Well West Coast Fast Freight wanted to expand their service to Chicago so they could serve their customers better. To do this, West Coast partnered with a company out of Omaha Nebraska called “Watson Bros. Transportation Company Incorporated” #dcpbyfirstgear #mackbmodel #Watsonbros #Watsonbrostransportation #macktrucks #mackb #dcp #diecastpromotions #firstgear #diecast #ProductReview --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/logan-skeele/message

Grab a copy here: https://bit.ly/Fallen-Flags The west coast has brought us some of the largest and most famous trucking companies. Pacific Intermountain Express comes to mind right off the bat. But many others were running on Highway 1 California like West Coast Fast Freight Inc. West Coast Fast Freight was formed at the end of World War II. From a small beginning, it rapidly grew through acquisition, and dedicated service. Innovation was another area West Coast used to stay ahead of the competition. One such experimental truck was built by Kenworth and powered by Boeing. #Peterbilt351 #pete351 #westcoastfastfreight #firstgear #dcp #dcpbyfirstgear #diecastpromotions #fallenflag #diecast #ProductReview --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/logan-skeele/message

Ringsby better known as Bill founded Ringsby Freight System in 1928 with 1 truck, a REO Speedwagon. He first started hauling coal around Denver Colorado. From these humble beginnings the line grew in scope and size. Much of the company's growth was attributed to numerous acquisitions. The ICC or Interstate Commerce Commission regulations of the time made acquiring new territory very hard and expensive, so rather than go the hard route most carriers just purchased their competition to get into their territory. At their peak, Ringsby operated 43 terminals in 26 states. And By 1981 the fleet had grown to over 6,000 trucks. #Peterbilt351 #RingsbyFreightSystem #Ringsby #fallenflag #firstgear #diecast #ProductReview #64thScale --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/logan-skeele/message

Little Audrey's Transportation was started in the late 1940s. It was after the war and Refrigerated van trailers were just coming into their own and Little Audrey's was one of the first to jump and focus on Refrigerated Freight. This was a huge turning point in freight. Cold freight was no longer limited to distance between ice houses where the trailers would be iced down. And as you know with ice and warm temperatures it melts. Now in the winter with below freezing this wasn't a problem, but the rest of the year it was a big big problem for moving cold loads and pretty much just forget moving frozen loads. The founders at Little Audrey's saw this as the future of trucking and incorporated their company in New Mexico but headquartered it in a tiny hole in the wall office in Fremont Nebraska. That little office only had a couple of dispatchers and office staff needed for sales and paperwork. Their office was just a converted 2 bedroom house on a big lot that was paved so trucks could pull in and park. I'll bet the neighbors just loved that. The legend goes, Little Audrey's was named after one of the founder's wives' name. Probably some truth in that as not many trucking companies were named after women back in those days. There were a few, but not many. #Peterbilt351 #LittleAudreys #fallenflag #firstgear #diecast #ProductReview #64thScale --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/logan-skeele/message
LLN (12/16/20) – A missing Navajo Code Talkers flag finds safe harbor when a trucker stumbles upon it, and fate intervenes in bringing all parties together for the reunion. Freight and rates seem to be cooling off as we head into the end of the year. And breaking down President-elect Biden’s choice of Pete Buttigieg to lead the Department of Transportation. 0:00 – Newscast. 9:44 – Fallen flag reunion. 24:37 – Freight and rates cooling off. 39:35 – Buttigieg tapped to lead DOT.
We recently finished posting Fallen Flag, a Red Markets campaign, so I got Caleb, David, Shaun, and Faust together to discuss it. We talk about everything from creating the enclave to individual character arcs. If you haven’t caught up with Fallen Flag, check out our campaign page, which links all of the episodes.

