Fort Wayne builds trucks and grows soybeans. The General Motors plant and its autoload at Roanoke put the car haulers on the road, one job in eleven inside the city is in a plant, and Allen County plants more acres of soybeans than any other county we write about in Indiana. More than half the carriers based here are private fleets.
A Fort Wayne yard holds a car hauler, a flatbed with machinery, a box truck, a grain hopper at harvest, a hog hauler, a dump truck working the Ardmore quarry, a garbage truck, and a semi truck with a sleeper that works the lanes out of the city; the Triple Crown yard puts the trailers on rail.
Pine Valley and Waynedale
Two BMV branches inside the city, Pine Valley at 10204 Coldwater Road and Waynedale at 6011 Bluffton Road, issue a duplicate title with a photo ID and record the title transfer. Indiana's separate brand for a trailer is explained on the Indiana page.
A car hauler ages in the ramps, the hydraulics and the headrack; a hog hauler in the trailer floor and the gates. Picture those, the tractor's cab and motor with them, and name the plant or the farm it served.
Fifteen posted bridges and the Airport Expressway
Indiana holds the federal weight table and lets the counties post lower, as the Indiana page explains. Fort Wayne's list is real: fifteen bridges with a load posting inside the city and four under fourteen feet, the lowest at ten feet seven where the Airport Expressway crosses the St. Marys River, which a quarry dump truck on the south side already knows.
Tell us where the truck is, out by the GM plant, in New Haven by the East Wayne yard or on the south side near the airport, and send photos and the title.
