And some stuff found while wandering around the yard at Gerhart's: Anyone care to guess what this is? Yes, it's construction related.

Thanks for the compliments, guys. PileDriving wrote:Great shots Andy, In the last shot, what crane is it??
Justin That's a good question. I want to say it's a Bucyrus Erie, if I remember correctly. RowanH wrote:Wow, great photos and great photography too, is the CAT a 350? Thanks for posting, got any more shots?
Rowan. Yep, it's a 350. And I do have some more that I will be posting later.

I'd say the unknown picture is the inside of a concrete truck.

Nice shots Andy, thanks for posting them. I think that this is possibly the Mack LR that you have in your photos. It is MARINO which is still partially visible on the door. Does anyone know how many of these trucks they had as this is not the former GEROSA truck. The photo is from the MARINO site.  Also, could the AUTOCAR shown possibly be a former GEROSA truck? This photo looks similar. Don't know author of it.  Robert

Nice pics Andy, the letourneau pull scraper is an ex James D Morrissey unit, nice find. Mr. Gerhart has some nice old iron.

Robert The LR at Gerhart's was not the ex Gerosa truck. This one is a 1957 LRVSW, one of (2) owned by Aycock, Inc. of Hummelstown, PA. It was on loan to Gerhart for the show. Aycock has (2) of these, and they were painted yellow and black before Aycock and Marino began a joint venture a few years ago. During that time, both of Aycock's LRs were painted red and black and lettered for Marino Crane. The Autocar DC200 is indeed the ex Gerosa truck. It was later operated by Wellington Service in Somerville, MA. Winzinger, Inc., of Hainesport, NJ, purchased it at the Wellington Auction and used it for moving one of their Northwest draglines. Roger Gerhart bought it from Winzinger. The truck had been for sale on E-bay a few years ago. John The Aut

Robert, that is the same Mack as you have pictured there. And as John mentioned, that one isn't the ex-Gerosa unit. I saw ex-Gerosa unit 6 weeks ago in the Marino yard in CT. The front tires are still stamped "GEROSA" on the side walls. They been recapped, but they're still the Gerosa tires. That one also has the exhaust at the rear passenger side of the cab, not through the hood.

Dump on the edges, the middle will take care of itself. Never look down on ANYONE! Unless it is to lift them up.
