Also in the 70 I worked up at Fording coal. I did not drive there Haul trucks. I was a gear jammer liked the Hayes and Pacific trucks better.

Fording had a mix of WABCO and Unit Rig trucks I can not remember the size of the trucks but my pea brain seems to think they were over 100 ton and closer to 150. this would be a WABCO with the slope on hood above the rad.

Back in the 70's Kaiser had 2 35 ton Wabco trucks with water tanks on them for roads and water for the BE 60R drills For some reason I never took a picture of one usually I do if I run some equipment.
