CF 16-3401 shot in 1976 and 18-3401 (sleeper) shot in 1987 near Page, AZ. Note the differences in appearence even though they are the same basic Freightliner cab. David Faust Collection. Another COE Dave got to drive when the older 216-6566 tractor was in the shop (which was often!). David Faust Collection.

Two shots of Dave's tractor when freshly repainted in 1989. David Faust Collection. A tag axle tandem with a then new Pines 48' van. Shot on the NY Thruway in 1989. David Faust Collection.

A CF International shot at Wallingford. David Faust Collection. These Internationals weren't really that rare as CF had about 150 of them. Here are two together on the Thruway in 1989. David Faust Collection.

A dark green and yellow Freightliner in the background where Joe learned how to work on trucks. This was a truck donated to the school by Consolidated Freightways; it is from the 60's, a White Freightliner. ROC (Regional Occupation Center) in Hayward, CA. Taken in 1979. Joe Hyberg Collection. When Joe worked on a drug store dock, this is a picture of one of the CF trucks making a delivery at Dublin, CA in 1985. Joe Hyberg Collection. This is Bill Logan. He was a frequent delivery person at the place that Joe worked. At that time, CF had a lot of professional drivers. Note: Bill was nice enough to give Joe some contact names at the CF shop, because Joe wanted to buy a used CF truck. Joe would like to thank Bill and CF for helping him obtain his truck. This picture was taken at Dublin, CA in 1985. Joe Hyberg Collection.

This is the truck that Joe purchased at Consolidated Freightways. This is the truck that Joe learned to drive, and it opened up a lot of opportunities for him. The truck was purchased in Hayward, CA in 1985. Joe Hyberg Collection. Specs on this truck: This Freightliner was CF #116-3994, 6V92 Detroit, six speed transmission. Joe also worked for CF as a casual after he got his licenses. Consolidated Freightways will be missed by many of us. This picture was taken in Lorenzo, CA in 1985. Joe Hyberg Collection. This photo was shot at the Howard Johnsons rest area on the Mass Pike at Stockbridge. These CF drivers stopped for lunch on their run from Buffalo to Chicopee, MA. David Faust Collection.

Dave shot this in 1978 along I-70 in Ohio and I remember seeing a few of these 45' trailers for CF with the flag logo on the door for the US Bicentennial. David Faust Collection. This was shot in March 1980 in Tonowanda, NY at CF's Buffalo Consolidation Center. David Faust Collection. Ready line in Buffalo also in March 1980. David Faust Collection.

I would like to thank my family for support. 1985 Lorenzo, CA. Joseph Hyberg Collection. CF truck in Dublin CA in 1985. Joseph Hyberg Collection.
