    Gonna have to show this one to dad, he was hauling coal in the 80s and 90s, although he was driving triaxles. Different time back then he said they all carried guns with them because there was always something going on, Union on strike looking to block off the trucks, or someone mad about “their” road getting torn up.

      read into Appalachia history as a river critter myself. it truly is sad what the corps did to our land, people, health here. All while the government actively encouraged the corps to crush us under their heels. We remember that the police are there more to control than to help under this current system.

    I worked for Halliburton in Pennsylvania MN drove a lot in WV. Them roads were narrow n windy n hilly. Didn't enjoy driving in WV. Could not make any time with being heavy most times. Enjoyed driving in Ohio though. Mainly flat. Course Kentucky wasn't much better than WV. Keep er between the ditches.
