I used to go through Bethungra twice a week doing Cootamundra change overs out of Adelaide for Scott's Refrigerated. At one point a few years back,Bethungra was the cheapest place to buy a house in NSW

I hit a dirty great rock between the tunnels before the cutting was widened on a 48 class many years ago,it made the little fella shudder a bit but we kept going.

That’s the down line, it avoids the spiral.

It's truly amazing what the human race can do. When there's a single goal. Train down low + move up mountain = beautifully made spiral.

Great work Tones, the nice calming sounds. Anything that has a nose on it just like a truck is a winner to me but also i prefer the 81 class over the 82 class.

appreciated the bloopers tone - from the looks of the camera quality on the drone, you might've stitched yourself up by getting one of those cheapies. i got a refurbished one from kogan that cost too much brand new - way easier. love your work as always
@TonesTruckinStoriesКүн бұрын
Yeah, definitely got a cheap one just to see how it would go. I'm not sure if I will actually spend the money on getting a proper one. I just don't do enough footage with them. I don't think.
@ssm5392 күн бұрын
Why?? I mean just why? Why wouldn't you just use a regular truck and 5 axle dog, still carry over 40 tonnes and non of this uncoupling the trailer bullshit, what's the upside to using a B double tipper set up, can't see one meself
@TonesTruckinStoriesКүн бұрын
Probably because that makes the truck a one trick pony. You always want to be able to be versatile by the prime mover being able to hook up to any trailer combination if need be 👍🏼
