Cornstar and Larson uploaded at the same time. I'll go for Larson 👍 Take it easy everyone 😊 Watch Larson before Cole that's it

[@jzlharvey]

Is Cole selling some more dirt in a jar?

[@MrTonyharrell]

Yeah, the corn flake can wait. 😂

[@FFPM371]

Coles bin site just seems like a disaster. Always something wrong. Lowest bidder?

[@Thecowboy1950]

The corn stars just a joke anyway

[@brycelien1741]

Such hate, it’s a shame. Both incredible young farmers doing there best. Keep the negativity to your self gentleman. Any young farmer deserves nothing but respect.

[@jamescullen569]

Dougo’s statement about vehicles costing 10Xs more and you don’t get a second set is legendary. Funny and true. Shows his experience

[@cashishift]

Weird, my new GMC came with 2 sets of keys? Must be those poverty RAM's :)

[@Bsnowman22]

​@Zach Berger are you 12 years old 😂

[@pattipowell7788]

Great Video Guys!! Glad The Star TOBY is back where HE belongs!! Glad to see Mr.Dougo is doing well and has no complaints‼️ Blessings to everyone @ Larson Family Farm! (Way to go Mr. Dougo on that 🍩! I hope Mr. Larson wasn’t looking at all that tom foolery! 😂😂😂

[@lizzardnurphy]

Looked like Toby was having a blast.

[@nicfrieler1305]

Doors locking on their own?? Figured Grandma would have another set that era never threw out keys. Good seeing Toby again and expression on Dougo's face was priceless.

[@sophiesophie6958]

Hello dear how are you doing

[@marionberry6909]

Cracked me up when Chet faked Dougo about the dog pee on the floor and it was actually antifreeze.😂😂❤

[@waynewerner563]

Gotta love how you guys clean and maintain equipment the attention to details is incredible

You have to between the gumbo and the black dust.

[@charliesesna2045]

cause nobody wants to work on dirty equipment

[@bryanlee5090]

It’s almost embarrassing to see farm equipment cleaner than my Escalade. They detail the tractors and combines. Amazing!

[@bryanlee5090]

You can genuinely see the love that Dougo, Chet and Swede have for each other. That has to be a awesome place to call employment. I’d LOVE to visit that farm. Chet, how’s the new lady friend? Haven’t saw her in a while.

[@mandypaul7263]

Toby is looking good .. I still miss seeing your Niki chet. Such a massive loss for all of you .God bless you all. Toby! Keep dad young by getting into mischief.

[@ZakHesse]

Love these guys!…and Toby!

[@JDDupuy]

It must make you feel good everyday to wake up and work with a great group of guys who share the same passion as you. You guys are "America", hardworking professionals!

[@sophiesophie6958]

Hello dear, how are you doing

[@glennmoreside787]

I truly like you folks!!

[@bhain40]

Dougo- “Don’t ask mom.” Hahaha

[@richardmarcic2483]

How wonderful It is to see that floppy eared beagle!😊

[@rdyardie]

Your videos help me recall memories from my past. It concerns the antifreeze on the floor that you accused your dog of cranking his leg. Well, as a retired teacher of Horticulture, I had a small business in the Spring of power raking lawns. It made for a busy season. My cousin, whose father was a partner in the company that sold to CNH, was helping me out. It was good for him to learn that working up a sweat is good for you. He was driving a new Oldsmobile Cutlass. He called me over to see if he had brake fluid on one of his alloy wheels. I looked at it, dipped my finger in the fluid, and then I did the smell test. It was dog urine. Some dog had cranked his leg on the alloy wheel. My cousin always reminds me that I was his first "boss". By the way, when the company sold, that part of the family no longer had to "toil" like the rest of us. Your beloved dog reminded me of some neighborhood pet using the wheel of that Cutlass. 😂

[@bryanlee5090]

A common grain car for the railroad is approximately 80tons. I’ve had many grain trains as an engineer. Usually around 120 or so cars, at least 2 engines. Nowadays we have one in the middle and one on rear. Something about fuel conservation, idk!

[@phillipdickinson8557]

Chet Dougo Eric Broodie that was great lot of work done and grandpa truck fixed now engine running rough great video thank you for sharing and your time can't wait for next video.

[@kellybrady8548]

Oh my. Brody, I just had that happen last night. My bf and I stopped at a McDonalds in Cambridge MN. And got home 2 our of 4 cheeseburgers didn't have the so called meat on them. They had everything else. How hard is it to not check for the burger on a sandwich. They want more money to work there.

[@robertreznik9330]

There is a lot of corn coming southwest into the Texas Panhandle each day by the 100 car unit trains, over 500 truck loads per unit. Wonder if your corn is moving to TX. About 30 years ago this became the beef feeding capital now dairy has been moving in. There is a pork plant at Guymond that processes 7500 Chinese owned pigs a day. The counties along the NM TX line already produce more milk than the state of NY. Last week I found out they will build three more 10,000 milk cow barns Between Dumas and Dalhart. The milk will have pipe lines to supply the nearby new Faria cheese factory. The COOP I deliver to is SkyLand Grain That has 165 million bu storage. "Ag is changing" is an under statement.

[@robertreznik9330]

@George Smithfield meats produces 16 million pigs annually ! Not everything but alot out of the 60 million.

[@rosemarymurphy5767]

Chet , Toby keeps you going and entertaining so cute.

[@bezonidude1969]

Larson farms before Cornstar farms any day!

