hicrop10 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Hell in Philly thats not considered a problem.One of our triaxles took the whole damm sign down,on rt 1 one night.I walked a Cat D8 up the road about 5 miles from the yard and pushed it off too the side of the roadway and then came back to the yard with it and no one was the wiser. .We reported it to Penndot and if I remember right that was all that came of it.

xdudebrahx Posted January 26, 2014 Author Share Posted January 26, 2014 By the time I drove home from my shift, the sign was fixed.We had a guy peel the body canopy back a few years ago on a bridge. Bridge was fine and they sent the truck to Triad to get a new canopy put on the body.

xdudebrahx Posted January 26, 2014 Author Share Posted January 26, 2014 We have a few trucks with the straight type plows, but since we're all on a PennDot contract, they get sent out to have them set at the angle they want.

RFCDrum Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Jersey gives us all straight plows manually set on an angle and the last truck gets the big funnel plow for cleanup and shooting over the shoulder.

hicrop10 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 xdudebrahx,that old r model water truck you have looks like one of our old fuel trucks.I saw it to a fellow from Newark he also took the 3 r model dumps we had.Where is that water truck kept at.

philatruck Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Mike D that water truck is kept at SJA's main plant, off of S 26th street, down from D'Angelo's yard. Also visible from the Giriad Pointe Bridge.

hicrop10 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 That has to be our old fuel truck.That was the only tanker that had the ladder going up the front of the tank.It was a real pain in the ass to climb up.If I remember it was a 1967 model,the tank had 2 compartments.The front one hold 300 gal of gas,rear tank had 3000 gals.When I sold it,it was in better shape rust wise then the 1979 r models we had.

xdudebrahx Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Growing up, I remember that truck sitting in Anderson's main yard on Allegheny with a dump body on the back. It had that tank put on it maybe 5 years ago.

xdudebrahx Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 He has a little kenworth and an F450 box truck done the same way. I gotta say I'm a fan of a more classic look on an R model.Edit: just noticed the dual breathers. Wonder what it has for power? Could be why it has a hood scoop?

xdudebrahx Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 Why not embarass myself with some childhood pics hanging out with old Anderson stuff. I think i was maybe 9 or 10. I wish their trucks were still pinstriped like that Superliner though. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27737-the-philly-construction-thread/page/17/#findComment-240480 Share on other sites More sharing options...
philatruck Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Like the vintage Anderson Pics, do they still have the Superliner, I know they have a Superliner, but I don't know if it is the same truck or not? Now that springs here maybe I can get some nice truck pics. JDM also got a new Mack GU813 Fuel Truck, Green cab, and aluminum fuel tank.
