Is that Tooker Gomberg huddled on top of that Vessel?

Apparently Mammoet has got a big load going next week, and we have a 3 file Goldhoffer loading to head north as well.

Yup I gotta go up again this week to pick up the unit I dropped off will probly head up after work at night to miss the traffic.
How much farther is it down 881 than 63 coming from the west

Ya it seems like everyone is in a big hurry these days. I even avoid hi way 2 if I can. I would rather look at fields or combines than some jerk off doing 140

If you are going to mc murray its 2 hours farther via 881 and that highway is just as busy

It's not 2 hrs more. From the hwy 55/ 63 junction to go north on 63 is 244km,to go west to lac la bische is 40-45km , then onto 881 is 290km , so it's 330-340 once you add in going through town compared to 244. And it's volume is picking up from the past but still don't rival 63. I've been running these roads for the past 7 yrs . Time to stop now though, to many idiots on the roads . Think they are exempt from speed limits and on coming traffic. That 100 km difference can be minimal when 63 is shut down for hours due to an accident. Or snail paced for this move. Just check the big sign on the road that says if they r open or closed .

Hwy 881 is a busy place nowadays. All these coring/sagd projects ramping, its a mini 63. No passing lanes requires one to be patient.

There was a couple of big loads parked at the La Biche scales last night coming home from Conklin. Be a nightmare meething those loads in the day with the skinny shoulders on that Hwy
