bulldogboy Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Nashua Motor Express from Nashua N.H Bigdog: Nashua Motor Express; still in business and still running "R" and "U" model tractors. I think that their newest tractor is a "CH". bulldogboy Nashua Motor Express today announced it is shutting down its trucking operations after 92 years in business. The company will be involved in logistics only. They will lay off all their drivers and sell their 20 tractors, mostly "R" and "U" models. Too bad, another New England trucking company goes away joining St. Johnsbury, N&B Express, Holmes, etc. bulldogboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmerrill0516 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I love the E models and that one looks like it has some potential. I'm less than 10 minutes from Nashua. It's too bad for the drivers there. Hope they land on their feet.Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackb61sx Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Bigdog: Is that like in Nashua Corporation or something else from Nashua, NH?

bulldogboy Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Law Motor Freight has had the NH Liquor Commission warehouse contract for many years. Recently they lost the bid to DHL. This was a large part of their business so what happens to the company from this point is unknown. They are contesting the bids but who knows how that will play out? Law's Mack "A" model roof ornament is a local landmark. It is just west of the current Nashua Motor Express terminal on Amherst Street (Rte. 101A). When I was a kid, LMF was known as Law & Ingham Trucking. They, along with Nashua Motor Express, Nashua Corporation, Improved Machinery Inc., and many others, had all kinds of Mack "A", "L", "B", "R", "CH", etc. tractors and straight trucks in operation. Along with the fire department's fleet of Macks, it was a great time to be a Mack fan. bulldogboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
