Making the Pick Up

            Back in 2018, I found the Pickens 9500 & another U18B making a pickup in Homeland Park, SC. This was a super foggy early morning and they would go on to work Michelin after making this pickup. I’d love to shoot these guys again soon before these old GEs go away. The chase didn’t go as planned this day so only came home with about 2 shots.
