    We do haul some corn to the ethanol plant which is used for ethanol, as well as distillers grains for livestock feed and corn oil for biodiesel, but most of our corn goes up into Canada to large feedlots.

    We could make some moonshine for you. :)

    Train axles. I never hauled just the axles, we hauled them with the wheels installed. I could haul 17, 75 ton axles or 15, 100 ton axles on a 48x102. About 45,000 either way. Use to haul the trucks ( axles, wheels, carriage, suspension, ) all together from Saltville, VA to Leetsdale, PA when I drove for Pop in the 80’s. 5 trucks was roughly 44,000 lbs if memory serves.....

    Would one of you kind and knowledgeable peeps be able to tell me about delivering feed to dairy barns?
    I look at jobs back home that I may end up doing when it's time to go home. Unfortunately I know almost nothing about the variety of driving jobs lol... I know there's oil and propane delivery and milk tankers and food service. And beer .... obviously lol. But I never knew about bringing feed to dairies. I like cows.... How is it as a job?

    Good job. Especially if you like being outdoors and rural areas.
