This morning, while waiting for the "new" locos to be unloaded, took various pics of trucks, other equipment. If i was there for another one hour, would be flats out with trucks.

Hope you guys and gals enjoy what i've took. It was great on my grassy knoll.

First off, One of two Toll shipping(ex Brambles shipping) Roll on and Roll off, RoRo ships, Tasmanian Achiever

Ex Brambles shipping Kenworth truck. I don't know the number code for it.

A Western Star, Toll Transport Kenworth and a Scania

Maybe small, packs a lot of punch, used to load and unload specified trailers on the ship. Often containers are double stacked.

A tele stacker, a Ferrari brand!. Although its no prancing horse

HHA's immaculate T908 Kenworth "Bulliet"

HHA's Volvo "Swede"


As Mammoet says "SIZE DOES MATTER". Slowly collecting Mammoet 1:50 scale stuff. Mainly cranes!

Excellent, excellent Applause

I just seem to find the Australian stuff so interesting - maybe because it's so different. I love the locomotive pics.

I hope you'll spend more time on your grassy knoll!.



Scania V8. The best sounding truck in the world.

Was Qld Rail. Now owned by TasRail. If i could get to Devonport, get some cookie action. Getting moved to there, a 30-40 min drive from Burnie.
