RIG MOVIN LODGEPOLE TO TRIPLE E ROAD

[@garyoliver9987]

Great video! Its good to see people helping each other like with your winch line years ago you were on your own there could be 20 guys standing around watching you struggle with the line and then scream at you for taking so long. until next time take care stay safe.

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

yes i bet help was far and few, i would have been ready but i was told i was getting pipe, lots of time what your down for never happens so your never prepared

[@johnberry1107]

Good content! This perspective is different than that of a local trying to use a gravel road like they used to before energy showed up. Stay safe. Be loud.

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

Absolutely!

[@oldshep2695]

Now thats what you call a good days work 🥵...Hey at least it wernt snowin 🥶..as for the amount of gear on them rigs , phew. Over here in parts o the UK we got a few inches o snow an the place comes to a parkin lot !!! Thanks for the vid n time to make it..

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

you bet, thanks and also thanks for watching, we have a ton of canadians that have to re learn how to drive every winter

[@nickmorrell1984]

It's funny how small the patch is lol. My first job was swapping for calnash, and now I supervise at calfrac and am working on that exact location today! Plus I've popped up in the background of a few of your videos lol.

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

its always cool to have a pop in eh, i watch other stuff im looking if thats my truck in the background. you've kept it white and green start to finish👍

[@ROAMinstuie420]

I dont ever travel buster creek road in the winter but i reconized that hill immediately.

[@paulramsey8187]

So thats how an oilfield trailer is unloaded. Im in california. Never seen them loaded-unloded before. Thanks for that.

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

you bet, no problem

@@TimelapseTruckerRTOT Trucker. May i ask where you grew up? I am trying to place your accent. I hope you do not mind the question.....

[@robbarr88]

Another cool video, I'm on that location right now doing wireline runs with the crane.

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

how was the pull up the hill? i was out west of caroline one time at roadtrain and had to chauffeur the crane into location. was a crazy steep hill and he wanted me to tie onto him and help out, buddy if you go backwards your taking me with you, i opted out of that one, he made it but he chained up, i never seen a 8x8 chained up. im sure a wire line truck would make them hills with all that weight you guys pack around

[@jimshowalter9522]

Thanks for another great vid!!

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

You bet!

Another awesome video!!!👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

Thanks again!

[@caterpillarslim1288]

HOTDOG! You got all sorts of cool trucks in this video C500s, T800s, a few of Petes, and Western Stars. That big ol stank nasty Western Star bed truck 😍, was it 8x8? And at 32:24 is that a God dam? Awesome video man, thanks for sharing these!

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

im sure thats a 8x8 yes, i see axles in the video i had to go back and look twice, used to be a howards transport truck and was brown . i just found this out today via my facebook group as i posted a wicked photo of it with a sub on as a brown truck, and clearly see its 8x8

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

i think the floater is also 8x8

[@dirtydeanis4428]

You or your boss need to ask them if they are adjusting the brakes to have 1 1/2 inch of pushrod stroke, kind of sounds like they are setting them to tight

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

we sold everything so much easier

[@roballan4944]

Watch application air on truck and trailer and compare for difference. sounds like a quick release valve is stuck.

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

i was watching it today, im actually lucky i have trailer and tractor application gauges, i think the trailer is higher the truck, i was pulling a different trailer today and it was touchy too, plus its warm here this whole last month so i know there's no ice build up in the system, thanks for the tip, im going to really pay attention to it tomorrow

[@ds3552]

Thought at first that was a Newfie way of loading those 4 picks on trailer until I saw the excavator\forklift was loading himself.

[@oldpete3153]

Would the guy's doing site work on a SOW be staying in camp at times...I wouldn't imagine they like a lot of high miles ??

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

yes at times where your way out there or nearest hotel. the floaters only get hauled and drivers have company pick ups or pilot cars as they can not drive down the highways , some drivers haul the floater they run and the other beds with regular tires drive to and from leases or home base at average speed of 80 kph. high mileage no not normally. RT sow only had 150,000 kms on it and it was 2004 i think. floater operators really have it made, no worries about logs, or DOT since they only operate on private roads, drive pickups to and from location

[@flyovercounty1427]

Is that the Brassiere Dam?

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

Brazeau 👍 I probably spelt it wrong.

[@brycet6149]

I have an opportunity for a winch truck job in North Dakota. I just got my CDL. The company said I will get lots of training before I am left alone. Would you recommend a complete newbie take a job like that??

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

I don’t know what it’s like in the states, looks to be a bit dryer. If they are offering the opportunity and you want it I’d go for it. You won’t know till you try

[@gordpolis6785]

What reservoir is that your crossing?

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

brazeau dam hwy 620 and sunchild road located between rocky mountain house and drayton valley

[@joeysharp7786]

Are you running regular CB radio,s

[@Icum4u]

VHF

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

some have them but we do not, i cant keep antennas on or in good shape. they seem to break in the ice fog we get, ive never had good luck with getting any distance out of them, ive never had a turned up one tho. the only timed i turned it on was to yell at the guy that just pulled out in front of me. we mostly run VHF

I love the intro…. Feels like an intro to a Miami vice episode! 👌🏻keep up the sweet vidyas

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

thanks, i try to make 2 intros a year, this time i was struggling on what to do. its not the greatest but still cool. i never get enough outside footage of passing by. requires me to stop place a camera back up a km and drive past, stop back up or walk back, i need a film crew would make this so much easier

I do like the vibe on your videos. Great soundtrack. I agree with the Miami Vice Jan Hammer sound!!!

I love that truck. And get to see it lots. I wouldn’t think twice about working there if I had a truck like that

[@mjkrigging6374]

So are u saying empty high boy buster 1

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

yes, is typical to call and give some form of relevance to what your driving,tank trucks call empty for direction, heavy for they are loaded with fluids (empty heavy tanker km 26 buster creek). empty in loaded out, loaded light..........BC its up or down. i only call bobtail or what trailer im pulling or wide, as little as possible dont hog the channel with pointless words

Winter grease, summer grease. Is that like winter air, summer air in your tires? Asking for a friend 🥸

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

no not the same, thinner vs thicker, same as motor oils, you'd run thicker in the summer to put up with the heat, just as thinner for winter to tolerate the cold. -40 summer grease bunches up and falls off when exposed to the elements. everything has to work harder, even shaking a load its more work with summer grease (allegedly) says new york times

[@rorygielarowski8972]

Forklift? Excavator? Really!

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

pretty handy on the rig vs a loader with forks

Is any work out thier in thr winter wouldlove to try it have drove log truck in bc for twenty five years try somthing different.😊😊

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

well there seems to be lots of logging out west all along the mountain line, as for oilfield ive been flat out since i started here. but not all places are this busy

[@rogerbeddall9223]

👍👍

[@Barz365]

do you clutch out of gear when down shifting? or do you blip the throttle to downshift? thanks for all the content man, you fucking rule.

[@TimelapseTruckerRTOT]

Float the greats always, only use the clutch to start out. The Cypris truck had a rev limiter so I got caught lots where I couldn’t blip the throttle to get it out of gear. So clutch it was. The odd time when it’s deep mud I might use the clutch to bang a gear
