Manufacturer

September was the month for the heavy brigade to mount something of a charge, as it did last year. Total sales hit 1,200, up 107 units on August and beating the previous September high of 1,196 in 2018. The advance, however, wasn’t at the same rate, with a YTD at 9,104, below only 2018’s 10,361 and 2019’s 9,507. And, like the overall figures, it was some less-heralded names digging in the spur. Of the heralded, Kenworth lost 20 units on August to 269 but Volvo made good on the August dip to 129 to return to September’s 162. But Mercedes-Benz consolidated above 100 with 118, also marking a rising first financial quarter. At 96, Scania’s effort to return to three figures fell short by six on July but was up 22 on August. One of the more notable rises was DAF’s; the Paccar firm putting two consecutive months in the 50s behind it to hit 83. Freightliner took that hint, scoring 48 after two months in the 30s – as, on a more modest scale, did Iveco, to 35 after two months in the 20s. Sadly, former segment heroes Mack and Western Star languished at 34 and 31 units, the fifth- and fourth-lowest, below struggler MAN, at 36 another make pushing up this financial year.

Medium-duty In the scheme of things, and as befits the sort of segment it is, medium-duty had its recent record September in 2017 with 666. This was 11 units up on the boom year of 2018 and swamped 2019’s 622. Why worry? Well, this September came in at 650, 11 units up from August. And the YTD is at 5,360, which was above 2017’s 5,249 and 2020’s 4,836, though certainly below 2018’s 6,086 and 2019’s 5,673. So, things are looking lively. Isuzu rules the roost with 301, confirming it is warming to the financial year with consecutive jumps from July’s 210 and showing a better September than the previous boom times. This includes 2018’s 294 but 2,119 YTD lags three of the previous four years, if only by 19 on 2017. Hino hit choppy waters trying to bridge the gap. At 154, it is the lowest month of the past three, especially August’s 194. However, there will be some solace in the YTD of 1,766, which puts it in annual-record trajectory. But this is where Fuso comes in, not least to give Hino a fright. At 152, a strong showing closed the gap that had opened up to

around 70 units in the best September in the past five years. Add to that a YTD figure of 1,075 that is both in four figures and also its best in that time, and its sales staff have reason to smile

Light-duty The segment with the highest numbers has also staked claims on record territory. A sales total boasting 1,259 units is the best September in five years, beating out 2018’s 1,184, while a YTD of 10,552 is a five-figure score not seen in that time. Of the big three, Fuso, again, made its mark, with the month 22 units up on August, while Isuzu slipped 53 to 461 and Hino dropped 13 to 294. However, Isuzu’s YTD is 4,216, while recent years have seen it in the 3,000s at this stage of the calendar year. Hino’s YTD 2,477 has it make a mockery of the previous five years, the best of which was 2018’s 2,074, with Fuso, on 1,960, also ahead of 2017’s 1,840. There is daylight between them and the pack, which individually struggle these months to get into three figures but they did combine to do some of the heavy lifting last month. Iveco, up 15 to 91, and Fiat, up 13 to 57, did their work and other followed more modestly.

Family BUSINESS

Freighter keeps the goods flowing for James Transport

James Transport operates across Australia, relying on Freighter products to perform the task

Local Freighter dealer, Mildura Truck Centre, provides James Transport with dependable local servicing and new equipment support

We’ve found

Freighter to be very reliable

Mildura-based James Transport has trusted Freighter trailers since day one, over 55 years ago. Now in its third generation, the family-owned business continues to go from strength to strength, aided by a 50-strong fleet made up of MaxiTRANS’ leading trailer brands: Freighter and Maxi-CUBE. Transport is in the blood for the James family, who have kept the region’s essential citrus industry moving since 1965. During that time, James Transport has maintained a relationship with leading Australian semi-trailer brand Freighter, which flies under the MaxiTRANS banner. In fact, MD Greg James cannot remember a time when the family was not running Freighter trailers. The business specialises in bulk citrus haulage and tautliner dry goods, as well as refrigerated and bulk fertiliser transport throughout Australia. Sons Shaun, who is the general manager, and Aidan, fleet controller, ably support Greg. Both boys have been in trucks since the time they could stand up. “When mum and dad started up, their first truck was a 1418 Mercedes Benz, and their first trailer was a Freighter. We have Freighter trailers that are older than I am; including an old Bogie I reckon was built in the late 1950s. They just keep going,” says Greg. It’s a fitting tribute as Freighter celebrates its 75th anniversary this year. Freighter and the James family have both been on quite a journey. The business grew with the expansion of the citrus industry and, over the

years, Greg has seen many advances in trailer technology. “In the 1980s, we were predominately carrying oranges in what we called bulk fruit trailers. By the early 2000s we were doing 10–15 loads a week into Melbourne.” The last 15 years has been a progression into tautliner work, supported by a few tip trucks and tankers. From humble beginnings, their fleet has grown to include 17 Freighter B-double tautliners, 22 flat tops, five skels, as well as three Maxi-CUBE B-double fridge vans and three single fridge vans. “We’ve found Freighter to be very reliable,” Greg says. “The last couple we’ve bought have been custom built, with holes in the chassis rail for a lighter weight, custom tie-down positions for front and back hurdles, DG signage, fire extinguishers and all the specialist tool boxes we require. We are particular about floor height, too. On some we have a flush floor while others have a smaller coaming rail.” Greg says that dependable local servicing is also a big plus when it comes to choosing Freighter trailers. “Our local Mildura Truck Centre dealer is excellent, they’re very easy to work with, which is exactly what you need in a country environment. We have probably purchased half a dozen sets of new Freighter tautliners from them, and we are soon to pick up a new tri-axle dolly that has been a stock build. “Satisfying our customers is always our number one aim, and it’s something we’re very proud of. You can’t do that without a reliable fleet, and that’s what Freighter have given us."

North East Isuzu takes service to next level with major centre upgrade There’s good news for South Australian transport businesses as North East Isuzu unveils a major upgrade to its service centre in Burton, Adelaide.

We continue to offer customers the

very best service

and keep their downtime to a minimum

The sleek new centre boasts 36 service bays, including purpose-built ‘express bays’, allowing the dealership to offer unrivalled turnaround time. North East Isuzu dealer principal Tony Emanuele noted the original service centre had served the dealership faithfully for 26 years before its recent revamp, but that customer demand had outpaced capacity. “North East Isuzu has grown significantly over the years and so have the needs of our customers,” he said. “The new facility design was a collaborative effort. We’ve collected input from the senior leadership team at North East and coupled it with insight accumulated from our many years of experience catering to the needs of local business. “The end result is a sophisticated workspace that maximises space and staff productivity, ensuring that we continue to offer customers the very best service and keep their downtime to a minimum." The new service bays are equipped with overhead cranes and the latest brake and shaker machines. A custom engine and gearbox rebuild room and purpose-built tooling room are also fitted with overhead cranes, reducing intensive manual labour for the service staff. Most impressive perhaps are the underground heavy vehicle inspection pits, which make the tricky task of under-body

maintenance and repair significantly easier. According to Emanuele, the service centre was also built with the intention of providing centre staff the safest, most efficient working environment. “Our staff are absolutely loving their new workspace,” Emanuele said. “They appreciate the enhanced lighting and the extra space as well as having all their tools and equipment within easy reach in their respective work bays.” Emanuele noted that the service team were evidently enjoying their updated staff kitchen (outfitted with the latest amenities) and courtyard for relaxation during breaks. “A purpose-built training room will also ensure we remain at the top of our game,” he added. Isuzu Australia Limited national service manager Brett Stewart commended North East Isuzu’s commitment to staff satisfaction and service excellence. “With a reputation to uphold as Australia’s favourite truck brand, constant improvement of our aftersales support facilities is critical—and simply isn’t possible without the continued support and dedication of our dealers and their respective teams," Stewart said. “The new facility at North East is the perfect reflection of the Isuzu Trucks standard, with its state-of-the-art equipment and best practice workspace. “We are proud to have dealerships of this calibre representing the Isuzu brand and promise of quality.”

This 2013 Mack Trident 6x4 may be immaculately presented but is itching to get down and dirty again – and, at $115,000, is ideally priced to do so.

Burton, SA

With a 535hp (399kW) Mack MP8 engine under the bonnet, this 70-tonne rated unit easily plies its trade as a highway B-double hauler but, with the potential to be upgraded to 90 tonnes, could also have a crack at most other applications. Its two-pedal M-Drive automatic transmission finds the right gear on every occasion, loaded or empty, while the Hendrickson airbag suspension provides a smooth ride. Inside, the ample 36-inch (91cm) sleeper bunk offers creature comforts including a Fresco bunk cooler and a fridge drawer. The truck is adorned with alloy – wheels, front under-run protection polished bumper, and quad alloy tanks (with AdBlue). Other features include a dual exhaust, dual raised air intakes and ABS brakes. With 935,625km on the clock, an engine rebuild has given this workhorse a new lease on life. It is sold with a SA Roadworthy certificate but a Victorian roadworthy can be facilitated if required.

2009 Kenworth K108 Cummins ISC 15 – 550hp 18-speed manual 556,451km $96,000 Craigieburn, VIC 03 9998 4809

Now, half the globe away, for the second month in a row, we have a magnificent cabover Kenworth K108 6x4 to highlight. If you missed out on the earlier one, this is your chance! And why not? Sure, it might be about a year older, being a late-2009 build, but, at $96,000, it comes in at more than a third cheaper. The previous K108 did have some work done on its engine through its life, and this one has too. It boasts a fully rebuilt engine, with receipts, so you know what went on, and has a mere 556,451km on the dial. Now, that is not very much for a freight conveyance of this age. There are differences, of course. The prime mover with cavernous cab on offer here is propelled by a 550hp (410kW) Cummins ISC 15 engine – just 50hp (37kW) down on the earlier one – with an 18-speed manual gearbox. Underneath are air brakes on 46-160 diffs and airbag suspension. Gross vehicle mass is put at 90,000kg and gross combination mass at 25,000kg. Anyone with B-double or road-train work that needs doing now really ought to inquire. For those who missed the previous month’s edition and the fewer still that aren’t familiar with the K108, suffice to say we explained the sort of prestige the flagship of the time conferred. It was a flagship of the time and that hasn’t been lost.

TOUCH

For more than a decade, Western Australian transport specialist Freight Lines Group has relied on Vawdrey Australia for efficient and reliable trailers, which are often set up as pocket road train combinations and re-configured for optimal fleet utility.

it is extremely important to build

long term

relationships with companies

In the 1960s, a humble freight company commenced operations in Esperance to Perth. By the 1980s, it established a fuel distribution arm along with fresh fruit and vegetable operations. The business collectively known as Freight Lines Group (FLG) has since expanded into mining, bulk commodities, agriculture and specialised freight, boasting a team of about 210 staff. “The fuel business was sold and then Harding Transport was born with the fruit and veg distribution – this evolved over time to the company that I took sole ownership of in 2010,” FLG managing director Michael Harding said. “In 2003, I took over FLG in partnership

with Colin Danks and then I purchased Colin’s share around 2010.” Today, the business specialises in general, bulk, express, freezer and machinery freight, along with storage and distribution. Over the years, FLG has opened depots in Albany, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, Ravensthorpe and Esperance – bolstering its presence in regional Western Australia, operating alongside its major Perth distribution centre. With a fleet of 140 prime movers and more than 450 trailers, FLG can dedicate equipment for the length of a contract or supply as required for loads as they are scheduled.

mill ball containers, reefers and bulk trailers ride on airbag suspension. “We have worked with the team at Vawdrey Australia for about 12 years now,” Harding said. “To me, it is extremely important to build long-term relationships with companies and Vawdrey has really given us this in spades. Their Titeliners and Iceliners are great, reliable products with excellent backup service.” The most important features of the Vawdrey Titeliner and Iceliner trailers, according to Harding, are their ease of use, the quality of the builds and the fact that he has never had an issue with them. Vawdrey’s Titeliner is a sturdy curtainsider ideal for running freight day in, day out throughout Western Australia. Similarly, the Iceliner – locally engineered and

manufactured for distribution and heavy duty applications – epitomises peak performance in terms of thermal efficiency and high productivity. The trailers that FLG specifies from Vawdrey are standard specification, however, they are often used in pocket road train configurations for greater flexibility. “Our Vawdrey trailers always perform well,” Harding said. “The efficiency gains we see are from the flexibility of sending multiple trailers at a time to regional areas. Our fleet travels all over Western Australia and provides essential services to our customers.”

Diagnostics: Forward Vision

Riding the rebound Disrupted industry is facing a heavily accelerated recovery in the general economy This could get messy. The nation is looking forward to vaccination rates allowing borders to open properly and people to resume their existences to something akin to before the first Covid crisis. ‘First’, because the chances of Covid-19 mutations are particularly good. Some of our ‘leaders’ may talk bravely of never going back into lockdown. But if biotechnology fails to keep up in the face of a nasty new strain, we could easily find ourselves ‘back to the future’, as happened with the Delta strain. Something for companies to at least have a plan for, just in case. More immediately, against a backdrop of an entirely disrupted global transport and logistics scene, pent-up demand within our shores is likely to test the industry’s ability to shoulder the transport and distribution load. And keep in mind, some of that demand comes from the industry itself. For instance, staff and skills shortages usually filled by immigrants and visa-holders aren’t, due to closed national borders. As mining, with its deep pockets, surges once again, that shortage is becoming even more acute. Kudos to Western Australia for dragooning former defence personnel to drive trucks for the state’s bumper harvest. But there are only a limited number of them to go around elsewhere. Down around the container ports, here and globally, the container logistics crisis has a long way to go.