Just One Last Score. Mr. JOLS. It is time for Fallen Flag to seek out Two Banners, a theme park held by a violent cult of archivists. The territory and its resources are invaluable, so Fallen Flag must push the cult out to succeed. Of course, there's a reason why no one else has wiped out the cult. Their secret weapon may be too much for Fallen Flag to handle, but the die has been cast. Even if the crew takes the water park, what will happen to them? Will they reach retirement? Can they ever be happy again? Find out in the campaign finale of Fallen Flag! Special art made by Patsy McDowell!
Fallen Flag has raised enough money to chase after Mr. JOLS, Just One Last Score. Before they embark, they must plan their mission. Learn what Two Banners truly stands for and what they are chasing after. See what each team member does in their final hours before leaving. To reconnect with family, friends, or contemplate their own mortality.
Fallen Flag looks for work in Big Sky country before heading back to Trabajo. Of course, the enclave does not let wandering takers do whatever they want. The team must find a job that won't get them killed by the local militia or failing that, find out how to outwit them. If they complete this job, only their last score stands between them and retirement.
Fallen Flag travels back west to a new enclave but before they reach it, they must survive the trip. A critically injured witness must be silenced before he alerts anyone. Casualties block the rails. Deals must be struck. More importantly, the team must stay together even though tensions between them have never been higher. Will they avoid killing each other before they arrive at the next leg of their journey?
Fallen Flag has liberated a cache of vital data from the DHQS during their recent black site raid. Now they have a chance to sell the data to the Moths. However, they must smuggle the computers out of an enclave while another Taker group hunts for them. The government has put a bounty for their heads, although they are not sure who raided the black site. What price is Fallen Flag willing to pay to make the sale?
Fallen Flag undertakes their most dangerous mission yet! In order to extract a single engineer with very specialized knowledge, the team must rescue him from a DHQS black site in the Loss. They must sneak into the site, breach its walls, and kill all of the defenders before they even learn if the engineer is even still alive. But even if accomplish all of that, they still must escape.
Fallen Flag is on the road! Well, tracks, technically. Trabajo has sent a train on the first trading mission of the year. It will travel hundreds of miles to distant enclaves, trading food for technology and other supplies. Fallen Flag has signed on to protect the train during the journey but the real Bounty is in finding jobs at each enclave they visit. Their first job seems simple enough: find an engineer with a particular skill set. However, no job is as simple as it seems. To complete it, the crew will face a very hard choice.
Instead of taking a contract, Fallen Flag decides to try for a Score. They've heard of a cache of cargo drones that would fetch a high price in the market, so they head out to grab them. Of course, there's a reason why no one else has retrieved the drones yet. A sinister foe unlike any they've faced before between them and their goal. Before they know it, the team is in the crosshairs.
Fallen Flag has evacuated a group of refugees in order to bring them to their own enclave. Between them and safety stands an unknown number of vectors wandering the countryside. In order to save the refugees, the takers must find a way to lead the undead away. Of course, serving as bait for a marathon running zombie is far from a safe proposition, especially when the team is so low on resources. Will everyone make it back?
A neighboring enclave wants Fallen Flag to clear out a walled neighborhood so the land can be used for other purposes. The client seems to be vague about the details of the job but the group needs the bounty. On the way to the job, they encounter a patrol of slavers. Can they even survive getting to the job site, let alone complete it?
Fallen Flag finds a job working for a faction inside Trabajo, one that will benefit the enclave itself. They must extract sensors from vending machines in a nearby high school. For some reason, the building is intact and the sensors are intact. No one seems to occupy it, a fact that troubles the takers, but they must do the job regardless of what awaits them. Of course, getting there and back poses its own problems, as Fallen Flag discovers. Sometimes what looks like an opportunity is just another threat.
After their score, Fallen Flag looks for work. They soon find a simple job, delivering cooking oil to a nearby enclave called the Coop. Fresh cooking oil is a valuable commodity in the Loss now that almost all of the prepackaged food from before the Crash has been eaten or has spoiled. Crossing a zombie-filled wasteland carrying heavy jugs of cooking oil is no easy task though and there's always a complication with these kind of jobs. Sometimes the client even tries to pull a fast one...
Fallen Flag are a group of takers in Trabajo, an enclave located in a train yard in Greeley Colorado. They know this must be their last year on the job. They have to save up enough bounty to pull off the score of a life time, the engimatic "Two Banners", or die trying. Their first mission is a score. A fracking operation run by the government has been abandoned, leaving precious fuel for the taking. No one knows why the site has been abandoned but Fallen Flag is willing to take the risk to find out. Learn more about the enclave in this thread on the RPPR Forums.
