    Gravel likes to move, it's just getting it to go where you / bossman / equipment operator / foreman etc WANT it to go that is the trick. And you being the truck driver if anything goes wrong, even if you did everything right, it's still YOUR fault!

    Pulling trains is easy. You need to get a system and order figured out to hook and unhook. Then stick too it. This is the easiest way I have found to make sure you get all of the lines hooked and unhooked so you you don't have to call the boss and tell him you pulled your hydraulic line in two.