Rob McKay has been a journalist for more than three decades, with the last 25 years focused on national and international freight transport

As evidenced by the rising oil, and therefore fuel, price, the economic rebound is global, so shipping lines are trying to rationalise container availability in the face of massive pressure, particularly in China. But this will pass, in due course if not soon. How Australia manages its own development is another matter. Infrastructure continues to be the go-to item politically to show something is ‘being done’ to make the nation a better place. Shovelling cash at that task has been easy and, despite pandemicforced deficits forecast for decades, billions of dollars have been allocated. In its First Infrastructure Market Capacity report, Infrastructure Australia sees expenditure “approximately doubling over the next three years, peaking at $52 billion in 2023”. Consequently, it foresees the infrastructure sector needing 105,000 entrants, with about 35,000 vacancies failing to be filled. The question is, where will the other 70,000 come from? Infrastructure Australia is pinning

its hopes on innovation, efficiencies and coordination. Though unlikely, the first is possible, but Australia has allowed its aversion to the other two full rein and that will eventually cost us all. While that is more an issue for the ancillary side to struggle with, the lack of skilled truck drivers is industry-wide. And what happens if that gets fully out of hand? Certainly, few lessons learnt in Britain are relevant here, bar, say, the cost savings of aerodynamic trailers; an efficiency we still allow to go begging. And, granted, issues surrounding Brexit are half a world away. But blithely messing around with, or neglecting crucial elements of, the supply chains without planning for the inevitable consequences is pure incompetence anywhere. In the US, those consequences, in the form of truck-driver shortages, crimped its economy’s recent recovery. But across the Atlantic it has been manifest in fuel and, on occasion, supermarket shortfalls. The patience of a generally willing Australian populace to put up with restrictions until Covid vaccines got into enough arms has been tested. That would snap should fuel fail to make it to forecourts. Meanwhile, it’s not as if we are out of Covid Crisis 1 quite yet. The vast majority of truck drivers are sensible people. But, these days, it only takes a small percentage of the deluded or deliberately misinformed amongst them for a small interstate shortfall to have a big impact. That wilful few were never going to take kindly to mandatory vaccinations at state governments’ behest and now won’t drive. And there are murmurings of concern amongst trucking firms feeling the pinch, particularly in Queensland. All of this makes how the nation performs economically next year and how it gets around its endemic weaknesses in mind-set and application that much more compelling. Our continued prosperity means taking transport and logistics seriously.

Dogs and chains Funny how lockdowns can play with one’s sense of time. Those of us in the Victorian kennel feel like the Brisbane Truck Show happened in some sort of time warp in a galaxy far, far away. Still, fresh in the mind was the Janus Electric stand and the friendly, if mystified, punters passing by the vehicle pictured. Anyway, as we went to press, Janus general manager Lex Forsyth reported: “Janus Electric is proud to announce that we have registered the first fully electric prime mover in Australia with our interchangeable battery solution. This vehicle will be going into commercial operations at the Port of Brisbane, helping to reduce the carbon footprint in container movements at the port.” The next steps are going to be fascinating.

Certain British soccer commentators can often be heard to say “now, then” when something happens that they think will change the course of a game. That has always seemed contradictory. Is it “now” or “then”? Anyway, the term came to us unbidden on seeing Mack Defense’s new offering. It’s a Mack Granite with an Anthem cab. US logistics soldiers get the whole shebang, 13-litre 440hp (328kW) Mack MP8 engine, 48-inch (122cm) flattop extended cab, flat-bottomed steering wheel and all. Brings new meaning to the term “attack dog”. Woof! Fun fact: Mack Defense is based in Allentown, the Pennsylvania city that Billy Joel sang famously about in the early 1980s as heavy industry folded there. Seems they’ve stopped “closing all the factories down”, Billy. Let’s sing about this beauty.

Another instalment in the “Another partial success, professor” ledger. And you just have to be stoic to be an Australian rail freight fan. It’s a hard row to hoe. Port of Melbourne’s Port Rail Transformation Project’s second bullet point in the ‘New rail infrastructure’ section key elements is . . . a new road! Brilliant!

We have the wonderful folk at Brisbane’s Cannon Logistics to thank for the following, headlined ‘5 Road Rules Most Of Us Don’t Know Exist in Australia’. While the country no doubt has some of the best truck drivers on the globe, federation means immense and often useless variety in rules just waiting to trap the unwary. Here are the Cannon top five: Only beep to warn others of a dangerous situation. Or face fines of $50 in WA, $66 in Queensland, $161.19 in Victoria and $337 in NSW. Keep your vehicle locked at all times: sure, it’s common sense and most linehul drivers do so as a matter of course. Yet, step three metres away from an unlocked truck and you can be stung $40 in Queensland and $117 in Victoria. And if you did have something stolen after a moment’s inattention, that’d be to sort of insult added to injury many state trucking rules seem designed for. Keep your arms inside your truck. This includes passengers. In Victoria, you could be fined $141, and $298 in Queensland. Don’t splash pedestrians. We might find it funny but the wallopers might be of a different persuasion and $165 is expensive comedy. Mind your potatoes. Attention on this odd one comes courtesy of carmaker Hyundai. In Western Australia, transporting more than 50kg of potatoes in your car without being a member of a “Potato Corporation” sees you out of pocket by $2,500. Second offence and it’s $5,000. Apparently this law arose out of the Great Depression and the Second World War II to help regulate food. Hot potatoes, indeed.

Enforceable undertakings come to light Company heavy vehicle breaches spur compliance action Two enforceable undertakings accepted by the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) for company breaches have emerged in Tasmania and Victoria. The first relates to a mass breach by Zezt Pty Ltd on the Bass Highway, Tasmania. On July 1, 2020 a heavy vehicle operated by Zezt Pty Ltd was weighed at the Forest Farm weighbridge. It is alleged that the steer axle weighed 7,920kg, a severe risk breach of 126.46% of the prescribed mass limit. This breached the allowed steer axle limit of 6,500kg. In August 2021, the NHVR accepted an undertaking of a total estimated cost of $23,430. The tasks include: • ensuring greater visibility of Chain of Responsibility (COR) and compliance of contractors through use of the iPRO platform • undertaking COR audits in line with planned schedules • implementing COR training for distribution centre leads • dissemination of information regarding the incident on July 1, 2020 and providing a case study • introduction of driver Load Declaration Sheet, addressing whether the vehicle has been loaded in a way so that it is evenly distributed in compliance with applicable mass requirements • regular review meetings with transport providers to monitor COR compliance • all correspondence regarding transportation of products are now made via email instead of by phone to record actual requests made by Zezt to its transport providers.

Meanwhile, in July, the national regulator accepted an undertaking from Boss Logging Pty Ltd (Boss Forestry) in Victoria for a mass breach. On April 3, 2020, a heavy vehicle operated by Boss Forestry was weighed in Dargo. It is alleged that at the time the steer axle weighed 7,000kg, a substantial mass breach of 107.69%, breaching the allowed limit of 6,500kg. The drive axle mass group weighed 28,350kg, an overload of 171.82%, a severe mass breach over the statutory limit of 16,500kg. The load restraint fitted to the

combination that was restraining the excavator failed to meet the guidelines. Total estimated cost of this undertaking was $45,626 and included: • delivery of a COR training course for drivers and management • delivery of a load restraint training course • expert review of load restraint and mass management • assist in the development of a training and awareness program • host a heavy vehicle safety barbeque • produce a video to promote heavy vehicle safety in the community.

NHVR in freeway prosecution Four parties linked to Melbourne’s fatal Eastern Freeway truck crash last year are facing National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) Chain of Responsibility (COR) prosecution. Charges were filed at Paramatta Local Court following an 18-month investigation by Victoria Police detectives, NHVR noted. Taskforce Paragon was established to investigate the incident in which a heavy vehicle hit and killed four Victoria Police officers while they were conducting a roadside intercept on April 22, 2020. The company, owner/managing director Corey Matthews, national operations manager Cris Large and state manager Shane Chalmers have each been charged with Category 1 and 2 offences under the COR provisions of the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL). Connect Logistics was the company that employed driver Mohinder Singh, who was jailed for at least 18 years and six months over the deaths. The company was subsequently raided and his supervisor at the time,

Simiona Tuteru, faced manslaughter charges in relation to the incident. NHVR director of prosecutions Belinda Hughes said the charges were laid after multiple and critical breaches of the HVNL were identified. “These charges stem from an extensive interstate investigation by Victoria Police into the actions of the transport operator, its executive and its employees,” Hughes said. “This tragedy is a sobering reminder of the consequences that can occur when there is a failure to ensure safe transport activities.” Category 1 offences carry a maximum penalty of $300,000 and/or five years’ imprisonment for an individual and $3,000,000 for a corporation. Category 2 offences carry a maximum penalty of $150,000 for an individual and $1,500,000 for a corporation. The matter was heard on September 28. 2021 at Paramatta Local Court. Lawyers for the accused asked for an eight-week adjourment to go through the prosecution evidence.

FWO tackles Alpine Fresh over casuals Workplace watchdog claims two workers underpaid on award The Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) says it has commenced legal action against a Brisbane-based road freight transport company and a company director. Facing court is Alpine Fresh Pty Ltd, which transports food and other goods, and company director Mitchel McAlpine. The regulator began an investigation after receiving requests for assistance from two workers who were employed at Alpine Fresh on a casual basis as drivers. One worker was employed from October 2014 to July 2020 and the other was employed from October 2018 to September 2020. The watchdog said a Fair Work inspector issued two compliance notices to Alpine Fresh in March “after forming a belief the two workers had been underpaid the minimum cents-per-kilometre rate owed under the Road Transport and Distribution Award (Long Distance Operations) 2010 and the Road Transport and Distribution Award (Long Distance Operations) 2020”. It is alleged one of the workers was also underpaid casual loading rates under the Road Transport and Distribution Award 2010 and Road Transport and Distribution Award 2020. The FWO alleges the company, without reasonable excuse, failed to comply with the compliance notices, which required it to calculate and back-pay the workers’ outstanding entitlements. It is also alleged

McAlpine was involved in the contraventions. Acting FWO Kristen Hannah said the regulator would continue to enforce workplace laws and take businesses to court where lawful requests around fair work are not complied with. “Where employers do not comply, we will take appropriate action to protect employees. A court can order a business to pay penalties in

addition to back-paying workers,” Hannah said. “Any employees with concerns about their pay or entitlements should contact the Fair Work Ombudsman for free assistance.” The FWO is seeking penalties against Alpine Fresh and McAlpine for allegedly failing to comply with the two compliance notices. The company faces a maximum penalty of up to $33,300 for each alleged contravention, while McAlpine faces a maximum penalty of up to $6,600 for each alleged contravention. The regulator is also seeking an order for the company to comply with the compliance notices, which includes rectifying any underpayments in full, plus interest and superannuation. A directions hearing is listed in the Federal Circuit and Family Court in Brisbane on October 8.

Trucks grounded during Victoria Police operation Duel Victoria Police has provided insight into Operation Duel on the Princes Highway at Waurn Ponds, which took place in September. Though the blitz saw relatively few egregious offences, three trucks were found to have major hazards. Operation Duel, which ran on Wednesday, September 15, targeted truck roadworthiness and involved four highway patrol units, with assistance from the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR). Three of 55 trucks had major defects, including a cracked wheel, damaged tyres, a structurally unsound trailer and faulty brakes, and were grounded immediately until they could be repaired at the scene or towed. Police issued six on-the-spot infringement notices to truck drivers on the day, one of which was issued to the driver of a car carrier who failed to secure the rear vehicle, meaning it was secured only with its handbrake.

Eight trucks were found to be unroadworthy due to minor defects such as cracked windscreens, tyres in need of replacement, suspension wear and tear, and poor lighting. Two drivers were caught behind the wheel while suspended and will be charged via summons to face court at a later date. “Unroadworthy and dangerous trucks pose an enormous threat to the safety of all road users, and police are determined to stop them in their tracks,” Greater Geelong Highway Patrol senior sergeant Craig Stevens said. “It’s pleasing to see few trucks grounded during this latest safety operation in the Geelong area, but three dangerous trucks on our roads is three too many. “Highway patrol units from across the Geelong region will continue to conduct similar operations on a regular basis to ensure everyone on our roads gets home safely.”

Vellex announces NSW Freightlines acquisition Vella family entities join forces to bolster NSW operations Vellex Logistics has purchased NSW Freightlines, a family-owned transport and logistics business located in Ingleburn. NSW Frieghtlines notes it started in 1970 as an owner-driver operation, run by the husband-and-wife team of Joe and Elizabeth Vella and now son Michael. The corresponding Vella-family Vellex operation, headed by Road Freight NSW (RFNSW) chair Austin Vella, was established in 1985 and operates facilities along the eastern seaboard and South Australia. The acquisition for an undisclosed sum bolsters its NSW footprint and adds about 30 prime movers and over 50 trailers, according to the NSW Freightlines website.

“The current owners, Joe, Elizabeth and Michael, have assisted greatly with the integration and handover and we wish them the very best for the future,” Vellex noted on social media. “The acquisition will provide us with much needed additional operational space in Sydney, and additional equipment to complement our current fleet, as well as allowing us to expand our service offering to include wharf and container cartage. “The staff of NSW Freightlines will join the Vellex family, and bring with them the expertise and experience to integrate the new services into our business.”

AST Services sells operation to Qube Logistics Port services giant grows in Port Botany with container haulage firm Qube Logistics has taken over most of Port Botany container haulage firm AST Services’ fleet and the majority of its staff, it was announced in September. AST managing director John Spyrou informed customers about the move, for an undisclosed sum, in a letter co-signed by head of HR and commercial compliance Damian Avery. “After over 20 years of running AST Services, the time has come for us to take a step back and have a much-needed break from 24/7 operations,” the letter said. “This hasn’t been an easy decision as AST is not just a business operation for us. “Every employee, customer and supplier has been a pivotal part of our organisation, like one big family. “Without your support, we would not be where we are today.” Qube Logistics picks up a top-three Port Botany full-container logistics enterprise that puts its container-handling numbers at around 100,000 TEU a year. It has three facilities at Baumborah Point Road in Port Botany, Banksmeadow and Padstow. Two years ago, the company spruiked its modern fleet of 74 prime movers, with a focus on Scanias, plus trailers at 240 combinations including 20 A-double sets and 14 side loaders – though an AST source put the fleet total at around 90 prime movers. AST was founded in 2001 as a family business and Spryou has built it up from there.

