On the old trailers springs held the brakes open and the air closed them to stop the trailer. Today the air holds the brakes open and when you push the brakes in the air exhausts and the springs close the brakes this way when no air is to the trailer the spring brakes work and the trailer won't roll away.

guess we need a new topic. Let's see........... who remember's the old evergreen oc?

sometimes i'm amazed at the junk they have for trailers still in service. I pulled a few that the rear panels were so rusted out the tail lights were just hanging on a wing and a prayer.

ive only ever been to indy and dallas. oh ya, the one out in ontario ca too

how long you been a pumpkin ? i really like the fontana oc and west memphis.

since May. I'm not a company kind of guy I try to stay out of them and stay on my own untill I run out of paperwork. I used to fuel at dallas but I was plugging up fuel filters every week and I think I have black algea in my tanks now from them so I don't fuel there any more if I can help it.

never been to west memphis, I don't even know where most the oc's are. but i've heard it's a good one

Lets see the oc's are as follows and i'll probably miss some. Charlotte, Atlanta, West Memphis, Dallas, Laredo, Fontana, Indianapolis, Carlisle, Gary, Green Bay, French Camp, Portland There's a couple more but i can't remember. they've shut down a few over the years. any one else know of any more please list them.
