Ah! So it's a hose for unloading like this?

[BK Vissers]

Yes, it has the same locking heads at each end. Good shot.

Thanks for the information! You learn something new everyday! The image is from here, by the way.

[BK Vissers]

Well done! Good search job.

Bonus shot for tonight:

Cavanagh Construction green Fleet



What’s that funny thing four trucks down the row? Come back here to find out!

Now, some heavy lifting!

Continuing from the last shot, some of the heavy movers in Cavanagh Construction's fleet:



2012 Peterbilt 389 Triaxle





Not even broken in yet, 2018 Kenworth T800 Triaxle





A Ford out of time and place!



Its more recent brother, a Ford fire engine



International 9900 Eagle





Peterbilt dump truck:



Yes, they do make them in Shiny...



Another International 9900, but the reason this one is interesting is what it has hitched to it...



Which is a Trout River Live Bottom trailer:



Here is the lift gate open, much like any dump trailer:



It has a giant rubber conveyor belt for a floor! But otherwise, it's a closed box, right?



Or is it? The tarp completely closes the trailer, and rolls out of the way for loading.



More to come...

Beautiful trucks, man! That moving floor trailer is cool to see!

[VictorSE]

That Cavanagh turquoise tho, beautiful

[J. Ritter]

That whole lineup is what dreams are made of.

So I mentioned how surprised I was at the International 9400i's relatively compact size compared to other trucks. Here you can see it and while one can argue the sleeper is not the same type as the 389's next to it, look at the hood, and fenders. It's all lower and smaller. Having said that, this is one of my favourite trucks.



International 9400i





1987 Freightliner (FLC?)



Wilson Livestock Trailer - don't let the shiny wheels and nice metal superstructure fool you. These babies stank!



The next sequence is of trucks that we are fairly familiar with but were customized in interesting or unusual ways, so I'm showing them even though technically, some are what we have in game or I showed before.

2003 Peterbilt 379 - the owner was friendly and chatted with me a bit. He said that he has another truck and that this one is mostly in the garage so it won't get dirty.



1990 Peterbilt 379 with custom sleeper





He's pulling a nicely customized trailer too - look at all those storage boxes!



This Kenworth was the most customized in the show. And I had to frame the shot to not show the 18+ text and images on some parts..





1986 Ford COE





International COE



This needs no explanation:





1984 Peterbilt 359 - getting some love from its owners





Freightliner COE:





Kenworth W900 (A?)



1989 Mack Superliner:







International Lonestar:



2002 Kenworth:

That International 9400i is pretty interesting. You're right about the size; it's incredibly compact compared to those other trucks. Is it a new relatively truck to the market, or has it been around for a while? I don't think I've ever seen ones of those before.

That Peterbilt 359 looks awesome as well!
