Popular Post other dog Posted October 11, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted October 11, 2013 Vacation's over, back to the old grind this week. I did take some pictures of the old grind though.I had to pull this drop deck trailer to Erie, Pa. The kingpin is so far forward that the front of the 5th. wheel is even with the front of the trailer, and I had to slide the 5th. wheel as far back as it would go so I could turn without tearing my mudflaps off.Had to have a drop deck so I could go load a 1949 Ferguson tractor somewhere out in the middle of nowhere, near Pittsfield, Pa.I took rt. 8 down to rt. 6 in Pa....then I took rt. 27 down to this little road, had a 10 ton weight limit.then I turned on this dirt road...I didn't have to go too far to load the tractor, it was at the next house past the one in the picture, but I had to go 2 miles past there to get turned around and headed back out.I just backed the trailer in the ditch and the man drove it up his ramps from the side, and turned it after he got it up on the trailer.Then I had to go to Lane Steel in McKees Rocks and get a load of steel.At N.B.Handy in Lynchburg the next morning.Took the tractor to Amherst, Va. Unloaded at Elwood Mays' woodyard. He has a chip dump and they raised the dump up level with the trailer, backed the tractor onto the dump, then just lowered the dump and drove it off. I didn't take any pictures of that- I was busy.I did take one of this DM600 that brought a load of wood in while I was there.Then I went from Lynchburg to Warren, Ohio and back, reloading at the same place I delivered to in Warren. That's where I saw this unit hiding out-I also saw a Superliner dump truck.A wooden truck and tractor.and a ship sailing the sea.I even stopped and took some pictures of that truck i'd been trying to get a drive-by picture of.It has a "for sale" sign on it, but no phone number, and the doors were locked.Saw this unit sitting at Art Reed's place in Montvale. 6 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Green Dash Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Flatbedding is way more interesting than pulling a van. I'll bet the truck steered more easily when you werte hooked to that loaded stepdeck.I can't read the tractor number but that Pitt Sterling is a brother to mine. It has a DPF Detroit engine and was part of the final purchase of Sterlings. The isn't very many of those in the fleet.The clothes on the feed store girl seem to have some shrinkage. I'm experiencing the opposite at the moment. Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33111-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-211427 Share on other sites More sharing options...
