[QUOTE="olroadbeech, post: 4156583, member: 52145"] At one time in the late 1980's they were considering triples in California along the middle I5 corridor. They opened a satelite center in Willows Cali ( where I started ) which was going to be a triples hub. All we had was an office trailer and a big yard and 17 feeder drivers. The company closed it around 1996-7 and tried to let us all go. the union saved all our jobs and we were scattered all over the place. Some went to Cordelia , some to Sacramento, some to Richmond Cali ,Roseburg OR , and a couple other places. I went to Cordelia for 3 years until i got a Hardship transfer to Sparks ,NV. They qualified me for triples by me building a triples set and taking them 7 miles up the freeway and back. We have triples runs from Sparks to Carlin, north of Winnemucca up at the Oregon border and layover run to Salt lake City. Fairly easy money . except when it snows and we had to drop rear trailer if chain control. [/QUOTE]
