  • OMG. i used to see these ALL the time when i was little in Cornado. You know maybe i wil go over there sometimwe.nice catch

  • Mad little truck :P

  • Very cool truck!

  • Sure is...

  • i bet if scot gave him a soda or water he could film all he wanted LOL or a playboy

  • Maybe :D

  • @staintedcards  nah if u gave him a playboy hed just drive off haha

  • @garbageboycd i wonder if he would know what too do with it lol

  • @staintedcards haha

  • @staintedcards ...who wouldn't? well maybe like a 5 year old or something....that would just be damn creepy

  • Great shots!

  • Thnx Ken

  • No problem!

  • Quite the old ride! Nice catch 5 stars

  • Thank you!

  • Nice find! EDCO seems to keep the old trucks running, pretty cool

  • Yeah they impress me with how they keep these trucks going...very good company in that respect--gotta love the oldies!

  • excellent work. this truck is truly a beauty. and ive always enjoyed the sounds of those CCC's.

    At 4:11, all i could hear was the driver yelling "hey, hey" or something. what was he saying? i bet he got mad cause you were filming to close. suks to deal with drivers like that.

    anyways loved the video

    5 stars and favorites for sure

  • No @ 4:11 he was saying 'Alright!' as in 'Alright now you got that [hopper shot] and you gotta be satisfied completely, won't you leave now?' as a hint for me to leave I guess...thanks for watching/commenting! He was an ok driver, just didn't want the camera around...

  • at least he allowed you to film. other drivers wouldnt even let you take out your camera

  • Well it's because I began by taking shots from the opposite side of the truck/his blind spots lol, and they ended up making up most of this video lol

  • Guess he doesn't understand the historical significance of your video. It always sucks when drivers aren't happy about being filmed, guess they are just uneasy about the whole camera thing. I wish it was just easier to explain that you are more interested in the truck and not their job performance. Great video, 5* and Fav!

  • Woah Classic truck!

    5 n fav!

  • Yeah did you see the LA pic @ beginning? Same exact body model!

  • Yeah. I wish I was alive to see one in person.

  • Great comeback video.

    IDK if Rainbow used these or Maxons when they had by-hand. They both look alike. Overall, I give this video 5 stars and a spot in my "Rare Finds" playlist. I would have featured it but the new channel layout makes it impossible.

  • Thanks! Are you questioning what they had before the single axle Amreps w/Detroit Diesels in them?

  • Yeah I guess but the single axle MSLs looked like the Maxon from your WOF Monday Series from last year.

    But I guess they were Amreps after all seeing as Rainbow usually buys CCC and Amreps. I don't think they use Detroit Diesel anymore, only CNG and some other kind of diesel.

  • Well the single axle one in the Monday series was a ShuPack, this one's obviously Amrep. My guess would be that Rainbow had Amreps throughout their history (since they buy mostly them for commercial, some residential). And no, from the vids I've seen it looks like most if not all their trucks don't have Detroits today....

  • Rainbow did have Amrep barn door MSL's like this one. Truck number 79. 80, 81, 82, 83, 84 (I believe) were of this type. I remember following them around before I started getting into getting these things on video. Just for the record, they were powered by Detroit Diesel and those older trucks were EXTREMELY LOUD!

  • Wow I wish I could find a pic of one in the RD scheme...thanks for the clarification!

  • Oh and.. who does trash and recycle ?

  • Scott!

    1. HEY nice to see ya back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    2. AWESOME truck! Was this in you hood or somewhere different ? I really like to see all these EDCO trucks... Awesome post!

  • It's nice to BE back...different place on the Wed. route. EDCO Bridgeport ASL does trash and 209 does recyc. I think the normal greens for this place is 64, I'll confirm that eventually...

  • So I guess these MSLs dominated trash routes before ASL back then? But it's still good to see this 1 holding its own on yard waste runs now! That Cat 3208 V8 mid diesel must consume a lot of fuel running that fast packer at every stop! I guess the Cummins B series would consume less! But anyway, I'm glad these old MSLs are still running in your area, hope they maintain these well! Great Stuff, 5*!

  • Thanks! Yeah they do a pretty good job. I think this truck operates halfway as a spare and halfway as a regular route truck.

  • "Why don't you go film one of those other trucks over there?" haha "Sorry buddy, been there and done that!"

    So this would be that very, very ancient truck I read about. Looks good for its age, kept in good condition by what I just saw. Pretty small truck too, kinda cute hehe I guess you requested the cycles at the end hey? =] All these EDCO (ones with the same paint scheme) really hold some cool trucks. Nice footage, I see you got as much as you could out of the drivers view - sneaky! :P

  • YEAH lol those shots were my blind-shot just in case ones that turned out to be very useful LOL!!

    Yeah of course I wanted to say, "Well, being that I can see those any day, that this truck's a GOOD 20-25 yrs. old, and that it's probably the last of it's kind anywhere, uhhmmm, that's gonna have to be a no"

  • =] He probably would've raised an eyebrow, tilted his head slightly to the side and given you a look of "wtf?" lol

  • haha, and then I still would've had to leave

    oh well, I've got some more video of this truck on the way, with a considerably better driver :D :D

  • great job!!!!

  • Thnx

  • your welcome

  • Awesome! Scott

  • Thank you
