- We spotted this BEAST at the Auski Roadhouse in the Pilbara region of Western Australia!
This rig is 60 metres (195 feet) long, has 33 axles and weighs 71 tonnes un-laden. Fill it up with 163 tonnes of ore, and the gross combination mass climbs to an immense 234 tonnes. Despite this massive load, the Volvo FH700 10x6 engine gets the train up to its maximum allowable speed of 90 km/h with ease.

The Australian Trucks are builts to work in Mars.
Great to see that it's not just American conventional type trucks but some European trucks,, in the tough environments posed in Australia brilliant video thanks from Northern Ireland greatly appreciated ☘️☘️☘️☘️😁
Yes I was amazed to see Volvos and Scanias being used as road trains in Australia. I thought they just used the American bull nose trucks like Kenworth Peterbilt etc.
Very Good....Very Like. Powers...
Proud to be Volvo truck fitter here in Australia
I had forgotten just how clear and blue the sky was up in Northern Australia. The road trains are longer than they were 30 years ago, well the special ones are at least.
Yes it's amazing how you never tire of the sky, so clear up here!
Trucking at another level
Super video top
It's like railfanning without the rails.
Australia must be the only market that they use tridem axles,have never seen it anywhere else.Is it specialbuilt or is it option from the factory.
Volvo FH16 700 10x6 Tridem - D16G powered (700hp/3150Nm), 12 speed iShift AMT
What is cruising speed full loaded , how much is 1 gear (km/h) , fuel consuption fully loaded at 80kmh ? Thx
33 axles, 128 tyres and 660 lug nuts - I'd hate to be the poor kid with the impact driver at the roadside tyre shop when this guy pulls in.
"Need my tyres rotated mate - all 128 of them"
"No worries mate. She'll be done in 15... hours"
Esses volvos são máquinas pra estrada nenhuma botar defeito 😀👍
Now i know why truck engines in australia runs only about 5-750000 km only and the need rebuilt
Here in canada same engine go upto 1800000km
In Europe you can easily get it to 2mil kilometres with barely any repairs whatsoever

Bro dust cannot damage engine there are components that protect the engine like
Airfilter
Fuel filter
Engine oil filter
Only thing kill engine in auss is load
In canada max gross weight is 63 tonnes normally
@@13_darius They are on full boost %90 of the time and the 700's shit heads all the time.
That s awesome!!!!
That's My Type That's My Type 33 Axles Pulling Four Heavy Trailers on a ( B- Train setup )... Awesome Cool Video
Thanks 👍
Does this truck traverse a route where it needs to climb steep inclines?
Not bad going for a 700😎👌!
Super trucks
:) :) Muy buen video :)
Aqui no Brasil trabalho com um Rodotrem 30 metros acho grande, imagine esse de 60 metros. Parabéns pelo vídeo 👏👏👏👏👏
Será que no Brasil tem esse volvo 10x4 ? nunca vi aqui.
I should get Volvo FH16
What a beast! Very rare to see a 10x6 chassis or even 10x10
It’s starting to become more common now slowly are requirements are exceeding what even a 8x4 or even 8x8 can offer
Wasn't it Cromok at the beginning of your video?
Real euro power.
I drive doubles in NY. I wanna move to Australia to do this
I drive doubles in Brazil only 30 meters long and 74 gross tons. The problem for me in Australia is that you have to change gears with your left hand.
@@samuelnascimento5267 it’s easy to adapt.
Volvo is the best I'm driving F2000 man
👍
the most amazing part of this to me is how they can do this with all of the driving controls on the wrong side of the cabin
Haha, right side to us though cheese chisel!
If your steering wheel is on the left side it’s not right!
There always has be just that ONE jackass with that same lame stupid 'joke' in every video . . .
The wrong side? There is no right or wrong side it’s just some countries drive on the other side you dummy.
With that kind of load, how is the fuel consumption?
Very high Karras, can be a litre per kilometre!
Pulling a Titan Mack 685hp triple 300 ton all up 600m to the litre
@@martinsparrow150 Mack engine(MP10)is Eolvo FH16 engine...minimal diferent..
Wanna play with the big gear, come to Australia. Just got my MC 3 months ago and stepping into singles now
Where did you get a job mate? Have had my HC for 1 year now and no luck except casual work...
@@hohoshang32 I started full time but casual now with Wickhams; as long as you are worker they we will hiore you
I drive drive scannia body; as well as a T40? and a k104
No thanks, trucking in Australia is a bit too extreme for me. Can't imagine having to go downhill in a truck hauling 4 or 5 heavily loaded trailers.
Volvo FH16
👍😎😍
😎👍
Why does it have so many wheels? In India, we have 16wheel-5axle trucks with a gross weight of 50 tonnes.
Maximum weight allowed is calculated by the weight per axle. Hence more axles = more allowed weight on the road.
Yes and we see how much you break shit over there too with your 50t on 16 wheeler 5 axle
@@omursaraslan6316 1.8 ton per wheel
In Australia 2 tons on per wheel is allowed
How much ore dust in its air filter?
Shitloads
Better Not miss a turn😡 how the Phuck do you back that shiznit UP🚛
you Aussie drivers are skilled.🤔🚛
I guess when that roo you hit comes out the back it's only a stain on the red earth.
Most have steer axles on the trailers and can turn surprisingly tight. Look up tieman tanks on you tube. It's just ads but has some impressive u-turns
Kenworth and Volvo are the best
It's simple. You want the best trucks just buy Swedish. Volvo and Scania!!!
why don't they use trains in Australia?
Becouse trains dont go everywhere in Australia, trucks can go to much more remote parts of australia.
Too much ground to cover Jamil, they could never possibly cover it all.
Try backing that into a dock
D16 engine with 700 horses on it.hehehe
Hahaha that poor Tire Guy that's really got to suck
Na keeps him in business
The tire guy is getting rich. Selling tires every day. Or making money just for checking the pressure.

Aussies dont need freight trains.
These monster roadtrains do the job instead and needs no costly railsystems.
As long as the desert is still desert dry, the road is there ... ahead of you.
Would not be possible on other continents.
Probably not, we have lots of mountains and tight turns!! In Africa
Clearly a mod.
What do you mean? Volvo Australia build them like this straight out of the factory
Not sure if I would want to drive a truck where you sit over the axel.
Neither me, would much prefer one that the driver is seated in the cab . . .
You would if they paid you enough.
They must be paying him go for that job,or robbing him also.🤣😂
It's the only mega qaud in the Pilbara and it will be the only one. Yes it carries a lot of ore but it's a terrible combination. Qaud dollys snap exactly in half. Qaud was tried in QLD years ago and they learnt but greed steps in.
Not the only mega quad in WA at all, there are plenty running in different areas namely into Geraldton Port for one
last axle tag
Nope it's a tri~drive
Super Slow powers..,
You know it can go up to 90kmh right! What exactly is slow about that!? With 234tons ???
The vovlo truck is struggling
nope
Is it ???
no,it.s not..it pulls the heavy load easily,the Volvo is pulling better than the American trucks.
