Why are some of these trucks showing 'LONG VEHICLE'? They look clearly too long to get away with that...In western Australia anything over 30 meters must display 'ROAD TRAIN', that's why some companies like Boral keep some of their trucks just under 30m , so they can run as a long vehicle and use roads they wouldn't normally be permitted to use.

Excellent display of trucks, thanks for posting.

hey mate,

B-Triple's only say long vechile in S.A. they change over to ROAD TRAIN signs at Border Village WA / SA... im not 100% sure why that is,, im guessing its just law of something like that.

darogi transport express lost a road train in the great eastern highway fire,and shouldn't they have long vehicle signs for a b triple because the Direct Freight Express ones don't, they have road train signs, again nice GKR B triples, and a couple of good Jolly trolleys too, except the kenworth needed a wash

haha

yer, B-Triples must have LONG VECHILE signs in SA, they change over at Border Village WA/SA to ROAD TRAIN signs, the direct freight btriple (argosy) was having a photo shoot done (peter schlenk the photographer) and i was fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time, the K104 just had ROAD TRAIN signs on, as that was the 1st and only time ive seen it as that was on the B-triple

Hey guys. I work for a trailer Manufacturing company called Doepker here in Canada. We shipped grain trailers down to Austraila a few years back and I was wondering if anyone down there has ever seen or heard of them?
