just macks Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 God bless the USA. Wow! All those museum pieces still rolling.... Wow! Saved the video it is really an amazing display of heritage, those trucks should be on a federal protection program or maybe even on Unesco's list....

57 bcr Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Seen that at an ATHS chapter meeting in the mid '90's! I think the title was "The Moving of the Edaville Railroad" If I'm not mistaken.I think it was put out by the same outfit that did the ATCA show videos back then.Its a good one.Won an Oscar at my house!

nfreema5 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 saw this video on youtube a while back, filmed in Massachusetts in 1993. Hopefully all those trucks are still in the same condition; I know there's a lot of Mack enthusiasts out east, but hardly and here in Ohio Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/23473-parade-of-vintage-trucks-and-lowboys-moving-a-train/#findComment-104260 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCR Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Last October I had a Mack show at my house and there were several trucks from NE Ohio. Check on this forum under "Shows and Events" then "Mack Show October 29?" for info on this show. Under profile info I think everyone should post city along with state of location. Until I had my show I had no idea there were so many Mack enthusiasts in NE Ohio and Western PA. It would be great if there was a state by state listing of members in addition to the alphabetical listing so we could see who is near us. Barry, monitors, are you listening? I think this would make the Mack world a little smaller.

B66 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 The Green B-81 pulling the locomotive is actually a B-87 with supercharged cummins and now owned by John Haines, It was at one time owned by the Mahan Collection.

DigDug Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Great video , they must have had a large staging area to get all the trucks loaded . Must have taken a few days to load all the trailers . Nice to see them go all toghether. I have a friend who I think had a old Mack in that line up. My friends name is Jim Humphrey , and he and his father (George) restored Mack trucks in New Gloucester , Maine. Anyone here know them. Very smart guy , glad to have him as a friend.
