This was a long time before the Alaska Pipeline. The gear used for the pipeline was a lot better equipped than these ancient trucks. These trucks had to be new in excellent condition to even perform at all in the arctic. Modern trucks need to be never shut off except to check the oil and then only briefly. If not let run would never start again. Also the new diesel trucks when -40° rolls in 1/4 of the diesel has to be gasoline to thin it out enough to get in the motor. Tricks of the trade and now they want to move offshore for the black gold out to sea where Mack Trucks cannot help. And pack ice becomes a major threat to any man-made construction whatsoever. How big do you have to build, to combat pack ice big is not enough. Gigantic and then you need to get the oil to shore liable at any time to be cut by the pack ice. How do you keep from breaking the lines? Well you do not you must at all times be able to halt the flow and keep the oil from the water. Otherwise all arctic wildlife will be extinct.

There was quite a bit of discussion on these engines and the contractor some time back in the steam community. As I recall, this happened in the mid 60s and the engines were rebuilt McKennas. The machines were beefed up and had a much increased boiler working pressure along with over bored cylinders and other beefed up running gear. The Contractor was Ottomeyer. This was the job these engines were prepared for and likely the last work they did before being retired and I believe one set of them are in the museum. A few years back one of those pictured was sold at Cheffins auction house in UK, a major auction house that specializes in high end collectables and steam engines. Don't know the disposition of it today, but it brought serious money at the time.

My grandfather was the foreman. He was only 30. I spent every summer with him in his 70s and 80s. He was born in the middle of no where Montana. His first 7 children were born in Alaska and the other 6 were born Montana. He operated a ranch in one of the harshest areas of Montana. He was quite, kind and patient with me. He taught me to shoot, to ride a horse and most importantly how to work hard. He had a bulldog tattoo on his shoulder. He also served in WW11 in the Maritime Service bringing supplies and troops to the Pacific Islands. He passed away at the age of 75. He had over 30 grandchildren and 5 great grand children when he passed. Thank you for sharing. Remarkable to think of what they accomplished!!

My dad helped on this job, he’s since passed away but this brought back some memories. He had been on the road for so long we waited on the side of the road when the load passed just so we could wave hi to him.

For few years, Mack worked with Saurer Switzerland, buying then the Saurer USA department. Saurer was also an amazing brand of quality, trucks from the '70 are still around working none too gently with the same pieces that they came out from factory. I'm glad that Mack is still around making quality machines at least.

I worked across from Vancouver Island in the 1970's at logging camps called Namu and Nikite where the smaller trucks like the Mac and Hayes HDX had 12' bunks and would hall 100 tons of woods - the Bigger Trucks P 16 and one camp had a Euclid 85 ton rock truck with 18' logging bunks - huge trucks 150 tons of wood coming out of the bush down hill at a 2-3 per cent grade - Every other truck would stay off the road at pull outs - all were in contact by 2 way radios as these Monsters could not stop - huge water tanks just to keep the brake drums cool - At the dry land sort the logs would be sorted and placed in 8' log bunks - strapped with steel wire and then pushed into the water for the boom boats to push over to the self loading log barges that would go to Asia - Trees like a 5' to 6' yellow cedar that were 40' + long the buyer would pay $8000 for this one log to be made into furniture in Japan - Now , the big trees are left and taken out with large Helicopters like the Sikorsky Sky Cranes - Coulsen Air Crane in Port Alberni also has the MARS WATER BOMBERS that hold around 6000+ gallons of water to dump on Forest Fires - I was a driller / blaster on the Tank Drills in the Good Old Days -

Had these trucks been powered by steam, they would have been the greatest workhorses the world had ever seen. Friend of mine perfected a steam unit the secret being controlled superheat and a very efficient engine. It was installed in an old Ford Falcon, taken to CA, demonstrated to politicians and vehicle builders successfully. It was the lowest emission engine in the world. They didn't want to know about it. I could be excused for believing the quest for clean air was a political hoax. .Govts. just kept changing the goal posts to suit the vehicle industry. Steamers can be thrown astern for braking and the more heat the better they like it.
