If I were to wake up in Australia I be confused whether if i'm in America or there. Cause of how some the buildings, road signs and scenery looks is how America looks in some place. The only way I would be able to tell if i'm in Australia is look at the stoplights, road painting, and see traffic driving on the left hand side instead of the right. This haul was cool and the engine sounds amazing.
Pretty Cool, I have done 3 of those things. 👍 I have run all types of Cranes, driven trucks hauling heavy equipment and crane parts... And I have been to Melbourne, not bad for a North Carolina bloke... 😜😎
A Kenworth cabover semi, wow over here in the USA I haven't seen one of those on the road since the late-1980s. I didn't know Kenworth still makes cabover semis.
What a stunningly beautiful Kenworth & Drake rig! Seems to me that the paintjob is very reminiscent of the H.H.A. colour scheme? Keep your fantastic videos coming, I've loved them all!
I love trucks, and I love trains. Put them together...BINGO! Great video! (The thought occurred to me, however, why didn't they just run the engine down on the rails? Couldn't be any more expensive, could it?) Thanks, mate!
Paul Edstock The rails between Lilydale and Yarra Glen have been removed as have many of the bridges. If you had a spare 50 million or so you could have put that all back. Otherwise ... road transport.
I just know this for the tracks and bridges we're all Thor up but that's our government it's cheaper and more green to run things all by train China does that train ride from DC to California would be a lot cheaper or train rides to Florida which they do use
Looks like a Clyde built G12 Locomotive. NZR had 10 Clyde Australia built G12's (DA's) & the other 133 were built by GM in the US & Canada. Alot were rebuilt as G22's (DC's) in the late 70's early 80's.
@@absentjake123 NZR had 15 G8's (DB's) built by GM Canada delivered in 1965 but had the same AIA bogies as NZR G12's. 12 were rebuilt as DBR's similar to the DC's in the early 80's by Clyde Australia.
As a lorry driver in late 1950. Larry and trailer 60'' in length carrying 16 ton on lorry 7 ton on the trailer, driver and his offside hand balled load on and off - Top speed 22 miles per hour and no motorway road just A and B roads and only synchromesh gearbox, double clutch every gear change.
+Joseph Landrut If you had a "synchromesh" transmission you'd have no need to double clutch. What you meant was "constant mesh" transmission. And you don't necessarily have to double clutch a constant mesh transmission through every gear, you can "float" gear changes, which the driver of this tractor is doing. I've driven 8, 9, 10, 13 speed transmissions, and rarely double clutched my shift changes. Drove a 3X5 and didn't do much double clutching on it. either.
Great Action Shots! Excellent planning and execution of a heavy move. Such colorful tractor trailer and other gear. Thanks for sharing. What make and model of camera?
Thanks for sharing Steve! Great video. It’s been 10 years since this loco was moved to Yarra Glen. I assume it was to be restored. Any update on how that progressed? Thanks again, Stu
good,the loco without the axles may weight 90 tons(200000 lb),the truck make force,but has a good gearbox,sure 18 speed.In my country a MACK truck start carrying a emd G12 in a huge gradient,(with difficult) but transported it fron retiro station to La plata.
Great video, thanks for the profession filming and sharing it with the world... Am I allowed 5 comments in one go? ;-) 1) Nice idea putting a camera on the cab back; watching it on the road was the best part! 2) How many gears does the tractor have? is it semi-automatic (seems to change more smoothly in some places)? 3) Love the "crab" mode of those cranes (11:00) - wish my car did that for easy parking! 4) Reversing with a dolly (12:15) - not for wimps... 4) Don't walk under suspended loads!! (14:20)
Which do you think it was there transporting it because the wheels weren’t attached or they had to take the off the wheels because they were transported it
That Kenworth is GORGEOUS. Fantastic paint job and they've kept it clean!
The amount of skill these truckies have is genuinely awe inspiring.
Precision, speed, and efficiency, perfect
The crane operators were doing a great job.
The paintjob of the truck is awesome!!!
Awesome video steve, love the view from the back of the cab, amazing sound as well, thanks for sharing this
For its load its moving fast. I have never felt so satisfied
That truck is some eye candy
I was SOOO impressed that the Kenworth don't even break a sweat going fast towing that 200 (maybe) ton locomotive.
60 ton without the bogeys and traction motors.