[@stevenicoson6670]

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. Busy busy time for all of you and hauling corn besides. With three trucks going you pushed a lot of corn. Lots of equipment maintenance going on now. And now planter time. Spring is coming around the corner. Good to see Toby again. He is a good dog. Had to laugh at Dougo when you said he peed on the floor. Good thing you told him it was antifreeze. Oh my. About it I guess. Thanks for everything Chet. Take care and be safe. The Iowa Farm Boy.

[@sallydunbar1683]

Always look forward to your comments, Mr Nicosen.

[@mikeevans1751]

A job well done , Trucker Chet!

[@sallydunbar1683]

Great seeing Toby! How hard is it for people to give Chet a 👍 & SUBSCRIBE? Larson gives great content 3 x/week. We need to help grow his channel.💚

You bet & always let the ads play...

He needs to let us all meet JeanMarie?

[@letzrockitrite8469]

Back in the day when I worked for Pepsi as a loader .... we were racing to unload the transport (triple trailer) in a hurry so we could get back to loading the delivery trucks, we'd drive from the big yard through the breezeway to the back yard and into the BIG STORAGE BLDG. ... I set the pallet on the 3rd row high and decided to drive backwards at full speed out the big door ... through the breezeway to get another pallet off the transport ONLY TO FIND OUT that when going backwards on a forklift at full speed, the forks don't go down very fast but you know what happens very fast.... your fork mast rips into the breezeway roof about 6 feet worth and you can actually fly a forklift onto a pallet of grape soda .... they loved me that day... I learned a lesson that day .... let the forks down before booking through the compound .... thanks Chet/Eric/Brody/Doug

[@steveneal2706]

Awesome video Chet. Thank you guys

[@colterlenz670]

[@olnamgrunt9857]

DOUGO, my hero, feeding chickens, stay safe folks lol

[@katherinekinnaird4408]

You all work well together. And the banter is therapeutic 😁 . I feel for Dougo. My late husband was a Locksmith. We had repeat customers. No worries folks.

[@bradpogue3448]

Toby was having a lot of fun running away from you, that was cool. Yep it. Is getting close to planting season. Can’t wait for that

[@05Petedriver]

I agree with the closing tarp. I only run it open for a mile or less to blow out dust occasionally, then roll it. I've had it pull harder empty on a windy day opened up then it pulled loaded with 1000 bushels of grain.

[@danielparks3070]

Gotta get a jib for the forklift. Handy thing fits on the skid loader too

[@lstone.09]

Awesome video guys. It's always great seeing Sir Toby running and playing. Eric, nothing personal but that guy is always sick. Either physically sick or doing something sick. LOL But overall he's still a great guy. Was great seeing Brody and DougO' working as well. 🚜🚜🚜

[@felixolauzzon]

Man I love you guys trucks! Got to know the specs on ALL of 'em!

[@acehole265]

For someone who keeps trucks clean like y’all, you need to look at getting some chemX snake oil. You’ll be able to just pressure wash that salty road grime right off!

[@robertwilliamsjr.9195]

trucking like you guys do is easy...farming is the upgrade...

[@paulprigge1209]

We unload trucks to the bins and then to the barges on the Mississippi.

[@dhenschel4]

Thanks for the trip with the grain, no one has ever done that or had all the information you relayed. I did check - train car typically can carry 3,333 bushels, truck trailer typically can carry 950 bushels, so train car can carry 3.5 x a truck trailer.

[@jarred267]

3300 bushel would be an over weight car. Max car weight on the rail road by law is 226,000. A super jumbo hopper has a tare of about 60,000#. At 56#/bushel thats 2965 bushel max capacity. Thats also figuring an exactly perfect test weight at exactly 15.5% moisture. Going off Timpte's books a 50ft tri axle super hopper 72" wall with heaped corn is 1750 cubic ft @ 45# per cube. 78,750# max load on the trailer. Which makes since with his 95,000# scale in weight. So 2 and a bit trailers per train car max. Larsons run bigger trailers than most farms though, due to the local weight limits.

[@lynwessel2471]

@@jarred267 Jumbo hopper cars haul 3800 bu. of corn, standard are 3300. Truck gross 95700 - tare 29420= 66280 net ÷ 56 = 1184 bu. Minnesota winter overweight permits are 88,000 for standard grain semi and 99,000 for tri-ax tractor and trailer.( Not allowed on interstate highway.) If caught over weight you're fined for every pound down to summer weight.

[@dhenschel4]

@@jarred267 Thanks for the info - I didn't take weight into consideration - so they have to underfill the train cars or they would be overweight?

[@lynwessel2471]

Toby is getting chubby! You need to bring him for walkies !!! Great to see the road trip to the grain depot !! We don't get off the farm enough! It would be great if you could find out where your corn winds up and what it is used for?????? It would make a great video if you get them to answer these questions?? As always JUST FANTASTIC!!!

You should clean up any antifreeze with your dog around, it's sweet & the dog will lick it up.

I pulled many of these loaded unit trains in my RR career. Avg rail car length is 60', weigh in 128 to 135 tons each, depending on the size the car. The newer "J's" hi-caps, are 58' and hold 136 ton but cannot be loaded over 130 tons on some branch lines due to different factors, rail size, tie conditions, bridges etc. We combo'd two unit trains (one time) for a total of 210 loads, 27300 tons, 4 AC 4400's @ 17600 HP, distributed power. Across the flatlands of ND this train ran like a dream.

The 4L80 transmissions in that generation of GM trucks were highly problematic. I remember we had a fleet of 91 GMC trucks and everyone had at least 1 trans replacement and some multiple.
