Good the Haitians are moving out, certainly a win for my state.

Nitpicking: Springfield is not known for building farm equipment. International Harvester, which is certainly known for farm equipment, built trucks there for decades. They are still cranking although under the restructured name of Navistar.

Got to tour the plant three years ago. They took on building GM 4500 units because they had some unused assembly line capacity.

The Buffalo-Springfield Roller Co. built steamrollers there. One such roller gave the 60’s band its name.
