macknutt Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 (edited) One of Chicago's oldest trucking companys went out of buisness 2 weeks ago. Brodreck Teaming was est. in 1890 and closed up after 119 years!!!In Macks book Driven For a Century, There is a photo of an EQ six wheeler owned by Brodreck Teaming. Last year on E-bay I bought a photo of a early AC Mack with a narrow cab for hauling over lenght steel, that was one of Brodrecks trucks parked in front of their old building on Sheilds ave drown the street from Sox park.Not many old companys left, end of an era!!!!!
