Hello it's 'rush-hour' down amongst the roadtrains! 'Dozerman' RayJay has sent me these shots and says: "G'day old buddie, Finally got all the stuff to mesh and ship you over some pics to back up my 'diggin Oz outta debt' phrase! Note the mix of tractors are mostly C Kenworth and out of a fleet of 32 two Macks ISC Cummin @650 hp and 18-speed Roadrangers into Susu planet tri rears, The trailer's are mostly Smith side tippers four-axle note the ten foot stance on the trailers."
"The Cat 922c is topping out a Mack before setting off to a 24 km flat ish haul to the train loader, tare around 150-tonnes as a triple and gross 350-ttonnes which gives the whole deal a good work out even on the empty retrun trip. Seven trips make a full day for these fella's top speed around 85km/h..."