SARTA pays tribute to industry personality Tony Kuchel Business owner and road transport advocate passes away The South Australian Road Transport Association (SARTA) is mourning the loss of Tony Kuchel, who died on September 4. Kuchel and wife Anne established the well-known Kuchel Contractors business in the Barossa. The 68-year-old was a “leader and innovator and his rigs always stood out as gleaming examples of the best in the business”, SARTA noted. Kuchel began his career in 1973, joining his late father Max in the family tipper business. The business grew over the years and became Kuchel Contractors, which operates in the Barossa Valley and throughout most of SA and the eastern seaboard. Kuchel took pride in the presentation of the fleet and was responsible for some of the custom paintings over the years, and the additional Kuchel Custom Trucks business. He was a passionate advocate for the road transport sector, working to raise awareness about transport and supporting the local community, including as an active member of the SARTA board from 1996 to 2003. He was added to the National Road Transport Wall of Fame in 2015.

SARTA said Kuchel raised the notion behind the SARTA slogan “road transport – your lifestyle depends on it”, which has never been more obvious to the community and government than during the Covid19 pandemic. “I had the greatest respect for Tony and his professionalism and commitment to the industry,” SARTA CEO Steve Shearer said. “I am grateful to have known and worked with him and I could always count on Tony for wise

Sixth HVSI round funds 28 heavy vehicle safety projects Education, research, training and technology initiatives recognised Twenty-eight road safety projects have been allocated a share of $5.5 million funding via Round 6 of the Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative (HVSI). The federal government, with the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR), backed new education, research, training and technology initiatives that aim to deliver improved safety outcomes for the heavy vehicle industry and wider community. The initiatives include education programs for younger drivers on how to share the road with heavy vehicles and field-testing safety chain solutions to prevent heavy vehicle trailer separation incidents. Recipients this year include the: • National Transport Insurance (NTI) crash reduction program for the dairy industry • Livestock, Bulk and Rural Carriers

Association (LBRCA) heavy vehicle rollover prevention program (HVRPP) • Heavy Vehicle Industry Australia (HVIA) best practice load restraint and tyre management • Clearly Brothers young driver education program for sharing the road with heavy vehicles • additional health and wellbeing funding for Healthy Heads in Trucks and Sheds and OzHelp foundations. “Our government is focused on ensuring road users stay safe and arrive at their destination every time they get behind the wheel,” federal transport minister Barnaby Joyce said. “That’s why we’re investing in new and innovative initiatives that will deliver improved safety outcomes for workers in our heavy vehicle industry as well as regular motorists.

Todd Hacking (left) and Scott Buchholz

“We want every driver to be safe and projects funded under the Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative are helping to reduce the number of serious injuries and fatalities on our roads.” Federal Assistant Minister for Road Safety and Freight Transport Scott Buchholz said this latest round of funding continues the government’s strong support under the HVSI, providing opportunities for industry, researchers and community groups to deliver key projects underpinning driver, vehicle and community safety. “The highly successful HVSI has now allocated around $28 million to support 117 projects across six rounds,” Buchholz said.

“Projects across the first five program rounds have delivered beneficial outcomes in mental health, driver safety, road user awareness, codes of practice, Chain of Responsibility and driver education. “They have also driven the development, delivery and adoption of new technology and innovation relating to fatigue management, safety management systems, load restraint, safety cameras, seeing eye machines and rest stop areas, to name a few.” NHVR chair Duncan Gay noted the HVSI program delivers tangible improvements to heavy vehicle safety. “The Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative is funding key initiatives that help reshape how we think about road safety,” Gay said. “The program brings the community, government and industry together to deliver on a shared goal of safer drivers, safer vehicles and safer road use for all Australians.” A full list of successful Round 6 projects is available via www.nhvr.gov.au/hvsi. HVIA HVIA is hailing funding for its Safety Through Education project through the HVSI. The project aims to deliver two interactive online training tools covering best practice procedures for load restraint and tyre management. HVIA expects it to contribute a “valuable training resource towards improved heavy vehicle safety across the supply chain”. “We have identified two issues consistently over-represented in the NTARC [National Truck Accident Research Centre] Major Accident Investigation Report that we will now focus on: load restraint and tyre management,” HVIA chief executive Todd Hacking said. “This project will transform the volumes of written guidance information into simple, immersive and practical online education courses.”

Bec Coleman

“They will ensure heavy vehicle operators and other members in the chain understand their responsibilities and refresh their knowledge as required.” It is noted that the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) has specific Chain of Responsibility (COR) provisions that places an obligation on parties in the chain to ensure they conduct safe transport activities. That includes packing, loading, load restraint and vehicle roadworthiness. Equivalent provisions apply in Western Australia and the Northern Territory. While it is impossible to be prescriptive for the many different types, weights and shapes of loads that can be transported, anybody in the chain is responsible for complying with load restraint laws. “Tyres are also critical to heavy vehicle safety,” Hacking added. “There are many factors that can improve safety, from tyre choice, performance management, such as tread, wear and tyre pressure, and regular maintenance and safety systems can all improve performance and help mitigate tyre failures and keep road users safe. “There is limited information available on these topics and just about every operator can tell you about a ‘near miss’ experience. “This education course will guide operators into a program of best practice tyre management, including maintenance, rotation and replacement policies, understanding what to look for, how to perform

daily checks, and what systems are available to improve the safety outcomes of the most critical and most consumable heavy vehicle component. “We hope every fleet owner or manager will see the value in making this part of their onboarding process and build it into a program of refresher training that even the best and safest drivers should be receiving. “The courses will provide a relevant, accurate, immersive educational experience, on a proven platform, enabling successful participation by drivers and workers across the supply chain and will lead to improved safety outcomes.” LBRCA The LBRCA of New South Wales has hailed a grant for its HVRPP. It will support development of a “comprehensive and free online industry training program aimed at preventing heavy vehicle rollovers and crashes within the Australian bulk carrier industry to prevent loss of life or serious injury in our transport operations”. The program will be accessible and free-of-charge to all transport stakeholders nationally. LBRCA chief operating officer Bec Coleman said the HVSI funding would enable LBRCA to deliver the HVRPP, and thereby improve heavy vehicle safety for drivers, operators, and the supply chain. “This industry transport primary industry products to both domestic and export markets and, typically, these products are varied and are often high centreof-gravity and unstable loads,” Coleman added. “These loads, combined with challenging roads and conditions, make hauling these products high risk compared to most freight journeys in Australia. “The LBRCA heavy vehicle rollover prevention program aims to ensure drivers undertaking this task have a high level of training, understanding and professionalism.”

States move on freight jab mandates Flurry of announcements in past month on inoculation policies Half of Australia’s jurisdictions announced freight-related vaccine mandates last month. Western Australia, Queensland, Victoria and South Australia announced specific rules addressing entry for freight workers into their states. Western Australia From 12.01am, October 24, freight, transport and logistics workers must have had at least one dose of a Covid19 vaccine to enter WA if they have travelled through ‘high’ or ‘extreme’ risk jurisdictions, based on the latest public health advice. These workers will need to be fully vaccinated within two months of their first dose, which means they must have received their second dose by 12.01am, December 24. Regardless of where a worker lives, the directions will apply to them if they have transited through those risk jurisdictions within 14 days of entering WA. Further, these workers must also wear a facemask when in public, show proof of a negative Covid-19 test result or undertake a rapid antigen test at the WA border – and, if they are staying in WA, they must comply with the regular testing regime until 14 days has passed. The directions include, but are not limited to, freight truck drivers, pilot/ support vehicle drivers, removalists, rail drivers and rail support crew, where these employees are required to travel from or through a ‘high’ or an ‘extreme’ risk jurisdiction for work. It will be the responsibility of

employers to collect and maintain records of vaccinated workers. The directions provide exemptions for unvaccinated workers for approved medical reasons. Queensland In Queensland, new regulations came in on October 15. The Queensland Trucking Association (QTA) boiled the announcement into six points: • evidence of first Covid vaccination dose by Friday October 15 • evidence of a second dose by Friday November 15 or evidence of an appointment for one • evidence of a negative result from a test in the previous seven days • valid freight and logistics F pass • Covid-Safe plan • close-contact record sheet. Victoria Further south, Victorian freight transport and logistics (T&L) workers were included in a mandatory Covid19 vaccination order that premier Daniel Andrews announced. The mandate covers all ‘authorised workers’. These include: • a transport, freight or logistics driver • freight services (including postal and courier services) • port operations • air transport (including the operation of airports). According the premier, the move is part of the state’s ‘Plan to Deliver the National Roadmap’ and was instituted to ease pressure on the public health service.

South Australia has mandated that transport and freight workers entering the state need to have had at least one dose

Authorised workers will need to be fully vaccinated by November 26. South Australia At the time of writing, South Australia was the latest Australian jurisdiction to introduce Covid-19 vaccination mandates for the freight industry. As of 12.01am on October 7, commercial transport and freight workers entering South Australia by road must provide evidence of at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccination if they have been in NSW, Victoria or ACT in the 14 days before their arrival. South Australia Police (Sapol) noted that, on October 3, it emailed all current holders of this class of Essential Traveller required to provide evidence of at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccination. The email requested permit holders provide a copy of their vaccination evidence via email to Sapol’s Central Assessment Unit. “Evidence includes a copy of any document provided by a healthcare worker at the time of immunisation, or the Medicare certificate for those fully vaccinated. “Once evidence is provided, the traveller’s Cross Border Permit will then be updated, with no requirement to produce the evidence on a subsequent arrival if travelling on the same permit.” A person who is unable to produce the evidence may only enter South Australia with an exemption from the Department for Health and Wellbeing if they have a medical exemption from receiving the Covid19 vaccine or are pregnant.

News Paul Toole, second from the right, at the Raglan testing site

Toole is new NSW deputy premier New Nationals leader fresh from opening of Covid-testing site New South Wales regional transport and roads minister Paul Toole has won leadership of the state Nationals party and will become deputy premier in due course. Is a period of upheaval for the governing Coalition parties, Bathurst MP Toole reportedly won the ballot against previous state transport minister and current water, property and housing minister Melinda Pavey by 15 votes to three. He takes over from John Barilaro, who resigned from government amidst the fallout of former premier Gladys Brejiklian’s resignation. Barilaro was Minister for Regional NSW, Industry and Trade, with the latter two portfolios having been placed with Liberal MP and deputy premier Stuart Ayres. A formal ministerial reshuffle is expected to finalise ministerial responsibilities. In this new role, Toole is likely to face greater demands on his time to be in Sydney and less on the ground in the country. Toole was seen recently at the opening of a Covid-19 pop-up truckdriver testing site at Raglan near Bathurst – the 11th in the state. “More than 100,000 tests have been carried out across all our testing sites since we opened the first one at Tarcutta more than 12 months ago and, since the beginning of June alone, we’ve seen a 1,679 per cent increase in the number of tests carried out at these sites,” Toole said at the time. “These testing sites have proven invaluable in helping the freight

industry meet the challenges of the Delta strain – and make it easier for truckies and other freight workers to get tested and keep essential supplies moving across NSW and interstate. “We know how important the freight industry is to the Central West, and this latest site builds on the one we opened at Blackbutt Rest Area on the Newell Highway in Dubbo earlier this month. “The new site, located at Raglan BP Service Centre, 39 Sydney Road, will be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and will accommodate freight workers travelling along a major road freight corridor which sees around 1,800 heavy vehicle movements per day, servicing our communities from Sydney through to the Blue Mountains and Western NSW. “This is about making it easier for heavy vehicle drivers to meet their testing requirements and get back on the road.” He noted that, following feedback from industry, the upcoming Hunter Expressway testing site has been moved to the northwest bound Branxton rest area, which will better accommodate freight accessing the Hunter Expressway from John Renshaw Drive. Stokes gets transport portfolio Continuing the reshuffle of ministerial posts in New South Wales, the nation’s most populous state will have a new transport minister in the form of present Planning Minister Rob Stokes.

The move was flagged by new NSW premier Dominic Perrottet. After Stokes’s challenge for the party leadership in a ballot at NSW Parliament House – where he was defeated with 39–5 votes – Perrottet indicated his suitability for the job given his 10 years of ministerial experience. “When I called him this morning, he was very happy to take it on and I think balancing both planning, transport, and infrastructure makes perfect sense,” Perrottet told reporters.

Rob Stokes

According to independent national newswire AAP, he says the largest component of infrastructure remained in transport, a portfolio soon to be available after minister Andrew Constance announced he was entering federal politics instead. “So I think he [Stokes] will play a key role and is a perfect person for the job,” Perrottet said. What Stokes loses in freight transport industry experience, the industry will hope, as Perrottet promised, he will make up with strong ministerial experience, which should come with an insight into infrastructure through the planning portfolio. Since being parliamentary sectretary for renewable energy for nearly three years to 2015, he has since held the ministries of: environment; Central Coast; heritage; planning, as assitant minister and minister; education; planning and public spaces. Against that, his first three posts lasted less than a year and the others less than three years, though at growing spans.

