sorry I have no idea. My Uncle drove truck from the late '70s until he passed away in 2015. I truly believe he took pics of every load he ever hauled! And most have nothing written on the back. He took beams into downtown NYC and Baltimore in the middle of the night quite often. He hauled beams to a bridge in Steubenville , Ohio near me next to the PRR bridge that G3750 is modeling.
Beware posting pics of your trucks. I joined in on one of those threads and posted pics of my 83 cabover Freightshaker... and soon the truck pics were deleted.
Enjoy the truck pics while you can!

yup...they'll be gone by morning
Yes we remember that day we’ll when I post my trucks I make sure it is train related anymore.
Good morning!
Motive power on the Dents Run Railroad:
When my Grandma and Grandpa married, Harry Whitcomb, the Engineer on the line, fired up this Heisler, coupled up a flat car with a table and chairs on it and transported the newlyweds down Dents Run and across the West Branch to the interchange with the Pennsy Low Grade where they boarded a train for (ultimately) Niagara Falls.
Dents Run RR crossing of the B&S (Buffalo and Susquehanna) and the bridge across the West Branch of Sinnemahoning Creek in order to interchange with the PRR Low Grade.
Passenger service was normally handled by this Brookville Locomotive Works doodlebug.

I am 99% confident that it's a port on the Yucatan Peninsula. Hidrosur is a Mexican company, if memory serves.

Sweet!!!
Wow. I knew a guy who hauled coal in a 26' dump trailer behind an H model. IIRC it had a Mack Quadraplex transmission. 4X4, two four speed boxes in a row so 16 gears. He said all you did all day was shift gears.

I will take your word. The wife said she was on a cruise to Mexico

Dad pulled a freight box in one of those before moving up to an F Model, then went to coal buckets. I remember him putting one arm thru the steering wheel and working both shifters. No air, no power steering, am radio,no air ride,had to read a road map, probably kill most of the guys driving today.

That’s the way it’s done dad taught me that if you ever get both sticks out of gear just pull off the road and start over

I like how the Hogger is leaning forward as if helping the 5632 along.
Lew
Brian, nice pic of some real railroad operations. The operator watching as that freight goes in the hole. I can almost hear the chant of that 567.

My first submission to this thread. A son congratulating his father upon retirement, both Frisco engineers. It is a bit of a shame the locomotive was not in Frisco paint. I worked with both of these wonderful guys.
