No it was to wet to play in the dirt if the rain holds off for a couple days I will try to get one this week. If It rains I will bring a bag of dads mulch in the garage and do a video with that.

Thanks BullDog but I don't think the trailer will make it to Jersey. I hope to have the Freightliner dump done for the show.

Here is a video of the trailer, now it is not the best video I have a hard time running two radios and a camera but here you go. The doors open evenly when there is a load in it but empty it will open the one with the least resistance first but I am very happy with how it works especially considering how wet the dirt was.

Ya I really need a bigger place to run the equipment. I may start using the loader and dumps to help dad spread mulch in the train garden. We can load the train as well and he can use his dump car to get to the areas a truck won't go.
