Peter Murray is back with a nice off-beat contribution."Hello again Brian, I see the old Commer car carriers in the recent Blog update, and a few days ago there was a photo of a single drive prime mover with a small wheel pusher axle."
"The attached pics show how car carrying has evolved downunder - and the others show that the 'small wheel' pusher axle is in use over here too."
Meanwhile Peter continues: "The pics are from 2005 and slightly earlier. In the intervening time - Finemores were taken over by TOLL."
"The trailer design is known as a 'Stinger' and the basic design has been around for 15 years or more. They are 12 car capacity units."
Peter adds: "The rigs are the same overall length as a B Double and operate under the same restrictions/regulations as B Doubles do."

"This photo show a B Triple which are (back in 2000) restricted to road train routes. The Australian car manufactures are all located in the southern part of the country - and distribution is done by road transport - as our railways don't want to mess with them. So a run to Townsville in the northern part of
Now here's a challenge for BLB readers what's the most cars you can get on a single transporter---and I need a picture to prove it! These Aussie ones are impressive as they have quite large cars--but 11 or 12 in the Uk is not unusual, though of course they're smaller cars-BLB
Can anyone tell me who are the main manufacturers of car transporters/haulers in Australia.
(PS - the French-Nu-Van units were using a Lohr ball hitch and not a stinger.....and they were quite partial to falling off the road....trust me on this one......)
Scotty!
