- Way back, I remember coming home from Kindergarten and seeing one of City of Fresno’s brand new LNG Autocar Xpeditor Rapid Rail on my street. Fast forward 16 years and City of Fresno has gotten rid of all of the now old, beaten and abused Xpeditors. Some have been parted out, and others have been sold to local haulers. Seen here is one of the 4 (?) Ex City of Fresno trucks that operate out of their Whitesbridge yard doing post Christmas recycle in Sanger. While Waste Management Fresno is known for having all kinds of carts in all kinds of colors, Sanger is known for having many models of Toters as you can see in the video. After all of MVDs acquisitions, it left them with all kinds of Toter carts from various companies. Special thanks to Luis and David for their professionalism and for allowing me to tag along and film!
always a pleasure watching older rapid rails, particularly ones so well restored as this truck. first time I've seen a RR driver use the hydraulic hopper cover to press down material too
Agreed it's nice MVD bought a handful and restored them back to life
Very cool! Didn't know they had this truck at Mid Valley! Looks really good. Cart variety was awesome. Crazy how old these are now! Fun vid as always Zach!
Thanks Aaron! I know! for 15 years old it looks really great and I know MVD will keep it around until they can't any longer
Do these still run normally out in Sanger? I’m considering making a trip out there!
Yep they should be running for many more years there
@@zp12684 also do they run anything else besides rapid rails out there?
@@westernstategarbagetrucks They may have a Sac Amrep on GW but I'm not totally sure if it's still running
@@zp12684 appreciate the help!
Truck is sitting in a scrap yard in Madera.
Well that had a shorter than expected life... The yard on 18 1/2 and 99?
Great Job Zack on the recording and the Editing.......
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
Wow that’s a dinosaur find right there my friend, absolutely love the paint scheme and how well this truck is maintain. We used to have one with the original Republic brown that we think got scrapped. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!!
WOW! Incredible find, I grew up on these trucks only on Volvo cabs. Nice to see these still running. Is this a main truck? Nice to see a few lid flips too
Thanks!! Yep this one and about 3 others are main route trucks
at 14:25 what happened right there? what's he writing for? you just skip the part there
They got a notice tag to cut their box down
14:23 just take it out lol
Great job! Loved seeing all those overfilled carts. I noticed the interior of the cab is blue, was the whole truck blue at one point?
Thanks Andres! The cab was blue for the top and bottom then split half yellow and green for the middle. See www.flickr.com/photos/129422499@N07/17265965121/in/album-72157650203732215/
Always enjoy these old school Rapid Rails at work especially on older Autocar chassis like this one. Excellent video, enjoying these post Christmas ones especially!
Thanks!!
