Wish my scanner worked ,I have the Transport Systems International catalog on all the heavy haul trailers Corbett , Mashburn ,Berry Contracting C&H and others !!! Missplaced my Hoffman Ad on the Talbert dolly system too. 250 ton to 800 ton trailers lots less money and weight than modular platform trailers of today which make anyone a heavy hauler , just buy more lines !!! Look at all the big hauls for power and oil companies our deep pockets pay for the moves with higher rates and oil prices . Never saw the old heavy haulers fall thru any bridges with 75000 lb axel loads on the old trailers too ??? Holland and Emmitt house dollys are light too like the transformer move a few months ago 4 dollys a transfer beam , drawbar and its moved !!! Using transfer girders builds up the weight quick the Savage Beams must be paid for by now !!!Cannot believe trasformer and vessel makers dont design transport into their pieces we have built connection links in bridge girders to use the piece as the trailer . Larry Sievers had a Commetto vessel trailer that WJ Caseybought that had 4 axel dolly with a 18" load height !! Thank you NJ money hungry NJDOT for changing our heavy haul system to generate more revenue , must have been paid off by consulting engineers and trailer manufactures to generate more money !!! Have a nice Sunday John !!!

Hi guys the Mack at Gerharts show last week was Aycocks , I thought it might be Gerosa's as it had Marino decals underneath but after looking at their website they had this a while with their Trabosa 12 line that mated to McHughs 12 line . Marino must have rented it ?? The Sievers / American Steel Erectors B-87 SX 8V-71 T Detroit , 15 speed Roadranger, 4 speed Spicer aux 80000 rear truck was sold to Mack Trailer with the 90 ton beam , wonder what happened to it ??? The Hoffman trailer had 2 Euc RX-105 tractors for it but it was never assembled . Hoffman had a Rodgers trailer that looked like Gerosas ? was there 2 trailers ?

The kit is a 1:87 M-75 kit. Ralph Ratcilffe sells them. Great kit.

He also sells an M-65.

I actually have that brochure. I revived this thread hoping to get more M-75 pictures where it is being used as a heavy haul tractor. Can't get enough pictures for detailing!
