BillyT Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I've driven past the big Holstein,but forget where it is? Almost as cool as the big orange moose off 90/94 in Wisconsin, used to eat at that restaurant! The Kentucky club sign resembles the old mail pouch barn signs! FYI the same guy used to drive all over the country and paint those signs for Mail Pouch in Wheeling W va!

Vladislav Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I like two big Mack trucks no less than the holstein. Wonder what did they have as a tail?

Brocky Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Vlad Look to me like they are roll off dumpster trucks parked with the tilt hoist up. That looks like a roll of trailer next to them. 1 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/48273-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-357507 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underdog Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 They are tipper trucks. I had more pictures of those Macks somewhere, but they're similar to this- That looks like pennex aluminum in Wellsville, PA. Hauled many loads of skimmings out in my dump truck days.

Tough trucking across 22 in PA or I-68 take your pick, but I enjoyed it.

Vladislav Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Thanks for the explanations, guys. I remember we talked about that setup in the past. BTW pretty interesting style, nothing like that overhere to be seen.

Popular Post other dog Posted January 8, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2017 I saw a car in Chester, West Virginia. I put two puncture wounds in the side of the van when I was backing blindside through the gate. It was dark and raining, but that's no excuse- I usually back up a few feet at a time and get out and look, but this time I backed just a little too far and hit the gate hinge on the post. I saw some goal posts in Canton. Saw a lot of snow here yesterday... ...but I chained up and went to the beer store! 6 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted January 8, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2017 My Canadian assistant actually put the chains on for me- She's a tremendous help- she went out to see if the paper came just a few minutes ago- ...and she went over to start the bulldozer across the road so it could warm up! 3 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

BillyT Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 OD,looks like they're still using that Diamond Reo? Are they hauling containers of scrap metal with it? I hate to see it neglected cosmetically like that! I just enlarged the photo, and I realize what Brocky means by "tipper truck" It turns a dry van into a dump! That Giant was one of the last Diamond Reos made! Note the new style door handles on the white cab,which used the older doors originally with the handles by the window! Also the custom fabricated front bumper with the hitch. I've dropped trailers with sugar cane in the port of New Orleans and they backed a tipper tractor under it to dump it! That tipper had a pantograph looking linkage down in the frame at first glance looked like an ordinary tractor! The paper mills have a dump platform that you drop the trailer on, if you deliver bales of scrap paper. The most fascinating unloading situation I've ever seen is at Frito Lay in Binghamton Ny,where you park the whole rig on a dump platform with loads of potatoes they tie it down, and they tilt the whole rig to dump it! No end to innovation in our ever disappearing manufacturing sector! Sorry had to get that little dig in!
