcar lines and in the Newark subway until retirement in the 1950's, after which it was stored for half a century, getting flooded up to the roof at least once. Branford acquired 5245 in 2007 and has cosmetically restored it.
