As a former truck driver from Washington state, I have the utmost respect for road train drivers. Seeing them on a screen didn't do them justice. Years ago I was in Australia for a month and saw a road train up in the Northern Territory. Unfrigginreal.
Real heavyweights over there, I've been watching aussie trucking vids for years and i don't there's one scalehouse in all of australia. you guys can haul wtf you want as long as you can get a trailer under. I love it.
+Lawdagreat lol….it's not quite like that here, we still do have strict regulations that have to be followed…hence the reason for so many cab overs still in use down here.
Greatings from USA. Great vids! Two things stick out to me, the number of COE's, a lot more down under than North America and you folks drive on the wrong side of the road... hahaha. I'm not big on green, but love those P3 Transport KW's. Rick in Illinois.
Thank you so much for this great video! My 1-year-old son already loves big vehicles (he gets very animated when he sees them). So this is a real treat for him 😊
Lot of late Model K-Whopper cabover trucks with "Boomerang" shaped windows on doors. There's even a Mack (Bulldog) trucks with "Boomerang" shaped windows on its doors.
0:05: Good start: Uncoupling the entire Roadtrain without uncoupling trailer by trailer. 0:36: At first, this 3-axle Land Cruiser is a bit weird; and in second, when it passes it looks like a motorcycle, even though it has a V8. 1:27: What animal was it? 1:37: What make of truck is the one on the left? Sterling? 2:34: Is the car with the "Oversize Load Ahead" sign a Holden Estate? 4:55: I didn't expect that the little Isuzu also did the same as the first 3: Make greetings with the horn. 6:32: That Cummins engine sounds good. 14:24: What a strange setup: Tractor converted to a rigid truck pulling a trailer. 14:54: That was indeed a dip on wheels, even if it was in a puddle. 16:49: How strange. A Kenworth with the logo in green. 17:38: What brand is this truck? The M doesn't sound like much to me. 18:18: What is on the back of the tractor is a counterweight? 23:58: The Knight Rider's truck? 25:39: I find it incredible that, despite carrying a load that exceeds its dimensions, it has to get on the sidewalk to maneuver to face the turn in the roundabout. 31:06: It's amazing that even that recumbent bike had to wait until the two trucks had passed. 32:56: What a great gathering of historic trucks! 38:40: This Kenworth Cabover looks like it has a V8 engine due to the noise of the engine picking up RPM's. 43:52: What a small trailer the second Kenworth. 44:23: First, what brand is this truck?; Second, I saw that setup in some truck videos from New Zealand, only adding two more axles, both to the truck and the trailer. 46:46: Surprising that truck was carrying Thomas. 50:14: Which truck is the one on the left, again? 51:00: What a strange truck as cargo carries this trailer. 54:38: level crossing lights... from cars? P.S. It is the only video of Australian trucks that I have seen where all (or almost all) trucks are from American manufacturers (Kenworth, Western Star, Freightliner, etc.). Here are some references where there is a "script hole" in the video: 14:15, 21:38, 46:48, 48:07
01:27 Australian Raven 01:37 International 'S' series. 02:34 Definitely not a Holden. Ford Falcon AU series station wagon. 14:24 Not a rigid truck, it's a B double. The front tank together with the middle three axles are articulated onto the prime mover whilst the rear tank is a normal semi-trailer articulated onto the first trailer. 17:38 It's a Marmon, known as a Max-Marmon in Australia (see bonnet side). Based in Texas, closed down in 1997. 18:18 Correct, it's a ballast box. Hauls special outsized loads. 23:58 Out here more like Mad Max's trucking company. 25:39 It did not drive on the "sidewalk" - here called a footpath. Those red triangular paved areas are traffic islands. 38:40 Comments elsewhere suggest a Detroit Diesel 2-stroke. 44:23 Looks like a Ford Louisville, similar to Mack R series. This is a common setup for tippers, known as a 'truck and dog'. 46:46 Currently running on the Bellarine Railway south-west of Melbourne. 50:14 Commer Superpoise (Q-series) - pre 1957 model. British, established 1905, bought by Chrysler 1967 and defunct 1979. 51:00 Not a truck, a mobile crane. 54:38 The red light confirms the stop sign. They're crossing two lanes of a four lane motorway before heading right and south.
Absolutely outstanding very well done. I enjoyed this very much our T.V. is out tonight due to snow storm and enjoyed watching this very very much thanks for posting!!

When i worked at wood industrial projects, i had a job description to control unit calls name max truck.. It designed by max truck vehicle and it had 10000 hp, i guess, it's so strong to load wood log heavy in 10 to 12 round trips for one day langsiring.. Wow..
Another place for long truck combinations is Brazil, probably second only to Australia. For regular over the road trucks, tractor plus two trailers, total 9 axles and 30 meters long. The central region of the country is adopting 12 axles.
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing. To me, Australian trucks are also interesting because we can't see most of them anywhere else. (Sorry for my english!)

Good evening from Algeria.

+Andy Moon I try to get the sound as best I can as well. I only put music over stuff when the audio is no good. Re the putting models names. It would take a bit of time to try and track down slight differences in some truck models, and I'd be forever getting corrected on it…the internet has no shortage of experts to point these things out when you get something wrong !!
@@thermidorlevrai65 We used to have them here in the UK, when I was a kid my Dad drove a few ERF's and Fodens with jake brakes, now most trucks just seem to have an exhaust brake or some like Scania have retarders, Volvo's use their own version of a jake brake i believe but the exhaust systems have so many silencers and emission control systems that they sound like a vacuum cleaner lol
If you're talking about Kenworth and such, they're all manufactured in Australia to Australian specs (heavier duty than American) under licence from Paccar.
@@StaffordMagnus didn't say anything about their specs. What happened with the truck companies there probably it's the same like GM did with Holdens. European rebadged Opels filling the AU requirements when it comes to specs. And the rest of having Warren Michigan's engines and other stuff. Surely they gotta have different specs. Just by looking the video though, you have the feeling that they're rwd versions of the Americans.
@@yipas Australia has never had any indigenous manufacturing on a large scale, all of our prime movers have been either imported or locally produced under licence. To call them right hand drive versions of American trucks is only telling part of the story, externally, sure they're pretty much identical - underneath the bodywork is where you find the 'Australian' part of them. Heavier chassis and suspension, heavier turntables, larger radiators, icepacks fitted instead of heaters, basically anything to help it deal with the rough roads and heat of Australia.
I believe that you could cite the places of travel through the Autralian territory, but above all I have attended several times and I do not feel fully satisfied, I want to see more . Greeting from Brazil
