What a great post! I love the old school trucking songs. The only comment is the pics went by too fast. I was stopping it on almost every pic to take a good look at them.
How much fuel do those burn fuel l/100km or MPG when at full load and speed? I have designed aerodynamic hubcap model called FleXcap which would have huge effect on those trains fuel consumption figures. My estimation is that over 32 tires and speed 100km/h fuel savings would be about 6 percent. Check out my video to see how easy it is to use.
This is crazy! I live in california and if EVER i MIGHT see a truck with two trailers (that are smaller than a reg 1 size trailer) i think its awesome. If i ever saw one of these i might crap my pants. : /
@FluffyPinkStuffy Yo bro i agree with you i get excited if i see 2 small trailers in California but you can't compare CALI 2 Australia we are way more populated over hear and have major traffic issues plus california limits the polutants idk if you noticed but truckers in california can only go 65mph max but in nevada or kansas if the highwayy is 75 mph which most are over der truckers go that speed im trying 2 say can't compare cali 2 other states or countrys
@MyDawgSnoopyHasA6pak ooo i did not know this was from AUS , pretty neat! Oh dang, im taking a trip there for Christmas this year, i hope i see one! ima take a bunh of pics. Also, i didnt know cali limited pollution, i live by LA and you can see the dirt in the air : /
@FluffyPinkStuffy -- if your far enough from civilization. I happened to be 1800 miles from Perth. You may see a road train one a week go through your little part of Oz.
@harri38 Some states allow triple 40" trailers (120 feet plus another 25 or so for the tractor) but most allow double 53" trailers only( 106" plus tractor). Either way, your passenger car would be toast in a crash, so please yield to them.Been driving for 7 years and never killed anyone!!!! YET. Happy motoring!!!
The theory is that if you hit a large animal, there won't be too much damage to the truck.
I hit a f***ing great moose coming out of the NWT one night, and it bent the bars right up against the hood, but there was no actual damage to the truck, even though I hit the beast at 100km/h. I trashed a Mack on a medium sized buffalo at less than 30 km/h. Bits of the hood went through the rad, and the buffalo just wandered off.
@XSimulatorX Why ask such a really simple qustion. I typed the exact words you used into google ... and hundreds of answers .. Think..Then Google .. Only then Post
love it...driven trucks in us...macks....kw,s and internatanals...get me a job ....i have my 13 year old boy whith me and have to think obout....i am english....here in us....thanks..
Normal engine HP is 500-600 hp some newer CAT acert and cummins bang out to 625hp, most if not all would be 18 speed road rangers made by eaton, and weights 110 - 130 tonne avg for fuel tankers... 53 meters in length
@oztindog Thats not a spectacular amount of hp,but i think that because they have got massive cubic capacity on the engines,theyr torque should be sky high.Not to mention,that they are diesel.
Nice, but in most European Countries the regulations allow ony 1 trailer. And most of the trucks are between 400 and 500hp. And I am starting to wonder how big is the engine on a road train.
Well they have the same engines i believe their transmissions are just geared lower for start up cause once it's moving it doesn't take much to keep it moving on flat ground
Absolutely correct. Saw road trains and talked to drivers when in Australia a few years ago. Most if not all are big American-made tractors. Road trains are almost exclusive to the Australian outback, where there is little to hit and almost no hills. They are 'broken down' into individual units as they approach cities.
Know this: Australia is close in size to the US, but almost all the population lives on the east and west coasts. Only one train line across, so road trains are efficient.
Complete guess but im sure that most of those trucks are in that same area, however because of their diesel engines the torque that they get like most any other trucks is insane complete guess would be over 1k square pounds. Basicly the normal truck engines that you see on the road are capable of handling much more than the one trailer that they are normally made to pull
@MyChoiceZildjian -- Its not only for cattle, but I have seen whats left of kangaroos, or whatever else that is unfortunately crossing the path of a RT, after being hit and there isnt much left...
@ratratrati well I'm sorry mate, I'm australia too, and these are bull bars, a roo bar is just a little tiny thing, not too different from a nudge bar, these are bull bars!!
ididnt realise they used scanias for road trains i thought they were the sole teritory of big macks and kenworths.
