Oh how I wish I was born in the 40s.....
Very true.Then you would wish you were born in the 30's. lol
Very true.
I'm just tired of grown "men" who are lazy, miss days because they are sick every other week, zero accountability for anything and don't strive to produce more than they did yesterday.
Ok, Rant over.
For now.
Golden Road possibly?
Northern maine I believe
I think that guy is out of fort Kent so I would guess that he’s probably hauling out of the allagash. Maybe the realty road.Golden Road possibly?
I'm with you on that one . When I was in the woods every bit of wire or rail road spike's (some of our haul roads were former Rail Grades)I seen was tossed away over the lower side of road . When I drove Gravel Truck in town , if I had any idle time , it was spent picking up nails or anything that could get in a tire . And some people actually questioned what I was doing . And I ended up with a fair supply of nail's and screw's . LOLThe days of going the extra mile have long been gone. I think of it as something as simple
as this, {you see a nail on the ground in front of you-are you going to pick it up? The tire
you save might be your own.

It is interesting all right, picking off rubber. I do it when moving in and out of jobs. It can get a little hairy!Now that is an interesting way to run around picking up small corners and ROW...
I would think they are picking up logs on the road side , lost off loaded trucks on way to dump .There may not be a brow log near the loading site to off load the log loader over the side of lowbed . And walking those old track machines any distance would be slow and costly . But I sit here and cringe thinking of the strain on the lowbed and truck suspension , that is a Washington TL15 and probably weights between 80-90 tons . If you have ever walked a log loader that big on to a drop center lowbed , when you hit center you feel it and when you swing around to have the boom and counter weight to line up with the lowbed , it tends to sway side to side . I suspect the operator is getting quite a ride .It is interesting all right, picking off rubber. I do it when moving in and out of jobs. It can get a little hairy!
