Where is everyone #5

Scouting the old Facebook. Saw this come up guys asking 7k. Dont plan on buying but the thought crossed my mind. Just how difficult would we be talking to throw an old engine in here like a mechanical cat or n14 or 60 series?

 

Question...... these were double stacked? Laying down or standing up? What kind and size spacing material used, wood 2x4's or?? Just trying to get a better mental picture. Sure do hate to see this, glad your ok as well as folks around you.

 

Freinds late model Cascadia yesterday in Ohio...... less than 500,000 miles is why he bought it. Heard from another freind he smelled something getting hot, pulled over and rolled the window down to find smoke in the sleeper. Got out and it was just minutes before it was to late.

 

Always been one of my worst fears right there.

 

I’m sitting at a park-and-ride waiting on a fellow from France to show up. He come over to see his son for Christmas, and was looking for to get a ride around in a large car from somebody. I’m that somebody. We’re going to take a brief tour up around southern mass and then to Rhode Island.

 

Thanks again guys. I really do appreciate the kind words.

The stuff was upright. 2 4x4 under the bottom stack and touching the deck in the center. The second stack was steel on steel.

I think the problem was it was 7” wide on the bottom and 3” wide on the top. The bottom still has almost a foot on both sides of open deck. So nowhere was it pulling strait down. It was like a pyramid.

It was loaded similar to this but only about 3’ wide on top instead of 7”. The load was not as long as these but same material.

 

Something like that i always strap bottom and top separately and pulling both ways

 

Morning everyone, getting ready to terrorize Louisville, Cincinnati, Dayton and Toledo today. Our mission, to make more enemies as we destroy their holiday travel schedule by being on the road the same time as they are.

 

And far be it from the great Catalina Flyer to NOT accomplish a mission....

 

Well that’s a cool deal. Nobody better than you to scare the crap outta......l mean....... to show the Frenchman around.
