Cattle Lift at VRD

Bruce Honeywill filmed this documentation of a cattle lift at Victoria River Downs Station in the Northern Territory in the late 90's, catching the action and a time of classic road train history.

You see Mate? Our Aussie Truckers are the best in the world and the greatest too.

[@pilotmanpaul]

Will you look at that. Kenworth C500s and Mack Titans. True classics.

[@driver3025]

Best drivers in the country. You have to be smoother than silk.

Troy the Signature is at the same power output about 600 pounds lighter, 4 liters smaller and being electronic as opposed to mechanical engine it can almost certainly provide better fuel economy. That said, I absolutely love the big K. Best truck engine ever.

My first thoughts are: What type of bastard leaves his dog in the back of an open ute in that heat.

Tough Dog for the Hard Road.........Sooks need not apply.

You ever been out there? Didn't think so, enjoy your latte.

@@t-dog8528. Lived up that way 1980-1997. Worked at Ranger mine, Channel Island power scheme on a mobile crane, off-shore oil rigs, seven years working at Darwin Prison. Rode a motor bike Darwin to Perth return many times and I can tell you it is bloody hot up there. I also had two German Shepherds that I carried in a back of a ute that was covered from the sun and had good airflow. Just because a dog is tough it doesn't mean you have to abuse it all the time. So, go suck a dick, cocksucker.

How is animal welfare considered in a 750 hundred klm trip to Darwin in 35 degree temperature, none stop.

[@timcarr4155]

They've banned live export from Australia.

[@timcarr4155]

@@anthonyj7989 did they ban it and then it went to court and was lifted? I'll delete my comment if it's not right

[@t-dog8528]

You ever see a triple pull up next to a pivot irrigation with a cannon spray on the end and the bloke cools the whole load? I have.

It is sad that the animal welfare is paramount until they get to the islamic country of destiny then animal welfare ends abruptly.

[@stebarg]

Looks worse than deportation done by the Nazis. Imagine being transported 12 hours on that truck, having no chance to breathe the entire trip, and in the end, the best what you can expect is to be slaughtered for your sweet taste. Almost no one of the Nazis found himself guilty because they were so damn unconscious like these guys who drive those trucks and those who are taking part in this mass murder. Start thinking and do the right thing ❤️

Did an assignment on live export, found out that if you stop live export, northern Australia will shut down, be careful what you wish for
