Good morning from Cape Cod ⛵ 45° this morning, unbelievably warm. The thing is if that was modern equipment your working on you'd be shit out of luck. At least you have the ability to modify your Cats and make them run more efficiently. It looks like we're going to be going out for an outing? Oh the train is ready 😀 Thanks guys for another great video ✌️🇺🇲🇨🇦
At a time I had 4 hunting dogs in the winter , I would go to the bead store . Thay have out dated bread , the lady would fill a big trash bag for me I'd ask for dark bread cost back then $1.00 . Happy me happy dogs . 😊
On Russian tanks they use sprockets riding on top of the tracks to push the compacted snow back out the chain, but you would need holes in the centre of the track pads. Oh well yours all run well in the snow. Happy new year to you both!! 🙂👍
the linn tractors and the muskeg buggie have those style of tracks. the cats had an option for factory pads with holes in them but most just torch cut holes. it has worked for over 80 years for the old timers and me thansk
Dually sounds great you should be proud. Wow a real Cat trains. You should put all the Cat trains video on a play list so people can watch them in future perpetuity .
Too warm here to make any decent winter road. Love the old iron working nice. No computers. I have a 55 Willys pickup with a Ramsey PTO driven winch, dump box, and the original Super Hurricane flathead 6 cylinder. Loved the snow truck!
Hi Joey and Xena.... Hooking up the sleighs reminded me of the chore of working with gang rollers on grassland...all the hooking up as a wide trio then unhooking to make single file for gateways and transport. Sure was a job and a half when by yourself.
Another superb snapshot of what life was like "back in the day!" Superb videos, brilliant content, always explaining things. Absolutely fantastic. Keep it up. I look forward to tomorrows adventure.... no dramas we hope ! I'd like to wish you a very happy and prosperous new year, when i hope your money tree turns into a forrest ! Happy new year to the Staff too. !! The beautiful and clever girl is a credit to you. !! Also, happy new year to you, Sir Rodney. ! The bestest parts place... (Jeremy Clarkson voice)... "in the world !" Best Regards, Dino
yes life back then was simpler and people were happier too. in todays new world not many people happy for some reason thank you happy new years too thansk
Yeah , it’s warm here.. was 8.C last night.. and heavy rain.. messed up my 12” snow packed driveway.. now it’s 1.3 .C tonight. Cooling off again.. back to the deep freeze.
Good evening from your friend in Destin Fl. We are headed out in the morning for the last day of red snapper season in the Gulf of Mexico tomorrow will be warm weather. Next week tho a winter blast from you way coming a low of 31 next week our yearly freeze. The plumbers will be busy in town. My son and will be enjoying a fire in the fire place. Keep the great videos coming.
Have you ever considered making a exterior boiler Then some large logs could go in and supplement the out buildings and maybe a rad and fan in the house so the manitoba hydro meter does not spin off it’s axis
I helped a guy build one. It just looked like a giant barrel stove made out of a steel tank , with a coil in side with a pump to circulate the antifreeze. Very simple we even put a bigger chimney to let it breath well. Last I heard he made another one to heat his shop in Yellowknife
Don't feel bad about Facebook, I was kicked off 6 years ago. Don't miss it, although I would like to have been given warning so I could have downloaded the photos I had stored there. Have a great day.
they started in the early 1940s with hauling fright to remote communities, drilling and exploration. then by the early 1970s, the Ice Road Truckers had taken over. thansk
When cat trains were the thing to get supplies to remote communities, How many people would actually be in that group. I'm curious because why would you need so many facilities? Like a kitchen, bunkhouse and blah blah blah for say a couple of people.
back in the day 2 cats = 4 operators (day and night) then the cook and brake man(piss boy) all rode in one caboose at the back of the cat train. thansk
@kingofobsolete4789 Thanks. I was really curious as to why so much resources were involved. Now they do it with one trucker and if he makes it great, if he doesn't, oh well. Poor guy just didn't have what it takes. Hmmmmm
Oh conductor King WHO⚡ Said there are no more trains in WHO-ville???? Not me!!!! King the low Liquor light ⚡🚨came on You have to be more careful!!!! Lol oh my!💪🍻! Oh! Lets go half track ww2 style on the snow truck put two peaky pooh holes on each knotty windows yes!!! Kelly hero's style!!! Polar vortex on way !!!! Cheers king 🍻 im dragging this on !!! Lol 😜
Hey obsolete maybe you’ll know what I’m talking about no one else lol the Canada border can understand you know on newer cars first before I asked you this you know what a threshold is on the door part you walk on OK so I imagine a threshold on the back door of a police car right so then there’s a metal area that protrudes upward and there’s a couple sheets of metal and this threshold that’s usually a plastic piece has these little clips slide down on that piece of protruding metal in the threshold slides down on that metal all the police use that bare metal to force my leg into and I heard a cracking noise and that’s why we need to sue the police for having that threshold and probably you’re the only one that knows about vehicles that knows what this threshold and how that could injure someoneProbably more confident in the prosecutor in the local sheriffs I don’t know anything about about it or is it because they’ll want me to be pushed on the threshold like they’re all on a team together to jam my leg on the threshold or do you think they want to get the guys to Jen my leg on the threshold because I can’t do anything I just sit here all the time and it’s in pain I stand up in my leg hurts to stand on I sit down it hurts over and over again I have no income so they should have to pay me so I can try to survive because this is car
@ OF me I only have $.75 in my bank I was just looking when you texted me I was going to go try to get a Heineken or some tall canna beer I have a dollar bill in my wallet I have a few quarters on my table my house is valued at $12,000 it’s like I’m living in 1800 upstate New York but there’s all these houses crammed in around everywhere
Pretty nice seeing all those sleighs pulling along. I read where sometimes the Cat Trains were 10 sleighs long and carried 80 tons.. That's getting the job done. Fine Business Mr. KoO. ben/ michigan
Love the snarl from the exhaust on Dually. That SOB growls when you slam the fuel to it .
it will only get better as we fine tune the motor thansk
I remember as a kid in the early 70s watching a TD 25 dozer build a soccer field, that is one awesome machine.

