The sun's setting in New Zealand right now---I know that because Rod Simmonds is currently sending me blog fodder! Anyway, just got time for a quick look at Biglorryblog's favourite webcam--the Fergusson B Grid webcam at the Axis Intermodal container terminal at the Port of Auckland. And what do I see? A real family get together....so what's the connection between the middle truck and the one in the foreground?, As for the two drivers I've no idea who they are....

Tom & Dick who are looking for Harry

Rod,

You seem confuzzled - I think I know what Brian is looking for and it has something to do with the trucks in the middle and the foreground!

They are both Ivecos - the cabover is a MP4500 (possibly with a Detroit Diesel Series 60) and the conventional (bonneted) one is a 6500/7500 PowerStar (with a Caterpillar C15)!
