Kenworth cattle road train, Northern Australia. Pure sound!

Lovely gear change coming out of the river; don’t think an auto would of been as quick 😂

Kenworth trucks are amazing machines. Thanks for sharing that video. Greetings from South America 👍🏻 💪🏻🇦🇺

Excellent Paul. Thanks for sharing the videos. It looks glamorous, but I'm sure the reality different.

[@Paulo660]

Thanks Johnny, glad you enjoyed it.

Personally I think Australia has the best 909s/w900s!!! Cheers from the USA 🇺🇸 👍

[@Blandy086]

It's amazing how the two trucks show different cultures/conditions. In the US, Truckies have roads better suited to trucks and as such, the trucks can be long. This allows for bigger sleepers and lower cabs as the cab doesn't have to sit partway above the motor. In Australia, trucks are an afterthought. Roads aren't designed with trucks in mind (they are now, but still plenty of tight roads in Aus). As such, we need to keep our prime movers as short as possible, to allow tighter turning. This is why the traditional US W900 is this beautiful square bonnet, low and long prime mover with a massive bunk on the back that can be fitted out like a hotel room for the driver. Whereas the Australian "Tough" T900 series trucks are a high bonnet, higher cab, shorter chassis and 60" (max length) bunk. (there are some trucks with 70 and 90" bunks but they are extremely rare and don't operate on all roads. To keep the iconic bonnet, the Australian T900 Cab is raised and the engine is brought closer to the cab.. It's good in the sense that the Australian "9-oh" trucks are tough-looking. The front of the bonnet is roughly 1.95m (6'4") and that makes for a very commanding looking truck. But I have to say, I would love to import a US W900 with 84" sleeper... Just wouldn't be able to register it here in Aus sadly. To get around this, I own a Kenworth K104B "Big Cab". It has a 2.4m (90") bunk and is powered by a pre-EGR and pre-adblue CAT. I love it, just got it back after a $100,000.00 restoration and beautification.

Yeah, with a 4th trailer in tow carrying generators and dedicated fuel tanks!

When you see that dust cloud rolling towards you just get off the road ASAP.

[@simonbertioli4696]

Amazing trucks are they made in Australia...or imported American ones Feel sorry for the cattle all that dust and no shade on upper decks 😔

[@anthonyj7989]

Yes, the trucks are made in Australia. Before the trucks came alone the cattle were walked to the saleyards and some cattle from Northen Australia walked thousands of miles on stock roots (roads set aside for traveling livestock), and at times the cattle had little feed or water and for some cattle they traveled for many months and crossed two or more states borders (this was as late as the 1970s).

[@simonbertioli4696]

@anthonyj7989 Amazing, thanks for the reply... I shall pass that on to my granddaughter.

[@davidrhodes7655]

I think RTA brought out Hamptons

[@Howler61]

Engine in it?

[@trevorandrews9337]

You may not see that on your lifetime

[@clemnunn3832]

That won't happen in Australia rest assured be for I fall of the pitch 😊

[@ce9345]

All those cattle going to the slaughter house to become hamburger and other bovine products. The animal rights people are having a fit watching this video. 😂

Would a Scania v8 have done It as good .?

[@PaddyDaddy3412]

Yes..And probably better.

[@roadrash1282]

As a Scania man myself I can tell you no. On the tarmac the Scania wins in comfort and fuel usage but to go into the outback day in, day out that’s where the Aussie trucks win. The euro trucks fall apart after a year or two on the rough corrugated dust roads that spread throughout the outback going into all these cattle stations.

[@alsteeves2044]

Can you show me a Scania rigged for logging in mountainous terrain, such as western north America? Or show me a Scania or any Euro truck rigged up with gin poles moving rigs in the oil patch? KW, Western Star do it everyday. Look up Pacific or Hayes trucks. True off highway trucks. These road trains are in a space of their own. Two thumbs-up

[@flyovercounty1427]

@@alsteeves2044 Scanias are not sold in N America but most modern heavy oilfield trucks have planetary rear axle sets made in Europe.
