Prototype Vehicles

By far the most prolific vehicle seen at Hull-Oakes is the Gerlinger Straddle Carrier. The number on the side indicates there are at least 10 of them, and they all predate WWII.

Forklifts are used to move stacks and load trucks.

Here is a logging truck. They have a number of restored ones that they take to truck shows.

This massive monster is used to unload logging trucks and is parked next to the pond.

I've spotted this vintage Mac in a different location every time I've been to the mill. Bill Oakes told us it is used to spray the road in summer to keep the dust down.

This tracked vehicle looks like a skidder of some sort. You tell me!
