    The CEO (possibly former) went to school in Dubuque. He has contributed a pile of money to his alma mater.

    Trains! 8,000lbs up into Northern Ontario. Being unloaded now, then I'll be grabbing a reload before heading back down to finish a late week.

    A better picture of that light load of foam (nose tarped, as requested).

    And my reload (OSB). I think that tarp job almost looks OK! What do you think?

    When you started you didn't wanna post your company name, I see you have changed your mind... So you must be liking the company... Great tarp job by the way looks good too me.... As long as the material is covered all is good...

    You sure do switch trailers a bit and I don't mean just from 1 flatbed to another I mean from flatbed to b-train to conestoga etc...... How do you like pulling the B-Trains?? Something I wanted to do but never got to and I believe I will be retiring at my current company so probably will never pull a set.. I did train on some before but that is as far as it got...

    Yeah, I decided it was taking too much time to edit each photo before posting. And no one else on the forum seems to hide theirs.

    And thanks!

    I do switch a lot, I might end up with a dedicated trailer at some point. The Conestoga loads I've done have just been pickup loaded with drywall, del and drop the empty trailer again so not much of those. I love the B-trains! I only have them now because they asked if I wanted this weekend load, exactly the same reason last time I had them a couple weeks ago. Dropping it loaded again because it's going into MI. That's the reason I don't get them more than that, I'm sure.

    Most of the time I'm pulling a 4 or 5 axle straight flatbed.

    I already know I'll be loading more concrete heading up to Thunder Bay on Monday. That'll be the fourth load I've taken to that job site, I don't mind that run. But it's also the last load going up I'm told.

    That has got to be fun pulling them hills on top of lake superior. That load just looks like an anchor.
