When Dick was hauling for Lee's Transport they needed to transport some supplies from the Cassiar Mines, but they needed a trailer. Dick called someone at Millar & Brown, and they loaned them a trailer to do the work. This was taken in December 1955.

There isn't a lot of extra room on this ferry going across Stewart River. There is a Lee's Transport rig on this ferry.

This rig is near Fort Nelson on the Alaska Highway. It looks like it could be a Lynden Transfer Inc. rig.
