Phase 1 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 That's a stout looking B-71. And if I remember right, the other B is a B-77. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Dash Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Werner would have alot more drivers (at least "real" drivers) running MacksThe current Werner with the blue trucks was founded in 1956 and the first truck was a new Ford. I believe the Werner in the above picture was the company that eventually became Werner Continental. It's interesting that both have an arrow in their logos but I can't find any info suggesting the to companies were connected in any way.http://www.werner.com/content/about/crossroads_werner_timeline.cfm Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brocky Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Since the Werner trucking family also owns the Werner Ladder Company it is hard to tell if there is a connection. Quote Brocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaysm35a2 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Thanks for the info , that would be great if the two were the same, and have a bit of Mack history to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james j neiweem Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Green Dash I used to see Werner trucks all the time in the 1950's commimg down through Wisconsin from St Paul Minnesota. They were the same paint scheme as the ford L-9000 and they were mostly macks (B's) with a mix of IH gasers and GMC cannonballs and crackerboxes as I remember. I am sure they were around before 1956. You may have been talking about an earlier ford but that L-9000 didn't come about until the 70's as I recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Werner, founder of the Werner Enterprises, the huge company with the blue trucks. He founded his company in 1956 in Omaha and I don't think there was any connection between him and the earlier Werner that you're referring to. I just found the use of an arrow in both company's logos to be interesting. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
