Popular Post BKrois Posted March 11, 2013 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 11, 2013 Stockbridge Corp was working with Bond Brothers on an underground utility project in CT probably 5 years ago. This CL was at Gabrielli in Milford for some work. The R model with the asphalt heater body (photo from Truckpaper) would run down to the Bronx to grab asphalt for patching at the end of the day 3 Quote BryanMy Photo Albums Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29100-mass-construction-trucks/page/11/#findComment-171455 Share on other sites More sharing options...

2stacksuperdog Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Looks a lot different from the way i was told how they use to do it. My dad worked fro Hallamore when they built 691 in CT. They used 2 DM600s and 2 DM800s. The bridge beams were put on bolster plates on the fifth wheel and then on mini trailers in the back. They were very long beams too. One of the Dm800 blew a tire going up there and he had to use a lot of jacks to get it off the ground.
