Yup, M&G Convoy outa Westboro, MA
That Bruin looks to be a Turbo 6-71 and I think the trailer is a Delevan 3200. Fun to load with 2 sets of skinny skids. Delevan cut those trailers up to make "Quick Loaders" out of them. They were by far the easiest and fastest to load. I used to load 9 Saabs out of Davisville, RI (4 chains on each) in 45 minutes. (after the cars were pulled) I've been to Delavan in Buffalo / West Senaca many times.
Just quickly looked at your Flickr account. Going to have to find some real time to go over it. Thanks for sharing it.
I have a bunch of White/GMC Volvo pictures from doing test loads.
