Case Histories - Powerful Partners in Storm Recovery: Bucket Trucks and Linemen One of the first things to happen during a storm is a loss of power and communications services. What does it take to restore these services? Bucket trucks and linemen. And lots of them. Bucket trucks and their operators are the lifeblood of emergency response teams in areas affected by storms. Arriving at their work stations at all hours and in all types of weather, these linemen are true heroes.