@kingofobsolete4789 I took a walk downtown to get a coffee this morning with Just a jean jacket on, unreal
Very smart staff, bread is actually great for the there fat and good supplements instead of straight dog food!

Yeah , it’s warm here.. was 8.C last night.. and heavy rain.. messed up my 12” snow packed driveway.. now it’s 1.3 .C tonight. Cooling off again.. back to the deep freeze.

Have you ever considered making a exterior boiler Then some large logs could go in and supplement the out buildings and maybe a rad and fan in the house so the manitoba hydro meter does not spin off it’s axis
they don't work up here with high and low pressure. everyone has tried and failed. pellet stoves are even worse. thansk
I helped a guy build one. It just looked like a giant barrel stove made out of a steel tank , with a coil in side with a pump to circulate the antifreeze. Very simple we even put a bigger chimney to let it breath well. Last I heard he made another one to heat his shop in Yellowknife
Looking good King Joey and Princess Xena 👸. Do you have any idea what kind of weight your pulling ?😮😊

I am wondering what years were these cat trains running? Were they running supplies for mining camps? And oil drilling camps?
they started in the early 1940s with hauling fright to remote communities, drilling and exploration. then by the early 1970s, the Ice Road Truckers had taken over. thansk
When you give dually full throttle it looks lean because the smoke is more blue and not black I could be wrong though
to lube up the injection system, we use a lot of 2 stroke oil in the diesel fuel. slowly both td-18 are getting better at running thansk
When cat trains were the thing to get supplies to remote communities, How many people would actually be in that group. I'm curious because why would you need so many facilities? Like a kitchen, bunkhouse and blah blah blah for say a couple of people.

I was wondering if you stretch the sleighs out with chains when you cross the lakes. Great video king
no, the sleighs work best on ice with long skis to spread the weight out. it is the cat that break through thansk
Pretty nice seeing all those sleighs pulling along. I read where sometimes the Cat Trains were 10 sleighs long and carried 80 tons.. That's getting the job done. Fine Business Mr. KoO. ben/ michigan
depends on where you life for the number of sleighs. here the D6 9U pulled 6 sleighs and the TD-18 were 7 sleighs at 10 tone payloads thansk
