In this video shot at the 2013 Mid America Truck Show, Chris Troutt talks about emissions on Ottawa Yard Trucks. EPA regulations state that you need to burn a certain amount of emissions in order to be legal.

In the video below, Louisville Switching's Chris Troutt sits down to talk about some of his experiences with Ottawa Yard Truck drivers.

What do Sprinter Vans and yard trucks have in common? Louisville Switching is what they have in common. Recently, one of our clients approached us and asked if we would consider finding them a Sprinter Van. We were honored that they thought so highly of us and trusted us to locate and ready a Sprinter for them.

Last week, Chris and I spent most of the week in Alabama. We went there to help get a new operation started with some of our trucks that were delivered on Wednesday morning. We also visited some of our current customers while we were there.

Recently, we had a chance to sit down with Darrell Hoover, our retired parts manager here at Louisville Switching Service. Darrell was with us for many years and since his recent retirement many of our customers and friends have asked about Darrell. Well rather than give you an update ourselves we thought it appropriate to interview Darrell and let him personally tell you how he’s been. Darrell highlights some of the high points of his time with us.

We had a last minute chance to participate in the 2010 Mid America Truck Show this past March and we jumped on it. Normally we have a booth each year in partnership with another Ottawa Truck Dealer and with some assistance from our dealer sponsors as well. Well with the state of the economy it appeared that we may have to sit this one out. However, Chris Troutt, our amazing salesman and jack of many trades pulled together a plan, a booth and a last minute show-truck.
