ROAD TRAIN

[1979melly]

there not even quads ?

[huppypuppy]

ATS20 is a older W-Model Kenworth, not a C500 Series - the Mack is a V8 Titan, 610hp - the Freightliner is a old FLC112!

[fullysiktrucka]

Yeah they are big i drive a C510 out of Koolyanobbing Iron Ore mine, and that runs Twin engines

[Signaturegen2]

ahha come to mines in central queensland man! 5 trailer roadtrains with an signature in the chassis of one of the trailers and hauling 450t gcm of coal!

[huppypuppy]

The engine in the "power trailer" is a ISX rated at 400hp - the engine in the prime mover is the Signature 600!

[TARBABY71]

@Signaturegen2 yep,,, I been there,,but the ones I drove were QSX 19 litre cummins,,, at 600,, with the 450 pusher.

[TARBABY71]

[JOTA430]

WOW...COOL... mega machine this truck, congratulation por el video ejje

[einyaa]

Nice! In Norway we have a maximum lenght of 18.75 metres for a roadtrain.

[ozstickman]

Triple road trains are about 53 meters

[aussiekenworth85]

well depends mate style if u want your truck to look good or just the way u got it

all i no my kenworth T904 has fkin high air in takes

[wmichswingers]

Why are the air intakes so high up?

[gm16v149]

Keep the dust out better

[robbie5380]

to reduce the amount of dust they suck in.. alot of roads in the outback are just tracks

[dennismlns]

@wmichswingers They are upthere so the air cleaner will not get clogged as quick on those dirt roads.

[Mechknight73]

@dennismlns That's standard equipment on any Australian prime mover; for helping to keep the dust in the air cleaners to a minimum, to help keep ou the water (some of the roads can get flooded) and to help keep the inbound air cooler. air near the road is a lot hotter, especially when the temperature is 40+ degrees Celsius

[stinkingdog101]

I own a 2000 W900L with a C15 and a 18 speed eaton. I would love to hook up to a road train just once to see what it would be like. I wonder what the Gross limit is on a train with the max trailers?

[gm16v149]

Some places in NT & WA you can now go @ 180 tonnes (403,200#) on 22 axles, 4 trailers (2 trailers + B Double) 53.5m (176')long on normal highway

[huppypuppy]

These big rigs can be a max length of 53.5 metres and are restricted to an even lower speed of 90km/h - the biggest ones I personally have seen are two trailers at approx. 36.5 metres long.

[TurboTrucker55555]

thats Nothing 4 trailers are better

and the mack is pretty old

Kenworth T904 the best

[TruckinMule]

i wanna drive one...

[mattrulez77]

hey mate i luv da way u started that off & da music. keep up da good work!!!

[foxter5151]

wow! if i got a chance to drive it so...

[gzwbyc]

I'm guessing song's by Aerosmith. Sounds like them.

[gedebage]

If you saw 6 trailer trucks they must be short trailers. The maximum legal length anywhere in Australia is 53 metres.

[jaysetheace]

Actually, on non-tourist single direction haulage roads, there's no limit to the amount of carriages a truck can carry. I saw a 9 carriage timber road train on a Karri plantation in N.T. It would've been 150 metres long.

[jaysetheace]

Mind you, the engine must've been custom.

[fulltilt600cat]

Na! Just a 600CAT would be enough.

[jaybradk07]

who sings this song?

[peepls]

aerosmith

[Twinfire]

LOL ROFL......a CAT you say LOL, Cummins rules in the truck world dude. The red Badge Rules the road. btw a 600 cat cannot keep up with a 600 signature cummins, horses for courses.

[mattrulez77]

im sorry but on behalf of the rest of the world, C15 CAT RULES! and so duz da KW T904!

[rooooboy]

625 C15 Acert walks right around signature all day long! there not a taicking timebomb like you red piece of shit!!!

CAT turning mountains into molehills!!!

[uedude]

Why is front stiffed up?

[bizzopp]

driver probably dumped the air out of the rear bags

[noclafdrof]

yeah sorry, but they are small road trains. i have seen 5 and 6 trailer fuel trucks going across the nulabor (middle of Australia), now they are massive. but those trialers were pretty big, tri-axles are big! especially in the 5 and 6 trailer road trains. if you find any post them i would love to see some in action!!!

[bob1189]

na mate there only small there are 6 trailer beasts in the desert here in aus
