Truckin' Up To The Alice

In 1959 McColls Transport had their first milk tanker built. For more than 2 decades it sat rusting away so we restored it and donated it to the National Road Transport Hall of Fame in Alice Springs.

At 00:16, the truck there isn't the Kenworth you did an earlier video on with the air-starter and the Cummins 250, is it?

[DingosGotMyBaby]

Yeah mate thats our little K121. Would have been a LONG trip in that old girl

I can only imagine how difficult it would be reversing onto a third trailer. At least there isnt 1000 pissed off Sydney traffic car drivers waiting impatiently for you to move.

Great Vid! Shows how far we have come in such a short time in Australia with our need for bigger and better trucks. On another point though, bet you felt like an Asian bloke wearing speedos at Bondi beach driving a single out there with all the triples and AB quads! :-)

@tweekin74 I live in the UK., we drive on the left here too. It's how we learned to drive so to us it's normal, I've driven on both the left and the right of the road and I still prefer driving on the left. I find it much easier shifting gear with my left hand.

I'm very lucky because we have some of the world's best driving roads very close to my house, I cut my teeth on roads that made an American friend piss himself when he was in the passenger seat, but that's another story ^^

In its day that little tank would have been a big truck. Funny how it looks so small inthe flat top.
