Here is a photograph of a Tennessee Carolina Transportation (TCT) KW non-sleeper taken in about 1973. Originally they were a heavy Mack fleet and then went to KW's and then back to conventional Mack U models. I suspect the reason they went with the Kenworths, was to be able to pull 45ft. trailers in 55ft. overall length states. They also had a number of Kenworth sleepers. All tractors had horizontal exhaust. They operated from the Carolina's to Memphis. Don Querciagrossa Collection. | |

Dohrn latter sold to Hall's. | |