Toll group admits being careful with toll road use Toll Group has clarified its position on New South Wales toll roads following Transport Workers Union NSW (TWU NSW) evidence to the state Legislative Council’s Inquiry Into Road Tolling Regimes. The union presented an image it said came from a toolbox briefing document from its Woolworths site in Minchinbury, dated May 2021 and headed as such. Under the sub-heading ‘Toll/e-tag roads use update’, the document states: “We thank you for your cooperation in reduction toll road use. This is a reminder to ensure you are not using Toll [sic] roads unless you have authorisation to do so. In most cases, the cost of the toll roads outweighs any benefit we receive from using them.” The inquiry heard evidence from a range of state and national freight transport and logistics associations, the union and Bus NSW. Trucking associations have been particularly scathing about the handling of them in Sydney. But Toll’s involvement appears to have come unbidden. “Toll does not have a policy to avoid the use of road tolls,” a spokesperson told ATN. “We regularly undertake route optimisation reviews where we use data from previous trips to determine the quickest and most cost-efficient route for our drivers. “Toll uses a mix of public and private toll roads to maximise time and cost efficiencies.” Toll’s name does not appear amongst inquiry-submission names, though many names are anonymous. ATN has sought clarity

on whether the company has any involvement in the inquiry. TWU NSW state secretary Richard Olsen said that the move from such a major company “was all the proof needed that Sydney’s toll roads have reached crisis point”. “It doesn’t matter if you’re an ownerdriver trying to run a small business, or a massive multinational company like Toll Group, Sydney’s toll roads are simply too expensive,” Olsen continued. “Quarter after quarter of compounding increases in tolls are just making the burden on the transport industry more and more severe – and now drivers are increasingly being left with no choice but to boycott toll roads, which means more trucks on suburban streets. “And of course, there’s the outrageous example of NorthConnex – where truck drivers have to pay a $25 toll each way, or get a $194 fine if they don’t. “It’s clear that coercion is the only way the NSW government and Transurban can get people to use their overpriced toll roads. “Something needs to change, and it needs to change now. The transport industry can’t go on like this.” Unfairness highlighted Road Freight NSW (RFNSW) pleaded at the inquiry for “fairer tolling of truckies who will play a central role in the road to recovery for the NSW economy”. “It’s time now for the NSW government to look at rego or toll relief for hardworking truckies who help save our community

through Covid with food, medicine, vaccinations, PPE and ensuring our water is drinkable,” RFNSW chief executive Simon O’Hara told the inquiry. “We have seen light vehicle users and ‘grey nomads’ receive tolling relief in one form or another, from the NSW government around rego and other things. “Why not for hardworking truckies?” RFNSW welcomed the review of pricing on the state’s toll-roads, including the potential for the introduction of distance-based tolling, hoping “more would be done to provide financial relief to trucking operators with everincreasing tolls and administration costs putting a stranglehold on road freight businesses, workers and their families”. For toll roads, that relief included a ‘per km’ distance-based tolling system, daily cap on tolls for transport operators and off-peak tolling discounts, “which could also deliver less congestion and improved road safety for the community”. “Different incentives would offer a range of savings and those savings in logistics and freight are much more than dollars and cents,” O’Hara said. “This is not the first time we have raised these issued and we are open to dialogue on how we can make it work to happen. “We want to focus on a remedy for our freight operators that is fair and equitable for the industry to ensure that together we can deliver constructive solutions for an essential sector that supplies so much of what we need day-to-day.”

HPFVs now have more options

More Victorian routes open to HPFV trucks Certain PBS combinations to gain in north east and central regions The Victorian transport department has added another 700km of high productivity freight vehicles (HPFV) routes to the preapproved network. The move streamlines the permit process for certain performance-based standards (PBS) combinations in northern, central and eastern Victoria. The new routes include the Maroondah/ Melba Highway, Princes Highway from Bruthen to the New South Wales border, and the Ringwood and Yarra Glen bypasses. “These routes provide more simple, safe and connected journeys by reducing the regulatory burden and red tape for the movement of key commodities such as milk, grain and livestock in regional Victoria,” the department said. “A pre-approved network removes the need for route assessments, simplifies the application process and shortens the timeframe to get a HPFV on the road, making it easier for farmers and rural exporters to move freight around.” In a note to industry, it explained that the routes involved are already in use, “but until now have been subject to individual route assessments on a permit-by-permit basis – taking time and costing money”. “While operators will still need to apply for access permits, they will no longer require individual route assessments on the published routes provided their combinations complies with DoT’s suite of reference vehicles. “The better the industry can do its job, the more efficient the freight task, and the greater the economic benefit to Victoria.”

NSW opens up Newell Highway road train access Full access for vehicles up to 36.5 metres long announced Road train operators can now access the entire length of the Newell Highway, in a move said to unlock efficiency gains for the movement of freight from border to border. The NSW government announced gazetted access would now be available to all eligible vehicles up to 36.5 metres long along more than 1,000km of highway, including through Parkes, irrespective of the cargo carried. Minister for Regional Transport and Roads Paul Toole said providing end-to-end access for all eligible vehicles up to 36.5m long and performance-based standards (PBS) Level 3 vehicles on the Newell was a huge win for the freight industry. “This is a game changer for people moving product along one of our state’s most important freight corridors,” Toole said. “We trialled this expanded road train access through the drought and again through last year’s bumper grain harvest and we know it provides significant productivity and safety gains, potentially reducing truck movements by as much as 40%. “Parkes was the last section of

Newell Highway in Central West NSW

the Newell where road trains were restricted but the trials we did with road trains to move fodder through drought and last year’s harvest has guided this change. “By granting road trains permanent access to the last remaining section of the highway without the need for a permit, it willimprove the efficiency, sustainability and safety of freight transport in the region which is developing into an important freight hub. “As we know, these higherproductivity vehicles are able move as much as 63% more freight per trip than a 26m B-double heavy vehicle, which means less trucks on our road, greater efficiency and reduced costs.” The move gained support from the National Road Transport Association (NatRoad), with CEO Warren Clark noting the important step for operators of higher productivity vehicles (HPVs). “Initiatives that improve access for HPVs and make the freight task more efficient and safer are always welcome,” Clark said.

Searoad inks deal on new freight ship for 2023 Bass Strait operator signs off on huge €100 million vessel Tasmanian-based transport company SeaRoad has placed an order for the largest freight ship in the company’s history. It has finalised an agreement with German shipbuilding yard Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft (FSG) to construct the new roll-on/ roll-off vessel, using liquid natural gas (LNG) propulsion, worth more than €100 million (A$162 million). The new freight vessel, as yet unnamed, will join Searoad Mersey II and replace charter vessel MV Liekut to operate on Bass Strait between Melbourne and Devonport, scheduled for the last quarter of 2023. Construction on the 210-metre-long vessel will start in late 2021. The ship will feature the latest technology, including LNG power, and have a capacity of 4,227 lane metres and capability to transport heavy cargo with a unit weight of up to 100 tonnes. SeaRoad executive chairman Chas Kelly said the company is continuously evolving to be the premium freight provider across the Bass Strait. “We’re constantly looking for ways to enhance our logistics solutions for customers and with our investment in this new vessel, the team at SeaRoad is confident in the future of transport between Tasmania and the mainland,” Kelly said. “At over 40,000 tonnes gross, this will be the largest freight vessel in SeaRoad’s history, continuing to grow our capacity, and providing more options for local agriculture, aquaculture and manufacturing industries. “We’ve been very pleased with how our two current FSG-built

vessels have performed, from both an efficiency and operational perspective. “We look forward to continuing our successful relationship with the German shipyard and their experienced staff.” FSG CEO Philipp Maracke said the company was proud to have brought the business to Flensburg. “This order by a long-standing customer equals an important vote of confidence in both this new model, as well as our established expertise as an innovative German newbuilding yard,” he said. “Our aim is to combine superior quality and superior life-cycle value. “With this new vessel, FSG and SeaRoad will make an important contribution to sustainable shipping.” SeaRoad has invested heavily in infrastructure and equipment in both Devonport and Port Melbourne over the past 18 months, Kelly said. “We’ve invested more than $5 million in equipment to complement terminal activities, purchasing new heavy forklifts, terminal tractors, A-double trailer sets, side loaders, related prime movers and our fleet of rigid trucks,” he added. “We have also begun a $6 million investment in new technology to streamline and automate our systems and processes. “Meanwhile, TasPorts’ East Devonport Port Master Plan will provide the space required for our new vessel.” The new-build agreement took a year to negotiate, with border restrictions requiring SeaRoad and FSG to sign the contract 16,000km apart during a video call, the companies noted.

FSG built the Searoad Mersey II, which joined the fleet in 2016, and constructed MV Liekut, which joined SeaRoad under a three-year charter agreement in April 2021. The announcement gained kudos from Tasmanian Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Michael Ferguson. “SeaRoad’s commitment to build a €100 million freight vessel for the Bass Strait route is a huge vote of confidence in our State’s economic future,” he said. “I congratulate SeaRoad executive chairman Chas Kelly and the SeaRoad team for their extraordinary commitment to increasing capacity for our growing sea trade and for the long-term investment in the port of Devonport. “The significance of this investment decision cannot be understated. “The new vessel will be larger and faster than the charter vessel MV Liekut – which in itself was a dramatic uplift in freight capacity for the business. “The SeaRoad investment decision is a demonstration that Tasmanianbased companies can compete in the national freight market and our state is a major beneficiary in terms of jobs and capital investment. “The boost to freight capacity will support Tasmania’s growing economy and population, with growing demand for efficient roll-on, roll-off delivery, which is predicted to continue to increase because of a stronger economy and population growth. “The SeaRoad investment highlights the strength of the business case for TasPorts’ East Devonport Port Master Plan, which will lift the capacity and efficiency of the port. “The $240 million project will provide a 40% increase to overall capacity at the port, which will deliver an additional $36 million into the Tasmanian economy through increased trade.”

Executive appointments

Cannon takes PoM reins Port of Melbourne CEO Brendan Bourke (above) is to retire after five years in the role. His position will then be taken by Toll Group CFO Saul Cannon on November 15, the Port of Melbourne Group (PoM) revealed. Bourke came to the job just after the organisation was awarded of the $9.7 billion 50-year port lease. PoM points out that, since that time, Bourke has: led significant programs and projects including the Port Development Strategy, outlining how the port will adapt to growth over the next 30 years; delivered a port rail strategy that will provide a new onport rail terminal to grow the volume of containers that move by rail; and managed investments of more $370 million. “Brendan has demonstrated outstanding commitment and leadership to PoM and I want to publicly thank Brendan for his service in ensuring the port continues to perform its essential role in facilitating trade and contributing to the state’s economy.” PoM chair John Stanhope said. PoM also noted that Bourke was instrumental in improving organisational operations and strengthening the approach to safety by implementing the port’s Integrated Management System. Bourke also made staff engagement a priority, receiving recognition as a Top 10 Best Employer by leading human capital firm Kincentric.

New Border Express CEO Border Express has appointed David Charlesworth as its new chief executive officer. Charlesworth is elevated to the role having joined the Luff family entity in April 2021 as executive general manager – projects and transformation. He spent the last 17 years at TNT Australia in various roles, including as strategy and transformation

director and customer experience and demand director. Border Express welcomed the “highly experienced transport executive”. “David came to Border Express with executive experience across transformation, strategy, operations and customer experience at a global transport group,” the company said. “David brings a wealth of last-mile express experience supported by operational and asset utilisation. “The Board is excited about the next phase of our journey, which will be led by David. “Border Express will continue to make positive changes in a dynamic market environment where transport experience and knowledge will be paramount.” Charlesworth steps in for interim CEO Ozan Kara, following the departure of Mostafa Kassaby earlier this year. “We would like to take this opportunity to thank Ozan Kara for stepping into the role in an acting capacity over the past six months,” the company said. “His efforts with the broader management team have positioned the business strongly to take on the challenges of the 2022 year.”

ACFS lauds Gallagher promotion Wharf carrier ACFS has hailed the appointment of Stephen Gallagher as its new Perth transport and depot manager. The move is seen as significant within the company due to it representing the internal progression of a long-term staff member. The company noted Gallagher joined ACFS as day-shift fleet allocator in August 2016. “Stephen very quickly acquired detailed knowledge of the customer base, drivers and equipment,” it said. “This became invaluable in his growth and success, which has seen him promoted into a new role. Gallagher started his transport career in Glasgow in 1987 as a transport clerk and grew his industry knowledge with

companies such as BOC Gas in the UK. After moving to Australia in 2008, he continued his transport career with various Australian players such as P&O, Toll, WA Freight Group and now ACFS.

We’ve come across many hurdles along this journey, from changing border requirements to extensive Covid tests and, now, new vaccination requirements. For this, the ATA and the Australian government have come together to celebrate the efforts of our essential industry during the Covid pandemic. To those drivers, mechanics, schedulers, managers and admin staff who are working on the frontline to keep our country supplied – thank you. Assistant Minister for Road Safety and Freight Transport and longtime industry supporter, Scott Buchholz, has emphasised the tremendous effort we have made. “Let me thank all of those drivers, transport operators, freight and logistics workers who, throughout this pandemic, have risen to the challenge and kept our shelves stocked and critical supplies moving,” Buchholz said. “The work you do is important, and

you have the absolute respect and appreciation of the entire country. “Thank you to all of those who have made the choice to get vaccinated and those businesses, big and small, who have supported their teams to get vaccinated.” Despite the challenging restrictions and requirements, our industry has done the right thing. In all the tens of thousands of

border crossings that occur every night of the week we have only had a handful of cases in the transport industry. One of my fully vaccinated drivers has had more than 65 Covid tests carried out on him. This is physically and emotionally exhausting but demonstrates the commitment and dedication drivers and their families around the country are displaying. With many operators and business owners in low spirits, it’s important the wider community recognises and celebrates the essential role they play. Trucks are responsible for putting food in the supermarket, medicines in the pharmacy and fuel in the service station. Everything we consume is brought to us on a truck, and our drivers should be proud. Moving forward, Minster Buchholz says the most important thing industry can do is to get vaccinated. “It is so important we all get vaccinated; I have had two doses of AstraZeneca and am now fully vaccinated,” Buchholz said. “GPs, pharmacies and vaccination hubs are supplied and ready to put jabs in arms and I ask you to join me in getting vaccinated.” As borders continue to tighten, I urge the transport industry to move towards getting vaccinated. We are moving into a world that is going to have to learn to live with Covid. We need to keep up the fantastic work that has already been done to keep this momentum going. We need to demonstrate that we can get on with the job and keep this country moving.

