Road Train Across Australia - Newcastle to Port Hedland - Part 2

Ойын-сауық

I take a road from across Australia from Newcastle to Port Hedland. Along the way I tell the history of Dunedoo, Wilcannia and Sandstone in Western Australia.
This is part 2 of that journey. In this episode you'll see me enter Western Australia and drive through to the mine near Port Hedland. You'll see all the triple and quad road trains along the way.

    As a retired Interstater, its hard sitting here watching, it makes me want to get back out on the road but those days are well and truly gone, So I just have to keep watching and remember my time on the road especially the roadhouses you visit and I see the change from years ago, Keep up the great work and more importantly keep safe, cheers mate.

    I’m a borne kiwi, also Australian. Flies in NZ can be annoying but not anything like here in Australia. I have lived in the Pilbara for about 35 years and the flies are insane !!! lol. They are a bush fly, not the type assosiated with rotting meat. They are atracted to the moisture on your body.

    Jono, as you were driving through Nevertire I was reminded of the highway Patrols who would park over the railway line in the dip near the grain silo, if you didn't bring your rig to a dead stop at the railwayline, Bamm ....a couple of hundred dollar fine, they cleaned up in wheat season mno driver wants to pull 2 trailers with loaded 'hungry boards' to a complete stop on the rise up to the line, my pay suffered a couple of times although you usually got a heads up on the UHF unless you were 1st cab off the rank. Anyway mate great viewing, my left hand and thumb is making involuntary gentle shift movements at times in the cab shots as you swap cogs on the R/R. All the best, take care, as you know it mostly the other guy that places a rig driver at risk, maybe a water buffallo or camel in the NT, ........they're murder on the driving lights!

My younger brother went to Auz in the 1950's and worked for some years in Findley then settled in Sydney, but I don't remember him complaining about the flies, and I never managed to visit him there.
