HeavyGunner Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 What a beast. I'm glad I don't pay for the rubber underneath that thing.

james j neiweem Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 That Hallamore M45 hauled a replacement main transformer from a barge up to the transformer pad at our CY Nuclear plant in the 1980,s. It had two M15 dump trucks up front as pullers to get it over grade. It was painted Hallamore colors back then. The dumps were owned by Butler out of Portland Ct.

HarryS Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 That truck pretty much dwarfs the Superliner in front of it. Great video. Also the next video of the 2017 show is great, what a facility. Sure wish I could have been there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackdaddy Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 This big boy is up for auction today! weighs in at 120,000lbs and 50ft long. V16 DD through planetary drives. To think Mack was still in the game in 1979 as it just seems like yesterday. Not the same anymore and that is for damn sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