Salta details Dandenong South Intermodal Terminal operations

Zoom2u lists on the ASX Delivery start-up gains $8 million in capital raising Zoom2u, the firm Steve Orenstein (pictured above) founded eight years ago as a parcels-delivery disruptor, has become a public company. From those early days for e-commerce, Zoom2u has grown to become Zoom2u Technologies, parent company of two delivery driver marketplaces: Zoom2u locally and Locate2u internationally. One of the few listed companies to have a figure in its ASX code – Z2U – it reports that the initial public offering (IPO) was oversubscribed, raising $8 million and a market capitalisation of $34.7 million at the time of listing. By late afternoon trade, its share price had risen 115% to 43 cents in volatile trade. “We’ve been delighted by the response the IPO has received from institutional, professional and retail investors, which led to a significant level of demand, which was validation of the company’s performance to date and growth strategy,” Orenstein said. “We would like to particularly thank the customers and drivers who have supported our products to date. “As part of our growth strategy, we will continue to focus on investing to deliver an outstanding customer experience and explore ways to consistently improve through innovation, savvy technology and robust expansion plans. “Zoom2u’s vision is to be the leader in last-mile delivery both in Australia and across the globe. The first two months of FY22 have started strongly, with lockdowns in New South Wales and Victoria supporting growth in revenue, deliveries and GMV [gross merchandise value]. “We remain confident that the company will continue to drive growth and raise the expectations for the sector, delivering continuous operational performance for shareholders in FY22 and beyond.”

Salta Properties appears about to realise a dream decades in the making, but at a significant premium on an earlier indication. In August last year, the Salta investment was put at “more than $50 million” in a joint funding of the Dandenong South Intermodal Terminal (DSIT), with construction due to begin early this year. That figure is now put at $155 million and whether it is joint funding is unclear, while work on what is seen as becoming Melbourne’s largest intermodal terminal is now to begin before year’s end and take some 24 months to complete. As before, it is said the Victorian and federal governments will jointly invest $28 million on government-owned land to connect rail to Salta’s terminal site boundary.

DSIT is to be located on Salta’s 180ha Nexus Dandenong South Industrial Estate. The terminal capacity is expected to grow up to 560,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) per annum. “The Dandenong South Intermodal Terminal will be a state of the art facility creating a new benchmark in terminal innovation,” the company said. “Salta Properties is currently in discussion with a number of major logistics operators in regard to the terminal’s operations.” It adds that the “Dandenong South connection is part of the broader Victorian Port Rail Shuttle Network, forecast to cut freight transport costs by up to 25 per cent while slashing truck movements on suburban roads by up to 175,000 trips each year”.

Lindsay Australia realises freight diversification gains PN to provide ‘rail freight-related services nationally across key corridors’ Lindsay Australia’s growing intermodal activity is bolstered by a new rail haulage agreement with Pacific National (PN). Lindsay announced its subsidiary, Lindsay Transport, executed the contract with PN. The deal “underpins the service requirements supporting Lindsay’s expanding rail freight business over the next five years”, the company told the ASX. Under the deal, PN will provide rail freight-related services nationally across key corridors including between Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth and into North Queensland destinations. “The new agreement with PN solidifies

and extends our strong relationship with PN, supporting the development and expansion of Lindsay’s rail freight business offering,” Lindsay managing director Kim Lindsay said. PN chief commercial officer Andrew Thomson highlighted the partnership’s mutual benefit. “Pacific National is very pleased to continue our relationship with Lindsay Australia as they continue their strong national growth trajectory of volumes on rail,” he said. “Pacific National’s strategy is to continue growing intermodal rail capacity to support the growth of our customers and the modal shift from road to rail.”

The administrators: Part 3 We speak to three top officials helping to make the NHVR work, lastly with Ray Hassall. Rob McKay writes

Of all the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) directors, Ray Hassall, as executive director, statutory compliance, has the highest public profile. It would be surprising if it was any other way, given how many of his pronouncements naturally relate to issues that require explanation and action at the interface between the authority and those it regulates. As with the other two senior regulators ATN has spoken to in this series, Hassall comes with long experience and expertise – for him, in policy, including with the National Transport Commission (NTC), and investigations with the Queensland government. Indeed, he was considered a safe enough pair of hands to be NHVR acting CEO at one stage, in 2016. Chain reaction It has taken two decades for the term ‘Chain of Responsibility’ (COR) to trip off industry tongues almost as easily as “speeding ticket”. Yet, it comes as some surprise, given it gets several mentions elsewhere in this edition, that it is a term the NHVR’s main compliance executive prefers to avoid. So, all that stuff about the “chain” only having a couple of “links” cuts

little regulatory and enforcement mustard at its Brisbane headquarters. “We talk about the ‘primary safety duty’,” NHVR executive director, statutory compliance Ray Hassall stated plainly to ATN when asked if the lack of much case law was behind the relative dearth of COR prosecutions further along the chain. “Probably because my team is investigative and legal and, when push comes to shove, what the courts are interested in is who had a duty and did they satisfy it to the relevant standard.” That is not to say that the term is unworthy of merit – the term is used in judgements, after all. Indeed, the value of such terms is well appreciated but useful only to a point. “Some of the language is really symbolically powerful and it is in a lot of our marketing material and it does emphasise the shared responsibility issue,” Hassall said. “It doesn’t really helpfully define the legal obligation, which is much more closely aligned to the model work health and safety law, as was definitely intended. “Now, that alignment had consequences. Prior to the commencement in 2018, with the ‘reverse onus’ provisions, it wasn’t uncommon to see very large fines

Prosecution is just one option for NHVR action

proceed through court reasonably quickly because of the ‘deemed liability’ arrangements and the shifting of onus on a party in the ‘chain’ to say ‘well, there were reasonable steps, you didn’t take them, show us what you did, show us why you shouldn’t be convicted’. “That’s not the environment we work in. As a direct result of the choice by ministers, probably in response to the transport industry’s request for alignment, we have to prove beyond reasonable doubt, on indictment, if necessary, the matters required by the Act,” Hassall said. “So, that has consequences in terms of the type of evidence we require, how we get it [and] the form that the courts will accept it. “None of this is to say we wouldn’t prefer to have more matters in front of the court. Because, I think, more court decisions means more predictability . . . for industry and more for us. “As you can imagine, there are parties who disagree over who has which share of the risk. It’s in their commercial interest to satisfy that. “There’s nothing improper about that but you really need the court to

intervene to say ‘this is where the line is’ in a particular situation or ‘these are the principles you should derive’. “We are reluctant to express too specifically what they are because one of the main drivers of the legislation was the dutyholders taking responsibility for the management of risks that were within their knowledge. “That was the framework that was sought and a move away from ‘prescriptives’.” This means the major investigations unit Hassall is in charge of does not look at prescriptive offences and, to his knowledge, has not investigated driver offences. Rather, its focus is on the executive officers and legal entities that influence the decision making.

Other links Asked about prosecutions further along ‘the chain’, Hassall spoke of at least two underway at the time of the interview. One was of a Queensland resource company employing a contractor whose driver died at work, the allegation being that not all in the customer’s power was done to ensure vehicle maintenance and effective fatigue management. Hassall also underlined the importance he attached to the Big River Group prosecution, where that consignor was found responsible this year for a 2019 rollover of a truck carrying plywood onto a pedestrian island. It has been charged with exposing drivers, unloaders and members of the public to the risk of death or serious injury by failing to comply with sections 26G and 26H of the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL). The NHVR alleged the consignor failed to comply with loading and restraint requirements, failed to advise an overseas supplier of Australian safety regulations, failed to have any restraint system in place in the container, and failed to advise the driver and operator how the load was packed. It further alleged that the consignor had failed to take these measures since June 2017, during which time 189 containers were transported without any restraint. “We could have gone after Toll, we could have gone after the subcontractor – we’ve decided that the decision-making that was relevant to the breach [was with] the consignor,” Hassall said. “That’s going to have significant implications. “If we are successful in that, some of the debate around ‘oh, it’s come from overseas, therefore it’s outside the scope of the Act or the regulator’ will be resolved.” A success here would be a definite blow against the scourge of mis-declared or dangerously stuffed containers. Hassall saw the upshot of a court

win being: “If you are bringing containerised goods into Australia and they are improperly restrained, we would expect you to be subject to the full scope of the law up to and including five years imprisonment. “And if you saw that vehicle on that pedestrian crossing it’s be very difficult to argue that’s not proportionate.” Despite being revealed in March, the case is still in the preliminary stages, with a Melbourne Magistrates Court special mention down for November 5. Prosecution hurdles Fraud is a less-common way of looking at operational malfeasance as it is tackled by the likes of the NHVR. Certainly it was a new way of viewing the task for this writer but it has to do with the journey to prosecution. With trucking industry interface with customers and the pressures brought to bear, the NHVR finds itself most often starting at the basic level and building from there. Hassall gives the example of the confidential reporting line, its valuable tool to flag where things are going wrong, and which is most often used by truck drivers and their partners. Also, in the case of road accidents, laws beyond the HVNL are framed with driver responsibility as the primary focus. And if the accident is serious enough, community expectation is that investigations

will begin with those most closely involved, and easy to locate – drivers and their employers. And they will usually have transgressed as well. As Hassall puts it, the regulator must “effectively leapfrog over one or two offences to get to the party you believe is likely to have made the relevant decisions”. “And, in our experience, it’s unlikely to be a single decision. That will crystallise it. It’ll be the phone call on the day that says ‘I need you to drive anyway’. “But we have to establish that in the context of enough behaviour that a court will say ‘that’s a practise – that is a definite by-product of the way you run the business.” Hassall sees this as still a work in progress and gathering evidence can be hampered hugely in the case of accident involving driver injury and vehicle damage, not least given that police and emergency services have priority in such cases. “So, there is often a gap between when the incident occurs and the first time we can understand what the contracting arrangements were – so, it’s more like a fraud,” he continued. To turn a truism on its head, the NHVR is looking to show that ‘absence of evidence’ of primary duties being undertaken is indeed ‘evidence of absence’ – especially in larger companies, where, unlike owner-driver operations, informal safety measures are deemed to be inadequate.

Police approach Outside looking in, the relationship between the NHVR and the state police forces appears to have an element of contradiction. Police forces are duty-bound to enforce the law. That is their function and the industry players have endless stories of petty tyranny and blacktype enforcement. The NHVR is seeking to have a more nuanced and flexible approach. But Hassall warns against a blackand-white view or generalisations about those who are often the regulator’s partners. “They are not one undifferentiated body – even within police services, there are groups with different practices, skills and attitudes,” he underlines, name checking Queensland’s forensic crash unit and Victoria’s heavy vehicle unit amongst those with well-trained and experienced officers and noting NSW Police hierarchy’s evolving view on heavy-vehicle regulation. Whether the industry is at the mercy of a very hard policing edge, has too many that refuse to obey the rules or is stuck with a system that is outdated, complicated and in many ways still fragmented by federation, the NHVR view is that far too many truck drivers are being prosecuted and the industry is increasingly taking up valuable court time. It wants that to change, hence the recourse to options such as the improvement notices and intervention orders. Helping the cause of consistency will be conducting the HVNL prosecutions for the relevant states, with South Australia and Victoria so far within that remit. One thing that the regulator finds immensely frustrating is the idea that its prosecutions generate revenue. Hassall is emphatic that his organisation loses cash in the process. “It’s a loss,” he insisted. “Every time, it is a loss. We do it for safety.”

Diagnostics: Open Road

Taking a toll Actually making toll roads worth the charge has to be the better way Covid-19 has disrupted every facet of our lives and the corridors of power have not been exempt. A Parliamentary inquiry into how New South Wales runs its toll roads was shut down by the pandemic before it started in July and NatRoad finally got to have its virtual day in front of the committee late last month – via videoconference. Even if you don’t drive in NSW you probably know that all but two tolled roads in Sydney are owned and operated by Transurban. It has a similarly dominant position in Brisbane. In Melbourne, Transurban runs City Link and West Gate, with ConnectEast operating East Link. Last month, NSW announced a Transurban-led consortium had won the bid to own the government’s own share of WestConnex. If that’s not a monopoly, it’s the next best thing to it. Australian Competition and Consumer Commission chair Rod Sims was moved to warn that this will entrench the toll road operator’s dominance and road users will pay the price. NatRoad told the NSW inquiry that there is a lack of transparency and fairness in tolls for heavy vehicles in that state and described it as gold standard highway robbery. Trucks attract tolls that are generally three times greater than those for cars, and up to 11 times more than a motorist pays in registration charges. Annual toll bills of up to $100,000 are not unknown in Sydney.

Warren Clark, CEO of the National Road Transport Association

That’s an unacceptable burden for drivers who are mostly small businesspeople working on an average profit margin of less than 3%. One of my members now shells out more in tolls for a four-hour round trip from the Western Suburbs to the Northern Beaches than he pays a driver in wages.

Let’s make toll roads attractive to use

The tolls constantly rise using a multiplier formula imposed by the operator that bears no relation to the real cost of road maintenance. Tolling concessions are wrapped up in commercially-in-confidence contracts that have been negotiated in secret. However, there are solutions. NatRoad told the NSW inquiry that the state needs an independent

regulator to control tollway prices and look at the unwinding of unfair contracts. Tolling companies would be banned from hiking charges for better quality tollways unless they can prove they’re delivering improvements. Similar watchdogs could manage tolling regimes in Queensland and Victoria. They would evaluate pricing and make sure it is line with evidence and not back of the envelope calculations. This regulator’s decisions would not be subject to ministerial approval or parliamentary disallowance. Its powers would be wide-ranging but they’d restore fairness that simply no longer exists. Secondly, let’s make toll roads attractive to use. If governments and operators want to get trucks back onto tollways, they need to provide some relief. Variable toll rates for off-peak journeys are an option. So are discounts for multiple journeys. Toll roads are invariably the shortest route between A and B. They’re well-constructed and safe. They take heavy vehicles off suburban streets, lower emissions, reduce noise and relieve congestion. Using them more frequently makes sense. If only every driver could afford to do so.

