Leach 2R-II: Queens County Carting

Yet again the Leach 2R-II shows off why it's king of the streets. Old pallets and wooden dunnage are but a light snack for the venerable Packmaster. Scott and I found this one on two separate occasions in Manhattan last July. First off was a job in SoHo around 8 A.M. Something really really big packed in wooden crates and apparently made in Italy was being delivered out the back of a 40 foot shipping container. Queens County's Leach had been dispatched to dispose of all the packing material. And there was quite a bit of it. Afterward both Scott and I then got a chance to watch the driver show off his shifting prowess and take in the amazing sound of the engine (read below) from up close, as he made his way to the next job also located in SoHo. The next day we again stumbled on the same truck and driver in Midtown munching on some more conventionally sized pallets. The middle aged 2R-II is standard fare. Equipped with an A-frame bin lift under the hopper sill and winch up top, with a second roller mounted out on a jib for better positioning of the cable over the hopper. What really stands out is the chassis, a beast of a Western Star with the old Heritage cab. Not sure of the exact year but just for reference the modern, larger Constellation cab was introduced in '96. Though I think you could still special order the Heritage for a while afterward. In any case what makes this Star exceptional is the low rumbling bass of the engine. Not sure how much of it comes through on the other end but in person this truck easily had my favorite engine note of anything we filmed in New York. There isn't much of an in your face roar like Allgone Removal's Autocar, rather a deep, low rumble you felt right in the gooch. Like a constantly thumping subwoofer. Very satisfying. And probably less fatiguing / irritating by the time the end of the shift rolls around. Thanks to the driver for being so cool with us filming. Also to Scott / Trashman242 for making the trip twice as fun as it would be otherwise. You can see this truck posted on his channel, titled “NYC Demolition Waste Trucks”. Filmed June 22nd and 23rd, 2015. For more garbage trucks, follow georgewuzheer on: Instagram:   / georgewuzheer   Facebook:   / georgewuzheer
