- AB Triple Road Train to the Mines
I picked up this load from Melbourne going up to Queensland. This time I get to show you how I load some of it then driving all the way to the mine. I show a little in the mine.
Hi from France, or is that G'day from France or 'Allo 'Allo from France, just blows me out your vidéos,just another day at work,three trailers,thousands of kms,floods,heat,deadlines,all in a days work....
It's all fun until something goes wrong. Ha ha
Great bit of reversing at the beginning..!
Thanks Tim
Goodday Johno,
Sweet combination there, you got to love the fact it didn't evolve any tarping.
Safe travels.
I saw these machines in Melbourne used on the tunnel project just off Footscray Rd.
Cheers
Louis Kats 👍
Oh yeah
It's pretty impressive when you're going through the floodwaters. This is the biggest advantage of these prime movers that they can wade through the water without any problem. If the water level isn't too high of course. I'm sure the car drivers really envied you. 😛 Your AB triple looks amazing with the interesting load. And as always your aerial footage is gorgeous. 👍
Thanks for your kind words
Now that's how you back a 34 pallet 22/12 Roada. Big mate. Real big.
Yeah I've been backing up for years. Can you believe, at first I could only back up road trains because that's all I drove at first. It's all about practice.
Yeah mate. Try a 10 pallet sometime. 26m's is much easier.🙄
This wide brown land is not so brown atm....Magnificent !!
For sure
A few bucks worth of trailers and powerplant there Johnno,great footage mate!
Yeah those platforms would cost a bundle
Great job backing up. You are a pro!
Thanks Bruce
Cool footage boss .water water everywhere ,I came back from Dubbo to brissy and still water across some of the causeways on the newell be careful bloke.
Yeah when will it end.
@@RoadTrainAdventures hopefully it might settle down soon.trouble is we will go back into drought again.lol.feast or famine .this is OZ.
@@RoadTrainAdventures most of the mines i go to wont allow cameras or photos on site.
Yes the weather is all over the place.
Another great video Johnno, keep 'em coming.
Thanks man. Sure will
Great music and footage
Thanks Peter
Mines regularly suffer confliction between verbal and non verbal clearances for requests outside policy. Many will state they do not want technologies developed, tested and refined onsite publically exposed, either by accident or by purpose. Anything that may assist a competitor is highly policed. Their refusal to allow filming may be because of this but I suspect unload may of not followed minesite procedures, exposing unsafe practises and high risk to equipment and/or employees. Whatever the excuse, cover your bases! 👍👍🇭🇲
That's exactly right. They are afraid of someone doing something wrong, by mistake if course.
@@RoadTrainAdventures 30 years a senior mechanical engineer on Australian minesites, you learn quickly to 1. Turn a blind eye. 2. Forget conveniently and 3. Safety comes first right after production 👍👍🇭🇲
Nice reversing skills young fella 👍
Minister or not, hard hats and tag lines are not just mandatory they are life saving !
@@johnjordan4647 Yeah, I thought it was very neat. 🙂
Australia redefines the expression bufu!
For sure
Cool vid
Thanks
Nice job Johno.
Thanks
What happened to the middle axle of your last trailer it's tyres looks a bit off
Ah you're the first to say anything. We have super singles on all our steers and as you can imagine we have a lot that wear out in places of the tyre, so we put those on the middle axle of a few trailers to run them out instead of just throwing them away.
@@RoadTrainAdventures oh nice way use every life of those tyres but does transport inspectors have any kind of objections ?
I don't think so. I've never been pulled up whilst towing them. You see we swap trailers most trips so I don't have them all the time.
@@RoadTrainAdventures oh nice 👍
Awesome
Very good
Gone one
Thanks heaps
Hope ya let them bearings cool off before goin through that water.
All bearings should be very cool. If they were hot enough to let some water bother it them you're in trouble.
Loading in depot no hard hats ??? Driving through flood water up axles water in bearings???
You only have to worry about bearings if the caps are loose and what are hard hats going to do with such items.
@@RoadTrainAdventures hard hat under crane normal mandatory safety gear,axle seals do not keep water out, had bit experience with transport/cranes
That’s a hard beenie he is wearing and the other bloke has his shiny hard hat on. Safe as houses. Jeff
@@rosskennedy Don't stand under the load . Pretty simple .
You know if your seals are not sealing if their is oil or grease everywhere in the wheel
Why does it seem like Australia is a couple of cities and everything else is way out in the wilderness and you have to drive a thousand miles through rivers, swamps, quicksand, and volcanos to get there? Don't you guys have regular highways? I mean I think Aussies are among the coolest people on Earth but what's with the roads, dude?
Thanks for that but we have lots of normal highways but everyone has seen a normal highway so I like to show the smaller roads we travel on.
@@RoadTrainAdventures Well, do you get many road trains going to regular destinations or mostly way out to the boonies?
Dollars,didn't that mob use cart spuds out Gatton.????
I'm not sure
I think you were speeding there at 2:03, foolish of you to film such behavior :D
Ha ha
not sure why you would make this video so short... try to aim for 10+ minutes... less music and more narration.. like your other videos.
Thanks. It's hard to make videos that please everyone. Still trying to find the right balance.
@@RoadTrainAdventures yep. You do ur best and we will keep watching... Cheers mate.
Awesome
Not trying to be a dick but you should have saved that bat
I wouldn't know what to do. It looks like they all go there to die.
Yes he should have. Pretty sickening to just film something suffering like that and do nothing.
I'm not sure if I could have done anything. Bats hand upside down so what could have I done?
@@sharonfairclough4141 Too true.
Only needed a stick... kinda weird that it was in the video if he did nothing.