Amazing video. Nice rig. I love the color scheme. Thank you for sharing this.
He pulled that load like an empty van body. That's a good driver.
See that truck crane crabbing into position was neat.
Great video! Greate equipment! Great story! Thanks!
I love the sound of that engine💯💯🔥
Musik in meinen Ohren. Music in my ears
Facts especially the turbo whistling and the engine itself sounds great
I Love The Sound Of The Engine It Sounds Amazing
Those turbos too, sound so good
Excellent video, some great footage there 👍
Great vid mate.10/10. Love the camera work.
Thanks for posting.
Thanks. Glad someone enjoyed it !!

Beautiful is all I can say, Just beautiful.
It’s cool seeing a cab over KW that isn’t in a vintage truck parade
Looks like this driver has done this at least ONCE before. Nice job.
Amazing video ! Greetings from Belgium .
Very impressive pictures!
فديو ممتع ورائع مع مهارتك في القياده ياستيف❤️❤️👍👍👍
Fantastic rear view footage great Camera work
That is one beautiful blue monster!
nice designs on the high way walls

super film - pozdrawiam!
That old blue kw is somebody's baby 👌
No.
I don't know what type of horsepower that Kenworth cabover has but it is pulling that locomotive as if it weighs nothing. That engine sounds serious💪
@Kenneth Boyer at least 600hp and 2050lbs of torque
The torque would be the most important.
This is a real, heavy truck !
A Kenworth cabover semi, wow over here in the USA I haven't seen one of those on the road since the late-1980s. I didn't know Kenworth still makes cabover semis.
Still heaps of them getting around down here in OZ....they are still being made, search for Kenworth K200.
@@emd645e3c wow unbelievable & I thought they became obsolete back in either the late 80s or early 90s. That's awesome.
Muy buen video
Los felicito excelente trabajo 🙂
Need some more long vids like this one mate! Excellent watch
Trouble is....there's a lot of work in making these, and it usually involves taking time off of paid employment to be able to do it.
Hello Aaron
That kenworth is a monster.
Powerfull
Amazing

Very Big Truck🥰

I think that it's one of the ex Jon Kelly Rigs Petey.
Literally this is something that always want to see a truck carrying a train
Amazing. Beatiful Truck.
Beatifull locomotives ! !
The sound of the engine and turbo👍

Wonderful!. Thank hoy!
I agree with all positive comments, it is a pleasure to watch. Thanks.
Now that's how it's done,,great job..
Love the Drake trailer 👍🏽
makes me happy to see a truck CAN pull a train
Boy, nice rig. They got some time and $ just in paint on that thing! Awesome.
Sharp looking truck
8:24 first time I've seen a train go the 'wrong' way over a railroad crossing!

It's traveling with a good speed with that much load.. Great
Great video outstanding

She is a clyde-emd G8. Smaller than a g12 last i checked both in weight, size and power. B-B vs A-1-A+A-1-A wheel arrangements.

nice work.....
I have a habit. Whenever I see a truck of this size, I always count the tires, the axles and tires on each axle. Anyone else have the same?
Yes i am
I count the wheel nuts and divide by 6
✌
That's a good theory. But this trailer has 8 tires per axle x 6 axles= 48 California style. Truck has 10 total. So it's a 58 wheeler.
.
My brother dose that
Great video.

Beautiful
Who would have thought The Truck is carrying its number one enemy...
There are dump trucks that could use that locomotive as an engine. :3
These and the man show more and very talented show
beautiful locomotive thnx for sharing
i guess you can now call it a ''Road Train''
No you can't.
Maddy to get the same as the most recent quarter of a sudden urge to
5 more than the original source
Jordan Park Road Train that not one. That a Over Side Truck lol
Jordan Park ppppppppppp
That's piggyback for you.
DARE. IT'S GREAT COFFEE.

The video seems more exciting when seen in 2x speed

Bom demais assistir esses baita caminhões transportando tão grandes cargas,como é o caso dessa máquina de trem!
good truck :D
Over 8.5 feet or 2.6 mt wide you are considered oversized.

Im amazed !! I wonder what kind of engine and transmission and maximum grosss weight can that truck carry
Your mom is about its limit.
+Kenneth Jones nice one lol
@ 8:25 thats different. a loco on a lorry on a road , and its on a level crossing. usually the other way round . eggscllent shots there.

Good
Beautifull truck.
When Diesel meets Diesels😍💯💗
alot lighter load without we trucks, motors, and wheels, but very impressive truck
wow amazing
That is a good truck sounds good to
Which do you think it was there transporting it because the wheels weren’t attached or they had to take the off the wheels because they were transported it
Do they the wheels off the locomotive for transport or is this one decommissioned
Why don't they say where the video was taken
11:17 Great German crane engineering
highly satisfying 🖒🖒💪
You have to admire that truck driver.s skill!
