Reversing a Scania ROAD TRAIN

This scania road train was reversing up to a cattle ramp at Muchea sale yards.

Man if this had of been me, the cattle would be dead by the time I got things lined up...no easy task with three pivot points and frequent interruptions to your visibility... I really like this video..well done!

Cabovers from Mack and Scania most tractorunits 6 x 4 driveline 3 Scania 8 x 4 driveline,s with big V 8 engine,s and a safe stability during driving. Double stock capaciteit.

Good work there that's how it's done

[@Gokizzmass]

Takes ages to learn this !

No it doesn't. The secret to backing in two trailers is to first get your prime mover and trailers and dolly all line up at where you want to back in to. Then you start to push the whole lot backwards. All you have to do is steer the prime mover in such a way that the lead trailer and the dolly and the dog all stay as straight as possible. As soon as the dolly begins to swing, you have to stop and move forward until everything is lined up again and start the process again. Because you will always move backwards further than you have to move forwards to straighten the train out, eventually, you will get to where you want to be. I only know of two things that will perhaps prevent you from doing this. One is a short draw bar on the dolly and the other is trying to reverse the train down a decline. In the latter case, the dog will just wander where ever it likes.

The trick is to put your brain at the front of the A trailer , let the prime mover do whatever it wants . Then its as simple as backing a slow reacting truck n dog

I think he hit it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@stuarth43]

buy a toy road train and practice, this is not a joke

[@petedoggnz.6171]

[@boxhead7180]

So you've done it?

[@mano1283]

@@boxhead7180there is always one smart arse comment. thing with pockets the dolly drawbar is short and they move quickly and the unit must be dead straight to load through. its not as easy as it looks. thats why the over correcting. truck and trailers as in New Zealand are far easier to reverse

[@stuarth43]

dipstick stay in nuzild

[@robertcrawford7485]

It's not a road train

[@joeyscaniaman6391]

Its called a pocket road train mate and there harder to reverse

[@jamesrobertson130]

Nah fuck that mate I'd drop the semi hook onto the dog back that in then back the semi onto the dog.

[@ESPSJ]

dolly says otherwise

[@emptycoffin]

You're wrong.

[@paddingtonbear5172]

If its 2 trailers with a dolly , its a train mate . Unlike what gets pulled on ya missus when you are away being a friggin mudcarter . Cheers
