Are Drom's Still Used In the Baking Business on the West Coast?

@JReding what type of brands do Franz have? We don't have them on the East Coast. The main Bakeries we have (besides Bimbo) are...

Scratch that, just checked out their website and it seems they have their own brands.

 

I just woke up from a nap, sorry I didn't get to you until now !

 

Not a drom, but an interesting Fageol monster, have a look at that super liner (photo below) down the page...http://www.curbsideclassic.com/blog...uper-freighter-the-definitive-50s-moving-van/

 

I always thought the bed buggers were who used them. I thought the crew used it as their space.

 

Franz Bakery out of Seattle is pretty much only using their long sets now, and they're pulled by two axle Pete's (367s, I think. I'm not a Peterbilt guy, I have no idea for sure).

 

Triples aren't legal in Washington state, but they may carry them in Oregon, as long as they don't go over the 105 foot maximum trailer length. It's possible they use the shorter trailers there, but I don't know. I haven't really paid attention lately what they're pulling down there.
