    Probably why I didn't recognize you right away, thought you might of been dropping your stuff at home and loading up that way. Wish I was deadheading home, would be happy to haul your stuff that way, but I'm here till atleast Monday.

    I am in TX and deliver Monday. Then I am trying to load back to CA and maybe visit my mom over fourth of July. My booster needs needs to go back to the factory and trail king is expecting it to be in Denver by the 14/15th of July for pick up. I am trying to convince them just to pick it up in Phoenix but so far no word. I will be running eother on 7 or 9 until August, when they deliver the '\"new" booster back to me.

    A 6,000 lbs load of foam on a set of trains that took 4 hours to pickup... Don't ask, lol. image.jpg

    Second load of those same oversize units.

    My FIRST SOLO load. Yes, I'm that new. Happy to say not a #### strap loosened even a little. That's 67,800 lbs of concrete on a set of trains with spread axles. Yep, first load alone and I'm on a set of trains hahah.

    The trains didn't back themselves into this spot at the end of the day either... ;)

    No worries

    Trail King just built it wrong and it takes 8-10 weeks to get a new one built, but because I have disc brakes they need to transplant the axles from the one I have to the new one.

    They built the booster as a slider and the walking beam as a fixed 60/40 split - so the slider is useless and weighs an extra 2k or so
