That was an amazing video lads. Love the sounds, the sights and the whole lot. Huge respect for men and women that do the likes of this job. Some laugh though when you hear the Irish accent🤣
Really nice vid of the job, the scenery, things involved. Excellent camerawork. Not as easy to film all this during an already demanding job as it looks afterwards for the viewer.
Nice drive mate, your employer lucky to have you... There are truck drivers and then there's livestock drivers, a world of difference between eh. You didn't show enough of what's involved with breaking, loading and then reassembling the train maybe, but loved the sound of the engine throughout on the pull :) Great vid all up. Keep on truckin' and stay safe...
I Love Trucks. Thank you Michael this was awesome, i luv the ending the dog waiting to hop in the cab, no dog box4me boss. I subed up and are hopefully you'll do more filming - pleeeeease ty
Nice :) you got to do what I never got the chance to. I'm from Canada. Spent a winter near Toowoomba is far inland as I made it. Saw some road trains. Ended up working irrigation on a cotton farm near Dirranbandi. When the time gone to haul the bales to the gin, I got stuck on a picker while other guys got to haul with B doubles. I did get to ride in a crop duster in growing season though so that was cool. I hope you had fun! Overall I found it to just be a bit of a hot wasteland with people who wanted to bust your face in and then be mates after haha
Yeah I remember seeing up to 20 coming across from northern territory to Queensland at least half was by dirt roads snapped Off axles chained up on a couple you sometimes see large convoys when they are loading live cattle for export
Gidday, Russia and Oz are similar in that they are huge and the roads are not that great. Small population and big country breeds tough men. Hope u get to visit The Land Downunder.
I worked in Darwin for a while in construction and haulage. You wear as little as you can possibly get away with otherwise you couldn’t survive in the heat.
Far from good driving conditions 40c heat and wild camels buffalo and kangaroo's then try drive in to some of the stations to get the cattle it will take a day in and if you're lucky day out and you have only gone 100km and still have another 700km now your on tar surface you have no idea how bad the conditions are regardless I love the challenge
Design and build them here. Only way to make them tough enough. About 75% of the Kenworths built here since they started in about 1970 are still on the road.
Once you provide proof of driving with an articulated in Europe, you should be able to get a Heavy Combination licence which allows you to drive the same type of truck in Australia. You then need to apply for a learners Multi Combination and do your test for the MC. This will be done in a B-Double, after which you can drive the big stuff.
Hey, big truck high boy driver. You've really got a very high level cab floor on this road centipede beautie. I love that. I would do some like that on a SCANIA LK 141 and on a 111 L to install on these tandem trailer trucks a non turbo 1940s 30.000cc V-12 600hp CONTINENTAL gasoline engine and an original Australian bull bar.
The old split rims were mega dangerous no doubt. Daytons are a very safe alternative! A lot of commercial trucks used to run them, you don't really see them being put on new trucks but when I drove I had lots of different trucks and trailers that ran them.
More likely tubeless 1 piece. Split rims are not dangerous to put a new tyre on if you use your brains. No different to change a wheel though but when they get full of dust the spacer can be a bastard to get off to get at the inside one.
Drive safe brothers. Doesn't the floor burn your feet. I drove some in my socks but I didn't feel right shoeless so I didn't do it much. If you accidentally run over a piece of steel it could bankrupt you. I retired here in the states with almost 50yrs of trucking. I drove every type truck known to man. Be safe brother.
The best road video on UA-cam!! Greatings from sweden.

A great experience, you are lucky to have got that experience
Great video. Really enjoyed it.
Top video are you still truckin here in Oz?
Love to know the cost of transport on some of those "Haul trucks" oversize loads
Damn, imagine a full on convoy of these things going along the road
Yeah I remember seeing up to 20 coming across from northern territory to Queensland at least half was by dirt roads snapped Off axles chained up on a couple you sometimes see large convoys when they are loading live cattle for export
I would get a kick driving one of those.
And from the cattle when loading........................lol.
hello. I'm from Russia. you have huge trucks!!! it will be necessary to come to visit you))))) I am a trucker from Russia

Nice work
So this is where the shorts and flip flops come from into the trucking industry.

@@Mick_4591 Unfortunately, now owned by some chinese outfit.
Its costing me an arm and a let atm to learn the Road Ranger gearbox , already spent $3K , doing really well but still not ready for the asessment.
How do you go about changing tyres on a MC rig especially inside ones on the trailers? Im doing my HR atm in Perth.
its a hassle, there is ways to roll up on blocks so you do not need to use a jack but in the end, its just a hassle and heavy work
@@fraudieYT Part of the job..
Long story short, if you need to change an inside tyre, you pull both off.

That is winter
KW using different instrument panel in Australia. Interesting. Wonder why?
This one might be customized but not sure. Have seen different in others. He says 904, i had driven 908 n 990
That's the standard dash for a T904

Is everyone else also getting recommended truck videos recently?
Ya
Well yeah searching for them helped I guess?

It's so weird to hear that accent driving these road trains.
I'm from the Rocky Mts.--I couldn't understand half of what he said. I need to visit AUS for aa while and bone up on my Aussie accent skills!
y , ok very nice good thanks you have a nice day
Anyone know how the lorry licence works if you from the uk or Ireland? Can it be transferred to an Australian one?

Daytons. Not split.
@@codychickadee5095 are they as dangerous to change as split rims? thanks for the info.

The rim is one piece and is fastened down to a larger hub with some wedges.
