Mackman1975 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Curious if anyone knew of a Mack truck built trailer(s) for sale. I saw a discussion from a man back in 2016 about a pair in PA. Would love to know if one is around to buy. Thank you 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74403-mack-built-trailers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarnall Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I know a guy in PA who had 2 really rough Mack trailers. I bet they are still there. there was just one listed with a spare Mack trailer axle in Facebook. Bet I can’t find the link though. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74403-mack-built-trailers/#findComment-556181 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackman1975 Posted July 31 Author Share Posted July 31 I believe you were the one who mentioned them years ago. Do you have a location or a contact for them? If so could you please email to me that info? Jay@siebertyachtmanagement.com i was in contact with the guy on FB but while I was figuring out shipping logistics, someone bought it. I attached a pic of my Grandfathers Mack Trailer. any info is very much appreciated. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74403-mack-built-trailers/#findComment-556182 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeH Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Here's a Gindy "Mack" trailer. Nose of the trailer says Mack Transportation Co, Phila. I don't think this is the trailer you're looking for.

mechohaulic Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I.d call it a gindy trailer with name Mack transportation on front being name of company. that's only based on an elderly person's opinion.

T-Mack1 Posted yesterday at 12:24 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:24 AM According to the Mack Museum, Mack made trailers from 1927 through 1944. A guy at work has his father's old title for one. The trailer is long gone. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74403-mack-built-trailers/#findComment-562390 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this is the trailer you're looking for. I remember MACK Transportation in Philly. Near the Port Richmond area but to the west of I-95. They had a big illuminated sign you could see from 95. A little off topic, but I think JC McHugh still has this Mack locomotive, I forget the story about them, I kind of remember Mack Truck bought them and repowered them and refurbished them at Allentown. I might be remembering wrong though Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74403-mack-built-trailers/#findComment-562548 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjc transport Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago about 10 years ago the Trap Rock quarry on rt29 in Lambertville NJ still had the Mack locomotive in use shuttling rail cars inside the quarry. when the quarry closed the railroad stopped maintaining the bridge over the canal, and last time i was up there 2 years ago the bridge had been removed. but i did not see if the locomotive was still inside the quarry. i just checked on google maps and do not see it or any of the stone stockpiles that used to be there. they also had a Cat D-8 locomotive in the Kingston quarry. but that has been gone for at least 20 years.