Melbourne container logistics study lauds road haulage Trucking’s investment in staging and other services underpins port system Container logistics in the biggest cities has gained greater clarity, with Port of Melbourne Container Logistics Chain Study (CLCS) the latest report off the presses. And the fundamental role container haulage firms play in keeping the nation’s biggest port from seizing up has been placed in sharp relief by the study’s findings. The Victorian Transport Association (VTA), Freight and Trade Alliance, International Forwarders & Customs Brokers of Australia, BDO and national body Container Trade Alliance Australia (CTAA) all added insight into how the Melbourne system works. CTAA director Neil Chambers notes that the study “certainly highlights the vital role that container transport operators play as the ‘glue’ in the container logistics chain”. “Without the level of investments and operational practices adopted by transport operators the chain would not really function at all.” The central findings include:

• 82% of import containers are staged predominately via transport yards on their journey between international container terminals and final delivery to importers, while 40% of export containers are staged before delivery to terminals for vessel loading • 43% of import containers are picked up from Melbourne’s container terminals between 6pm and 6am, while 67% are delivered to import customers between 6am and 4pm weekdays. Transport operators have one eye on maximising efficiencies in their interaction with container terminals, while smoothing the mismatch of operating hours with their landside customers • higher productivity freight vehicles (super B-doubles and A-doubles) now account for 40% of visits to container terminals in Melbourne, while semi-trailers account for 39% • more and more empty containers are also being staged before transport operators can secure

bookings to de-hire import empties or deliver empties to exporters for packing. “The investment and commitment of transport operators in the container logistics chain needs greater acknowledgement – by governments and by other industry stakeholders,” Chambers said. “Investments in land, yards, systems, modern, efficient, safe and more environmentally friendly transport equipment, and people, have been significant. “Container transport operations are capital intensive, yet operating margins are thin. “Container transport operators deserve a decent return on those investments, just as others in the supply chain do as well.” The study highlights 94% of import containers have a delivery address in metropolitan Melbourne, up from 87% in 2009, while 64% of full export containers are generated in metropolitan Melbourne. The growth of activity in the western metropolitan areas has been significant, while

volumes are still strong in the south eastern metro areas. “This justifies the significant investments which continue to be made by transport operators in these areas of Melbourne to service the container logistics chain,” Chambers said. “The same dynamics of evolving container logistics chain processes ring true in all of Australia’s capital-city container ports.” VTA view Landside road transport operators copping the brunt of port-related cost hikes have been overlooked in the CLCS, according to the VTA. The report maps out Port of Melbourne container movements and helps to explain trends in imports, exports and growth areas, and to inform transport planning, land use planning and community amenity considerations. Whilst it contains significant and irrefutable detail, data and commentary, the VTA is concerned with what the report does not say

with respect to the road-based supply chain whose operators transport the bulk of containers in and out of the port. Landside road transport operators have experienced exorbitant stevedore infrastructure surcharge increases and funded the capital costs of increased freight volumes, VTA noted. “Whilst it was encouraging to see growth of 20-foot [TEU] containers through the port over the last decade, a 40% increase in freight volumes to three million TEU, and growth in the take-up of larger super B- and A-doubles in the ground-based supply chain fleet, wharf carriers have again been placed at the bottom of the process with many issues overlooked and not discussed in the report,” VTA CEO Peter Anderson said. “Vehicle utilisation through the stevedores is poor, and with a 50% or less utilisation factor there are added trips with containers being made within the port precinct and related areas. “The barriers to more balanced loading sit with the stevedores and the shipping companies, and not the road transport operators. “Under the current system, it is almost impossible to improve utilisation percentages of the port by road operators.” Anderson said the report also did not acknowledge the mismatch between the 24/7 operating hours at the port with the significantly shorter container park trading hours. “Empty container parks are usually only open during a 10-hour day, Monday to Friday, with customers usually cutting off dispatch and receival by 3.00pm Monday to Friday,” he added. “While the port requires operators to use the three-day collection window and a call receival process from the stevedores and shipping companies, the ability to match the processes in the most efficient way is quickly overlooked.” Anderson said commonplace

staging of containers in carriers’ yards had contributed to a slump in productivity, increase in cost and greater exposure to community amenity concerns. “With around 95% of TEUs staged through at least one transport depot, containers are being lifted up to 10 times, creating major productivity losses that are not being addressed by the port supply chain stakeholders,” he said. The report overlooked poor rail utilisation statistics at the port, with the 12%–7% drop in rail freight in 10 years an indictment on all the rhetoric regarding reduced cost, greater efficiency and community concerns, VTA added. “Rail is a major freight mover, but the intermodal system has not kept pace with the growth in volume,” Anderson said. “[The] Victoria International Container Terminal has been at Webb Dock for nearly 10 years and the prospect of a rail connection to service this huge facility is still 10–20 years away. “These issues may seem focused and concentrated but they demonstrate where the port supply chain is failing. “It is one thing to improve the port and attract greater numbers of ships but the increase in volumes still need to get to and from warehouses and customers in the most efficient manner. “The wharf carrier sector of the port supply chain has carried the capital cost of increased volumes through the port. “Apart from the inclusion of VICT and the introduction of Containerchain, there have been no infrastructure or process improvements over the past 10 years. “With such little reference and acknowledgement to the reform needed in the road supply chain within the port, the wharf carrier sector continues to suffer, bear the cost and battle against opposing stakeholders.”

New Western Star 47X coming to Australia Penske announces its intention to bring the new model to Australia Western Star has introduced its all-new 47X model, joining the 49X to establish the Western Star X-Series. The company said it is aiming the models at its purpose-built vocational line-up with a focus on pushing into entirely new applications. While the 47X is produced by Daimler Trucks in the US, Penske in Australia will be handling the new model here with an expectation it will hit our shores in late 2022. After launching the 49X a year ago, the 47X is the second truck in Western Star’s entirely new X-Series platform. As the official distributor of Western Star Trucks across Australia and New Zealand, Penske is working closely with DTNA in the adaptation of the new X-Series to local on- and off-highway markets. Building on a “long legacy of manufacturing durable, hardworking trucks”, the new platform combines the tough American heritage that Australian and New Zealand customers have come to expect with the latest in engineering advancements, Penske noted. “It’s very exciting to see the 47X unveiled today in the United States following on from the launch of the 49X last year,” Penske Australia general manager – on-highway Craig Lee said. “We are thrilled to be launching the new Western Star range in late 2022

in Australia, and shortly after that in New Zealand. “Our local teams here in Australia and New Zealand have worked closely with the Western Star team in the US on the development of the new trucks to tailor them for our local markets in both Australia and New Zealand, and will continue to do so. “Boasting lighter, yet tougher, cabin frames and steel-reinforced cabins, and with features including wraparound dashboards, our customers will surely be impressed when they see the trucks in person and step foot into the cabin. “We will continue to work with our dealer network to ensure the highest level of support is delivered to our existing and our new customers.” DTNA senior vice president, sales and marketing, David Carson added: “With the addition of the 47X to the X-Series line-up, Western Star is offering fresh, modern trucks with purposeful technologies to enable all vocational customer’s success. “The wide breadth of segment coverage means that there’s a Star for every need.” Lighter heavyweight DTNA chief engineer of chassis, propulsion and vocational engineering Tracy Mack-Askew said a key priority was to consider how to reduce mass without compromising strength. “From the cab to the frame

rails, to powertrain and battery configurations, we examined all features to deliver weight savings to our customers for greater productivity and profitability,” Mack-Askew said. The 47X is about 90kg lighter than the 49X in like-for-like spec and is best for weight-sensitive applications like mixers and bulk haul. All X-Series trucks have tougher, yet lighter, single-channel frame rail options versus legacy products. A new 9.5mm single channel rail option features comparable strength as today’s 11mm rail. Standard high-strength aluminum forward, rear and end-of-frame crossmembers further reduce mass, as does a new two-battery option. With the shorter bonnet and a wheel cut up to 50 degrees, the 47X further optimises manoeuvrability for work on construction sites or operation in congested urban environments, with an 8x4 on the cards for the region also. Cab fit for a king The X-Series steel-reinforced aluminium cab is said to further reduces mass by up to 8% while offering greater driver comfort with 13% more space than competitors. An optional two-person bench seat is available and a new spaceoptimised, in-cab battery box affords additional legroom. An optional roof-mounted

condenser offers maximum airflow through the radiator for stationary applications like construction and mining while keeping operators comfortable. All X-Series models come standard with operator-centric features such as a wrap-around dash that provides easy access to the driver command centre and B-panel. On the B-panel, a flex panel can be prepped for a tablet or configured for an additional 12 switches or 10 gauges. The truck’s interior also includes upscale appointments such as metal accents, while all-metal exterior brightwork is distinctive as well as durable. The 47X’s unique bonnet with its composite construction and ISO Tech suspension system resists bending and cracking by absorbing and dissipating vibrations from road inputs, which the company says helps negate driver fatigue. Power plan The 47X comes standard with the Detroit DD13 Gen 5 engine, which features higher compression ratios and a new swirl piston design to further improve combustion and efficiency. ThermoCoasting in the DD13 Gen 5 prevents aftertreatment cool-down during a driving regen to keep the system at its optimum temperature and significantly reduce the need for parked regens.

For weight-sensitive applications, the Cummins L9 and X12 engines are available for the 47X. The 47X is also offered with the all-new DT12-V transmission, which is built on the DT12 and has more than 35 million miles (56.3 million kilometres) of vocational-specific testing. The DT12 includes three workready mode applications: Rock-free mode, Off-road mode, and Paver mode for the challenges of specific vocational applications. Standard for any 47X equipped with the DD13 Gen 5, the Detroit Assurance suite of active safety systems brings active safety solutions including active brake assist, side guard assist, adaptive cruise control and more to keep operators, workers at the job site, pedestrians, and other motorists safe, the company said. On the job faster Western Star partnered with leading truck equipment manufacturers (TEMs) to ensure the X-Series supports fast and efficient upfits, it noted. The 47X’s mid-chassis packaging has a number of clear back-of-cab configurations while unobstructed frame rails provide more efficient body integration. The QuickFit Interface System offers ready access to electrical architecture and was designed for

D The unique bonnet can absorb and dissipate vibrations from the road, reducing the chance of cracking

easy TEM interface, programming and access to power. The CHEC Tool from DTNA enables TEMs and dealers to view and modify electrical configurations, giving them the power to customise inputs and outputs and change parameters within minutes. “With the 47X and the 49X we can offer our customers different options covering many different applications,” Carson said. “Whether their work be heavy-haul, logging and timber operations, or construction, we have the right Star for our customers.” The 49X remains a workhorse ideally suited to heavy haul and logging operations. Both models – depending on spec – are also ready to tackle oil field, towing and recovery, bulk haul, crane and dump applications.

Hyundai Australia reveals new Staria-Load van Big Korean farewells iconic iLoad with bigger replacement C

A B

Available from this month, the new Staria-Load range is available in either a two-seater van or fiveseater crew cab configuration, with the option of a liftback or twin swing tailgate. “With an all-new platform, space age design and cutting-edge standard features, the all new StariaLoad builds on the strong legacy of the long lived iLoad to bring a bold new vision to the van segment,” Hyundai said.

“Staria-Load delivers all the dependability of iLoad coupled with a larger, more usable cargo area, greatly improved performance and a vast array of advanced safety and convenience technology not offered by the competition.” The van’s cargo area is larger and more usable, with a cargo length of 2.607m, a width of 1.64m and a height of 1.436m. Access has been improved to load Euro standard pallets via the side

doors thanks to wider sliding door openings, with space to fit three full euro pallets (1,200mm x 800mm) or two Australian standard pallets (1,165mm x 1,165mm). There are also eight tie-down points throughout, a variety of mounting points for accessories and felt board trim in key areas where objects may damage the interior walls. The vehicle manufacturer stated that Staria-Load’s new

platform and layout has made the space more usable, increasing key dimensions plus an increased sliding-door opening-width for side forklift access. “Staria-Load has been built from the ground-up upon the same N3 passenger car platform as the latest 2021 Santa Fe,” Hyundai said. “This platform is lighter and more rigid than outgoing iLoad, which, combined with a new FWD [front wheel drive] layout, provides car- like refinement of the handling characteristics and ride quality, creating a more approachable and familiar driving experience without sacrificing performance. “While Staria-Load has moved to a passenger-car platform and FWD drivetrain, performance and dependability are better than ever. “A solid rear axle and leaf spring rear suspension provide a strong set up for carrying heavy loads reliably, while the new platform

and powertrain help increase braked towing capacity to 2.5 tonnes.” Highlighted features include: • standard safety features amongst others – forward collisionavoidance assist, blind-spot collision-avoidance assist, rear cross-traffic collision avoidanceassist and front centre airbag, all of which it is claiming a segment first for • a 2.5 tonne braked towing capacity • Surround View Monitor and Qi wireless charging technologies • a more usable and flexible cargo area. Staria-Load features a 2.2 CRDi FWD powertrain, mated to an eightspeed automatic transmission. The diesel engine is capable of 430Nm at 1,500–2,500rpm, with a fuel economy put at seven litres per 100km. Other features include an electronic parking brake (EPB) with auto hold function, tilt and telescopic steering column, drive

Linfox puts cool Volvo EV truck to work Electric Volvo FL refrigerated unit joins fleet for Woolworths Linfox, Volvo and Woolworths have hailed the entry of an FL Electric refrigerated truck into an operation role. The Volvo FL Electric will transport fresh produce daily from the Melbourne fresh food distribution centre (DC) operated by the Woolworths Group’s supply chain arm, Primary Connect. Just one of two Volvo FL Electrics in Australia and 75 released globally, it is the only Volvo FL electric vehicle in Australia to be fitted with refrigeration. Along with a lack of emissions, the jointly branded vehicle can deliver up to eight pallets of produce to Woolworths supermarkets at a time in near silence. Launched in 2020, Linfox’s Leading the Way 2025 business strategy identifies ‘act sustainably’ as a key strategic driver, the company notes. Linfox’s GreenFox sustainability program targets cleaner transport and mitigation of diesel emissions, amongst other sustainability initiatives. “In 2007, Linfox set out to cut its greenhouse gas emissions in half and we did that,” Linfox executive chairman Peter Fox said. “Today, we are not just interested in making our own business practices greener, we are

committed to helping our customers act sustainably too. “Linfox is proud to lead the way in the adoption of electric vehicles as we strive to meet our zero emission targets and support our customers to do the same. “With shared values, environmental considerations are at the top of Linfox, Woolworths and Volvo’s agendas. It is partnerships like this that can drive big change.” Volvo Group Australia president and CEO Martin Merrick bolstered the sentiment. “Volvo Group recently unveiled a vision of a carbon-free future, and we are proud to be playing our part in making the first steps towards achieving that goal here in Australia with these trial vehicles,” Merrick said. The Electric FL utilises four batteries to achieve an energy capacity of 200kWh, such is the pace of battery development. However, future iterations will feature a capacity of 265kWh. The electric driveline provides 425Nm of torque, which is delivered to the rear wheels via a two-speed automated transmission. Like its diesel-powered counterparts, the Electric FL maintains a full suite of active safety systems, including autonomous emergency braking.

