Now that is one awesome Mack! You can be proud of this bulldog even in before any restoration. Thanks for sharing.

Mech, I am of course going to be 77 on 06/22. By the way I really like your AAA Mack! My step father drove for them back in the 60s from the Trenton, NJ terminal and used to run local to the Ft. Dix/Maguire AFB area.

Keep on celebrating. I'll be 77 next month.

How do you explain all the Arab nations that surround Iran have not responded to the missle and drone attacks on their own countries. After the first drone or missile landed in my country all he'll would have happened. These Arabs countries do not have the balls to defend themselves against the evil terrorists called Iran.

Happy Birthday Joey!

Thanks for that info Barry. We'll have to sure to sign up early and prepay to be sure to get our models early before they sell out.

That is AWESOME Barry! What a great looking truck model kit with really good details. I can't wait until it's released.

I always had Cobras and ran twin antennas. I had my radios tuned for best output and reception. I gave my Cobras # 25, 29 and 148GTL to son who now uses one or the other in his career with ESTES.

Thanks for the bump. Does anyone from NJ or the Trenton area remember either H.M.ROYAL, INC. or HERMS TRUCKING INC.? H.M.Royal Macks were LJ, A, B, R and MH. the early ones were Mack green w/ red frames and the later were white with blue frames I believe. HERMS were B, R, U, and F models. The B's were Mack green, the R and U models were red with the roof and hood white. The F models were white with orange and red stripes. H.M ROYAL is still located on Pennington Ave. in Trenton across from the city water reservoir but does not operate any trucks except 1 straight truck that is an IH I think and HERMS is out of business but was located at 620 Pear St. near the Brunswick Circle which is now the Rick Bus Terminal I believe. Thanks to anyone who might remember these older companies from the past who operated as Mack truck companies.

Thanks tjc

BOBWhite, Where do I locate that thread? I can't seem to find it so I can read and post on there. Thanks for any help.

Yes that was the thread but I couldn't find it to be able to see if anything was still able to be read. Maybe it has been taken down I don't know. Thanks BOBWhite for the reply. I'll see if I can locate it.

Good afternoon everyone, I haven't been on here in awhile and I was wondering if the old thread, "Jersey Macks" is still on here? I think that was the name of the thread. I am originally from NJ and was always looking for any stories about some of the old Trenton, NJ trucking companies that I grew up around and drove for. Namely H,M.Royal, Inc. green Macks with red frames a variety of models and HERMS Trucking, Inc. also a variety of different model Macks and the R's were red with white hood inserts and white roofs and the F's were white with red and orange stripes. H.M.Royal is still in business in Trenton but has only 1 International straight truck for local deliveries and a few trailers still in the yard and HERMS is out of business. Thanks to anyone for ant information on the thread or these companies.

A little late to this listing but it isn't very often you here Texas, Md. mentioned. I drove for H.M.Royal, Inc. from Trenton, N.J. as did my father and we used to pick up loads there daily and return to Trenton. I sure miss driving for H.M.Royal even though they are still in business but have only 1 straight truck for local deliveries.

I'll be looking for this one for sure.
