Welcome to the hopper thread and TTR, Mr. T

Find you a truck of your own yet?

 

Haven't found one of my own yet, looks like I'll be taking a job with a different hopper company until I can get leased on. Not sure how I feel about changing over to a w900 with a big cat, but I'm excited nonetheless

 

I just noticed in your post.....what forum are you on that you know me by that screen name? Lol

 

Welcome to the hopper thread, Norfolk. Great pictures. What brand trailers are those? They almost look like Cornhuskers, but the way the ends look square, not sloped, they aren't, are they? As for having to get used to a W9 with a big Cat, that would be pretty rough...


Where's Dairyman?? Our Hopper Thread Greeter is slacking in his duties.

 

They're western trailer units, built in boise Idaho.

Corn huskers don't seem to be super popular here in the west, most companies either run the westerns or wilsons. Western builds a couple varietys of these A-trains, the ones like mine with the square ends are called an ag train, the ones with the sloped ends are called a coal train.

 

Welcome to the hopper/dump thread,Northfork! Been enjoying your pics,keep 'em coming.

How's that for a proper greeting. The boss,(wheathauler) said he was revoking my membership if i did'nt get off my butt! How's it going RW,you still running the same lanes? I've been hauling wheat all week and my eyes are burning like crazy today,i don't know how WH does it all the time.
