What We're Hauling: Minerals, Limestone & Bulk Transit Secrets
from Always Pneumatic, Never Static · host alwayspneumaticneverstatic
Pneumatic freight drivers, this one's for you. In Episode 5 of Always Pneumatic, Never Static, we're getting into the grit and grind of bulk mineral hauling with two guys who live it daily: Rob Shope, Terminal Manager at Fairborn, and Mike Short, a bulk mineral driver with real-world miles behind him. We're talking limestone, talc, sand, cement, concrete aggregate, and pebble lime, what these products are, how they haul differently than food grade, where they end up, and what you need to know to run them right. Think PSI, valves, pressure management, and keeping things clean in a dirty environment. Stick around after the interview because we'll drop some facts about just how deeply limestone is woven into the infrastructure of this country. Hit play. You won't ride the same way again.