The Electric FL also is said to achieve the Swedish BOF10 crash rating, which surpasses current European standards. “From the products in our supermarkets to the trucks that deliver them, we know the changes we make to become more sustainable today will create a better tomorrow for generations to come,” Primary Connect acting MD and Woolworths Group chief supply chain officer Chris Brooks said. “We will be watching the results of this trial closely with Linfox to understand how electric trucks can support our shift to a low carbon future in the years ahead.” Primary Connect acting MD and Woolworths Group chief supply chain officer Chris Brooks added: “From the products in our supermarkets to the trucks that deliver them, we know the changes we make to become more sustainable today will create a better tomorrow for generations to come.” A charging station at the Melbourne Fresh DC will boost the battery while deliveries are unloaded. The EV can travel up to 200km before needing to be recharged and takes nine hours to fully recharge.

Diagnostics: Regulatory Round

Prosecuting the decision makers The focus on senior people is growing more acute by the month Tragically, almost every injury or death involving a heavy vehicle could have been prevented. Investigators can often trace back how these injuries or deaths occurred, and pinpoint the exact moment where the situation could have ended differently – if only those in charge had stepped in and done the right thing. There is a clear push by many in the heavy vehicle industry for the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) to prosecute the decision makers – those higher up the supply chain – and for these offences, where their actions, or their failure to act, exposed a person to serious injury or death. Primary duty legislation under the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) exists for such offences, where a risk of illness, serious injury or death occurs. These are the most serious offences, and carry the maximum penalties available under the HVNL. For example, a Category 1 offence, where parties are reckless to the risk of serious injury or death, holds a maximum penalty of $300,000 and/ or five years imprisonment for an individual and a $3 million fine for a corporation. In addition to primary duty offences, executives also have an obligation to comply with the safe conduct of transport activities and eliminate or minimise hazards or risks, including public risk, associated with those activities. Depending on the level of breach, they may also carry up to five years imprisonment. By prosecuting those in leadership positions, there is a much greater

Belinda Hughes, director prosecutions at the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator

chance of real behavioural change from the top down, which is more effective than if the driver was charged. Industry has been calling out for us to prosecute the decision makers for negligence, and we’ve answered the call. It is incredibly motivating to be a part of an organisation that prosecutes these types of offences, which help put a stop to unsafe behaviours and holds the small group of operators that cut corners and take safety risks for a commercial gain to account. In the last 12 months, we’ve seen a 2,000% increase in prosecuting primary duty offences, and we’ve continued to seek strong sentences for these offences before the courts – nearly half of which involved fatalities. Two dangerous themes that have emerged from the incidents we are prosecuting are driver fatigue and insufficient load restraint. At the time of writing, there is a case involving two linked Brisbane-based companies charged with primary duty offences following an incident in Queensland. The incident resulted in the death of a heavy vehicle driver who had allegedly been awake for

18-and-a-half hours and suffered from sleep apnoea. We continue to prosecute an incident where a South Australian manufacturing company and its executive were also charged with primary duty offences. This incident occurred when a poorly-restrained load on a trailer caused metal beams to smash the rear window of a prime mover cabin at a traffic light, which exposed the driver to risk of serious injury or death. From these examples, you can see the reckless and unnecessary risks some companies and executives are taking, and how serious the consequences can be. What’s worse is that these examples were not technical breaches. The leaders involved should and do know better, yet they failed to act. There is no excuse for poor safety measures in any organisation. Companies have options for drivers when it comes to fatigue management, and work and rest hours. There is also an easy-touse load restraint guide available to ensure the safe and efficient transportation of loads. The role of a prosecution, however, cannot take away the importance of education and prevention, which is why we continue to partner with police agencies and key associations to educate industry on their safety duties and responsibilities. Regardless of the size of your business, having an effective safety management system (SMS) can be one of the best ways of ensuring you have a safety-focused business and are complying with your safety duty obligations. For more information, check out the NHVR’s 9 Step SMS Roadmap at www.nhvr.gov.au/sms. You should also regularly assess your risk management processes and guidelines against those outlined in the Master Industry Code of Practice. This is a guide to national standards and procedures for all heavy vehicle operators and supply chain parties to be safe and compliant. The Master Industry Code of Practice is also available on our website – www.nhvr.gov.au – search Master Code.

ACE EV unveils modular electric light commercial X1 Transformer platform designed to allow swift change in body modules Steadily developing Australian electric vehicle-maker ACE EV has launched its flexible X1 Transformer modular platform. The firm, which kicked off with a diminutive ute and van offerings, sees the design as taking electric light commercial vehicles “to the next level”. The X1 Transformer launch was hosted online by the Society of Automotive Engineers – Australasia (SAE-A), the Asia Pacific professional body for automotive and mobility engineering. ACE stated that the Transformer’s modular architecture offers interchangeable modules for long and short wheelbase, high and low roof, van and ute, and can change modules in just 15 minutes. The X1 is aimed at major fleets around the world as an integrated energy, transport and communications system. “We are a focused energy and

software company with a Mobile Energy Management System [MEMS] that delivers new ways for energy and transport to work together,” ACE EV managing director and co-founder Greg McGarvie said. “For busy freight companies with their major distribution centres, the X1 enables them to fit a pre-packed module straight onto its electric platform and be on its way in 15 minutes. “One platform can carry whatever cargo module is required – van or ute, high or low roof – so it is constantly earning its keep, whatever each individual freight mission may be.” A key feature of the X1 Transformer platform is its vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology, which connects it via the Cloud to telematics, software updates, emergency power and ACE’s pioneering Smart Energy Wallet. ACE EV had won $5 million in federal government funding,

crediting it to the strong advocacy of senator Rex Patrick for an energy management trial to start early next year using the X1 Transformer as its test platform. “Our Advanced Australian Vehicle To Grid (AAV2G) project will deliver bi-directional transfer between vehicle, building and grid with integrated on-board energy metering,” McGarvie said. “The system will enable the X1 Transformer to power an entire home or business, with the vehicle battery storing energy from rooftop solar cells or from the grid. “It can charge when the sun shines, provide night-time energy needs, supply emergency power when needed, feed back into the grid – and, of course, run the vehicle itself. “We intend to have X1 Transformer trial vehicles on the road this November, with a view to beginning full-scale systems testing in April next year.”

Paccar autonomous pilot tests linehaul capabilities Project with FedEx and Aurora to haul load from Dallas and Houston Paccar has linked with autonomous tech firm Aurora and FedEx to launch a commercial pilot of self-driving trucks in linehaul operations. This is the first collaboration of its kind between a truck manufacturer, an autonomous technology developer and a logistics provider, according to Paccar. Its autonomously-enabled trucks configured with the Aurora autonomous ‘Driver’ will haul FedEx loads between Dallas and Houston, a 500-mile (805km) round trip, along the I-45 corridor. The trucks will operate autonomously with a backup driver for additional safety. “Paccar is pleased to partner with industry leaders FedEx and Aurora on this innovative project,” Paccar chief technology officer John Rich said. Aurora chief product officer

Sterling Anderson said this collaboration allows for the creation of a cohesive and integrated product and service. “As leaders in our respective fields, we have critical and unique perspectives on how to develop and deploy safe, self-driving truck solutions for this industry,” Anderson said. “We believe there is no other credible way to deliver this complex and valuable technology at scale.” FedEx Corporation vice president, advanced technology and innovation Rebecca Yeung commented on the project’s outlook. “FedEx was built on innovation, and we always anticipate what’s next to be future-ready,” she said. “This is an exciting, industryfirst collaboration that will work towards enhancing the logistics industry through safer, more efficient

The autonomously-driven truck will haul FedEx loads in a trial

transportation of goods and we are pleased to collaborate with other industry leaders – Aurora and Paccar – on this endeavour.” In January 2021, Paccar announced a strategic alliance with Aurora to develop, test and commercialise autonomous Peterbilt and Kenworth trucks. The strategic alliance will integrate its autonomous vehicle platform with the Aurora Driver to enhance the safety and operational efficiency of Paccar’s customers. “This new commercial pilot collaboration demonstrates the excellent progress that Paccar and Aurora are making in our strategic alliance,” Rich said.

DHL Supply Chain ramps up healthcare fleet capabilities Sixty new trucks feature temperature-control innovations DHL Australia’s Supply Chain arm recently unveiled a significant 60-unit order for temperaturecontrolled trucks for its healthcare logistics task. One of two key Covid-19 vaccination distributors in Australia, DHL’s momentum in the health and pharmaceuticals space continues to grow after signing off on the healthcare-grade vehicles. The fleet features an Australianmade dual temperature cab solution with -8°C and 15–25°C ranges to ensure label claim compliance prescribed by the manufacturer. DHL claimed this solution is a first for the Australian market and ensures healthcare manufacturers can stay ahead of evolving compliance regulations. The trucks will also be the first in the company’s Australian history to steer away from the customary yellow branding, painted white to reflect sunlight as part of a set of specific protocols to ensure compliance while dealing with extremities in the Australian climate.

“The past year has underscored the importance of the Life Sciences and Healthcare industry and highlighted the complexity of pharmaceutical supply chains,” DHL Supply Chain Australia and New Zealand CEO Saul Resnick said. “Innovative solutions, such as this, are crucial to ensure these supply chains remain resilient and healthcare products are delivered in a compliant, safe and reliable way. “We have seen increased demand for our industry-leading temperature-controlled storage solutions, and this investment in our transport network complements the dedicated healthcare distribution centres we recently launched around Australia.” These vehicles will be progressively deployed throughout this year and next. This aligns with a recruitment drive to hire up to 50 new drivers and upskill existing drivers to enhance their safety and product handling knowledge. “The importance of maintaining

cold chain continuously from manufacturer to the patient is paramount,” DHL partner Pharmacy 4 Less CEO Feras Karem said. “At Pharmacy 4 Less, we are thrilled to work with DHL on ways we can use the new high technology trucks through the supply chain to keep striving for continuous improvement in what we deliver every day. “The dual-cab vehicles present an innovative way to address cold chain delivery, and open the door for DHL to work with Pharmacy 4 Less on some exciting future initiatives.” In addition to the new vehicles, DHL will debut a new reusable packaging solution that eliminates products’ exposure to the external environment, ensuring that the correct temperature is maintained from vehicle to receiver. The packaging solution is fully re-usable and keeps products at 2°–8° for up to 30 minutes once it has left the active cooling environment of the vehicle. ATN has sought more fleet details from DHL.

Tieman Tankers mourns founder’s passing

Niel Tieman received an Order of Australia medal in 2011 for services to the transport manufacturing industry

Neil Tieman credited with transport manufacturing innovation and leadership Neil Tieman, founder of the eponymous tanker trailer builder, has passed away aged 95. He started the Tieman business in 1953 in Preston, Victoria, manufacturing stainless steel tanks, vessels and equipment for the dairy industry. The company grew through the 1950s and established a new manufacturing factory in Keon Park in 1961. Through the 1960s, the company diversified into additional food manufacturing equipment, adding

interstate service branches to the business to service tankers, materials handling and tail lift equipment in the 1980s. The company’s current Campbellfield manufacturing site was purchased in 1994. Tieman Tankers has manufactured more than 6,000 tankers and currently offers a mix of prescriptive and performance-based standards (PBS) designs for the bulk liquid and dry bulk sectors for the Australian, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand markets.

Tieman was awarded an Order of Australia medal in 2011 for services to the transport manufacturing industry. “It is with a heavy heart to announce that Neil Tieman, the founder of Tieman Tankers, has passed away,” the company noted on social media. “An industry icon in the true sense of the word, he leaves a legacy that is respected industry wide and will always be remembered as the man behind the brand of Tieman Tankers.”

