Big Loads - Post Photos Number 2

Under secured.......

 

I wonder if anyone here can ID this, posted elsewhere with no info and no-one knows what, where or when about it.

 

Great video, that Mammoet get everywhere, they took over the company I used to work for in the UK years ago

 

"The largest Macks ever built were a trio of M100SXs. As far as I know, all 3 were built as dump trucks from the factory. The only one I know anything about was the M100SX that was owned by Hoffman International of Belleville, NJ. This truck was built as a dump truck, but was sold to Hoffman and convereted to a heavy haul prime mover and used with a modular 600-800 ton Talbert modular, multi-axle trailer. I know it was a dump truck originally because Hoffman had the dump body sitting in their yard in Piscataway and when the truck was listed "for sale", the body was listed in the add. I don't know if the truck was ever actually used as a dump truck or if Hoffman purchased before it went into service as such.

Here i a link to Hoffman Equipment's history page. For some reason, I cannot view the pics from their page but there are several pics of the truck on there: http://www.hoffmanequip.com/history.htm

The M100SX from Hoffman was sold to Mashburn of Texas sometime in the late 1980s/early 1990s. The truck was auctioned off by Mashburn after they sold out to Lonestar Transportation in the mid to late 1990s and was purchased by Pile & Foundation Construction of Hicksville, NY, for moving test weights at Kennedy Airport in Queens, NY. The truck currently resides in Queens, though its future is quite uncertain.

The 600-800 ton Talbert that Hoffman owned is now owned by Allen's Towing in Illinois. There have been quite a few pics of it posted on the net. I am pretty sure the trailer has not been used since it last flew the Hoffman flag here in NJ." Taken from bigmacktrucks.com
The trailer could still be sitting in the weeds @Allen's in Hampshire. Haven't been nosey in the past 5 yrs.

 

The one in queens got sold and moved recently, idk what the plans for it are.

 

this may give you some more information

 

Thanks mate, brilliant detective work, and an interesting video which I will now go to post where it will be appreciated, back in Blighty.

 

The man who posted the big Mack, appreciated the video explanation and returns this to this forum, proving that you don't always need lots of wheels, sometimes just lots of space. These 2 are in the UK I think, judging by which side of the road they are parked up on.

The caption with this is:
Just got a load of stone to fill a few potholes in me drive, it is 5.7 miles long
But I reckon someone is more skilled with a computer than a truck.