ACT government inks hybrid EV fire truck deal Rosenbauer’s Revolutionary Technology vehicle set to arrive next year The Australian Capital Territory government has made good on a hybrid electric fire truck pledge. The ACT Emergency Services Agency (ESA) has formally signed an agreement with Austrian emergency EV firm Rosenbauer to take delivery of what it said is Australia’s first plug-in hybrid electric fire truck in the first half of next year. In August 2019, the ACT government announced it would work with Rosenbauer to pioneer the engineering of its Concept Fire Truck (CFT) to suit Australian fire services. Ten months later, Rosenbauer went into series mode, with the then renamed Revolutionary Technology (RT) vehicles put in production. This year, RTs were tested with Berliner Feuerwehr, Brandweer Amsterdam Amstelland and Dubai Civil Defense. “In signing an agreement to take delivery of this plug-in hybrid electric fire truck, the ACT is leading the nation in showing how emergency

services organisations can transition to zero emissions fleets,” the territory government noted. The new truck is expected to feature a range of benefits for ACT Fire & Rescue firefighters, in addition providing a significant reduction in emission produced compared to a conventional diesel engine fire truck. “This pioneering new vehicle will be ergonomically designed and includes a walk in, walk out entry to support firefighters’ backs and knees as they enter and exit the vehicle,” ACT police and emergency services minister Mick Gentleman said. “Firefighter safety and comfort is at the forefront of the design of this new truck and it will feature a better use of its internal space and greater crew protection in comparison to the existing vehicles in our fleet.” Gentleman underlined that the deal was a crucial component in the ACT achieving its emissions reduction targets. “The ACT government has

committed to reaching a target of net zero emissions by 2045,” he said “Investments in new technology such as the plug-in hybrid electric fire truck are a crucial pillar in how we can be innovative in achieving this. “Transitioning just one of our existing trucks to an electric fire truck is forecast to reduce diesel fuel consumption by about 185,000 litres over a 10-year period.” Of the RT, Rosenbauer gave the following specifications: • Volvo Penta electric drivetrain • maximum drive power of both engines – 350kW • diesel-powered BMW range extender • two 100kWh batteries • permanent all-wheel drive • electronic stability program • adjustable undercarriage (ground clearance 175/250/350mm) • additional rear axle steering (allwheel steering) for optimised manoeuvrability.

’ n i k r Wo THE BIG CAB

Long hauls need a big cab, according to McClintock’s Transport. And Jayden McClintock, a third-generation member of the successful family company, was the lucky one to score the keys to the Kenworth T610 SAR. Warren Aitken chats with Jayden and his dad, Jeff, at their depot in Gympie, Queensland

14/10/21 10:55 am

I Three generations of the McClintock family stand proudly in front of the new Flagship: Jeff McClintock, Jayden and his two daughters

really did want to focus my opening paragraph on family, because this story is all about family. The star of the show is driven by a family member, the office is run by family members, the truck gets serviced by family members and the company has been family-run since it started in 1965. All of this family involvement during a time where a lot of the country is having forced family time and subsequently driving each other up the wall.

The McClintocks, on the other hand, have grown a highly successful business by working for and with family. Originally that was the tone I wanted to take when introducing Jayden and his father, Jeff McClintock, in this opening stanza. Then, I found out the family started in pineapple farming before moving to transport. How could I pass up the opportunity to make some rather truckiebased innuendos? I mean, we all know you normally start trucking and end up getting pineapples, not get the pineapples and

then get into trucking. There were so many comments open to me. However, I won’t, because I know everyone just wants to know more about the stunning Kenworth T610 in the photos. Let’s go! I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of McClintock’s Transport’s newest rig while cruising through Brisbane a few months back. It only took a little light Facebook stalking to chase down the owner. A couple of friend requests later I find myself sitting in the Gympie smoko room of McClintock’s Transport with the striking T610 flagship waiting patiently outside for some quality time with my Nikons. Jayden (the driver of the Kenworth T610) and Jeff (the man at the top of the food chain) were kind enough to give me a bit of a rundown on the 56-year history of the successful family business. This includes the changes it’s been through and the dedication to service that has seen it thriving with each year they clock up.

New DEALS that Jayden drives is a far cry from the two Bedfords his grandparents started with when they bought the company back in 1965. Ian and Fay McClintock were pineapple farmers in the Gympie district back then. For a change of pace, Ian and Fay chose to buy a small general freight company in the town of Kenilworth. Remember, this was back in the days of loading and unloading everything by hand. There was no such thing as an easy load. The two Bedfords were used to run general freight between Brisbane and Kenilworth, carting pretty much everything. Over the next decade, the company kept supplying more and more local communities, while also picking up loads of timber from sawmills around the Gympie area. After 11 years in small town Kenilworth, the choice was made to relocate to Gympie, where a lot of their work was originating. While still specialising in general freight, the McClintocks were also carting timber, glue, fertiliser and many more bulk products. Their

general freight customers had expanded throughout the Wide Bay area. The old Bedfords were gone and the company fleet was now a mixture of Volvos, with the trusty N10s and a few G88s. There were a few Internationals in the mix as well. It didn’t matter what was out the front, though – with the exception of a few tippers, the majority of trucks had flattops in tow. Flattops meant tarps, and tarps required skills – skills that are a rare find these days, though Jayden swears that even though he may pull a tautliner, his dad and grandad have ensured they’ve passed those skills down the line. As the company expanded, you could always count on finding Ian and Fay at the coal front doing the hard yards. This work ethic was passed down the family lineage and, as their kids grew up, they too chose to enter the family business. Jeff, who I was lucky enough to sit down with at the company’s HQ, left school in grade 10 to work on the family pineapple farm. Jeff signed up for his licence the moment

There’s not a lot the McClintocks don’t cart. I caught up with Jayden as he finished loading a trailer load of bulk fertiliser

We tend to run our trucks for

five years and then replace them

Believe it or not, this is a very quiet day in the Gympie yard; a yard that’s seen the company through for over 40 years

The family working together. I’m not sure who has the right of way, though Jayden keeps a close eye on his old man loading the big T610

he turned 18. Two days after that, he was behind the wheel of a single drive F86 Volvo with a bulk load of fertiliser on and headed for Bundaberg. His older brother, Al, headed for the workshop, where you can still find him today, undertaking and overseeing the maintenance of the entire fleet. The three other McClintock brothers also jumped on board. Kev has recently retired but you can still find Bruce running around on the forklift and youngest brother Peter loading trailers in the Gympie area. It wasn’t just the boys, though; their sister, Diane, is still working steadily in the company office. Along with the work behind the wheel, Jeff found himself often helping with, and learning the management side of, the business. It really was a case of complete immersion into the family operation for Jeff, although his preference was always the on-road side. When Ian passed away in 2009, Jeff stepped up and took on a lot more behindthe-scenes managerial work. His son, Jayden, followed in his father’s example as far as school was concerned; his after-school and school-holiday activities all revolved around helping out the company drivers. “I used to get picked up from school by the drivers and I’d help them go unload the beer and stuff,” Jayden admitted. Although not old enough to drink, he had no issue stacking it. Not for pocket money either: “I did it for the love of it.” When the time came for young Jayden to legally take the wheel in the family business, much had changed since his dad obtained a truck licence. While Jeff had started out

with a single drive Volvo and tipper trailer, Jayden got a rigid Hino. His dad worked in a yard full of flattops; Jayden was surrounded by tautliners. His dad had been able to use Jayden as a worker under the ‘I don’t have to pay him, he’s my son’ rule, but Jayden now expected a pay packet. There was also a lot that hadn’t changed. The company was still specialising in general freight to local townships, as well as a plethora of bulk loads. The McClintocks were also extremely loyal, especially to the salesmen that looked after them, as was evident by their predominantly Mack fleet. However, they were continued to display an ability to adapt and evolve, diversifying into fuel with the purchase of a Golden Fleece depot in 1985. This resulted in another revenue stream and a small fleet of fuel tankers. B-double free Another other old-school trait that hadn’t changed since the beginning was Jeff’s insistence on single trailer work, a decision originating from Ian and passed down since day one. There are still no B-doubles in the fleet. According to the McClintocks, single trailers in the general freight make life easier. Sure, they do a lot of pallet load pickups but when servicing small towns they can also be required to make pickups and drop-offs more aptly suited to a postman. This type of work does not worry the team, though. Listening to Jeff, it becomes extremely evident that, yes, making money is what keeps the business afloat but what keeps it successful are happy customers.

“We believe that if you give them good service, they’ll stick by you,” Jeff says. “You look after them, they’ll look after you.” Well, after more than five decades of work, it seems keeping the small-town service and friendliness has worked. The business is flat out and still growing. Which is where we step into the latest truck – the 2019 T610 SAR. The new Kenworth is by far the biggest rig in the company so far. Over the years there has been a lot of different makes and models brandishing the company logo. From the original Bedfords to Internationals and to almost the entire early Volvo range of G88s N10s, F12s and FMs. You name it, it’s been there. There has also been a few of the long running Volvo rivals – the mighty Scania Series 3 and 4. The comfort of the European cab-overs were eventually replaced with the Bulldog brand as the company looked towards better payloads. “The Macks were much lighter and better priced,” Jeff explains, adding that the relationship with their Mack salesman was also a contributing factor. “When the old man passed away, the salesman said: ‘I’ll help you out with anything, no matter what you want to buy.’” That type of personal relationship is held in great esteem in McClintocks’ books. More recently, the Mack Tridents and Granites have seen their territory eroded by the Kenworth badge, with several T409s proving their worth as well. “The drivers quite like the Kenworths,” Jeff says. Again, their addition to the fleet came about due to a solid relationship with their local Kenworth sales team. Sure, a cool Kenworth can sell itself, but like McClintock Transport itself you need to supply a good service and Kenworth did just that for Jeff. The other big fan of having the Kenworth bug out the front is Jayden. Well before he had a truck licence, Jayden was earning his stripes. Following his time behind a heavy rigid Hino, he upgraded to one of the company’s T409s, still at a fairly young age for a truck driver. This meant the company’s insurance restrictions wouldn’t let him go any further than Brisbane for the first year. The second year saw him able to stretch his legs as far as the Gold Coast and then, once he cracked the 25-year-old mark it was free rein.

Jayden was given the responsibility of covering a run between Gympie, Brisbane and Sydney. With his immaculately maintained T409, he would head off on a Sunday, returning six days later to the family depot. In no time at all the little T409 was nearing a million kilometres and Jeff started looking at a replacement. “We tend to run out trucks for five years and then replace them,” Jeff explained. By this stage, Kenworth had halted the production of the solid T409 and the new T610s were rolling off the line. Bigger cab The arrival of the T610 was quite the leap ahead for Kenworth; integrating a lot more technology and safety features. Jayden confessed he was blown away by the easy access to so much information from the dashboard and its smart screen. “Yeah, the old Kenworths had all the gauges that you could get the covers for, but this is just great,” Jeff admitted.

While the majority of McClintock’s fleet sport sleepers, they tend to be around the 36-inch (91cm) size. The decision was made with the new T610 was to opt for the bigger 54-inch version. “In the end, it wasn’t much more cost-wise for the big bunk,” said Jayden, with his dad attesting to the all-round benefits of a bit more room when the truck is doing constant interstate work. Jayden agrees thoroughly there; he’s only a small bloke anyway, so it’s like an apartment for him. “We got the double bed in it, which lifts up, and there’s heaps of extra storage under as well,” Jayden enthused. Add that to the overhead cupboards and the Kenworth could smuggle a small family across the border these days (although I guess I shouldn’t be joking about that). The other big difference between the new truck and the rest of the fleet is that it is the first SAR Kenworth for McClintock’s Transport. Jayden tried to convince me it’s all about the front axle placement and weight distribution

– all that official ‘business only’ kind of justification. But, when pushed, he admitted it has a lot to do with looks, and there’s no argument from me. With the big bunk and SAR lines the T610 look extremely tough. Appearance has always been a big thing with the McClintocks, though they’ve opted to keep the base colour white on their fleet. However, they have always ensured their trucks are finished off subtly, yet strikingly well. The new truck was no exception. After leaving the Bayswater factory it was sent direct to Rocklea Truck Electrical in Brisbane where Brock McDonald and the team began adding extra lights and extra shine. After Rocklea Truck Electrical had done its bit, the truck was sent north to Truck Writers on the Sunshine Coast where Tony Gibbs went to work adding the signwriting and scrollwork. It’s the trademark of the McClintock’s fleet – base white but just the perfect amount of detailed scrollwork to really make them stand out – and the T610 is continuing that tradition.

With all the finishing touches finally squared away, McClintock Transport’s big Kenworth T610 SAR was hooked up to a custom-built 22-pallet Freighter trailer to complete the look. Yes, Jaiden loved his 409 with its old school gauges and gearstick, but he hasn’t looked back since. The new truck may have lost the fancy gauges, but he’s kept the gearstick and gained a bucketload of room and, he admitted, a boatload of comfort. From two second-hand Bedfords 56 years ago to a fleet of 17 and one of the sharpest state-of-the-art Kenworths on the road, the McClintock family has survived and thrived by supplying a stellar service with a fantastic fleet. The big cab T610 SAR just reinforces that point. However, one thing that I’m sure of is that, with Ian continuing to be heavily involved in the company right up until his passing, he would have been proud to have experienced three generations of McClintocks – himself, Jeff and Jayden – wearing the company uniform together.

The new T610 Kenworth is an eye-catcher but the company's bulldog fleet still turns heads as well

Indomitable SNOW MAN

While it may have negligible influence in the daily grind of hauling road freight, MAN certainly has a few ardent supporters in specialist roles where off-road ability and versatility are key requirements. And there are perhaps none more ardent than Karl Stadelmann, whose road maintenance and snow clearing operations in the Snowy Mountains continue to prove, year after year, that a good MAN is definitely worth keeping.

t was the spring of 1979 and an unseasonably heavy snowfall had dumped on the Snowy Mountains. Unseasonable or not, the dump was ideal, for two valuable, yet vastly different, reasons.

Karl Stadelmann pictured with a MAN 8x8. His preference for MAN stretches back many years

First, as the relatively new staff writer on the formerly formidable Truck & Bus magazine, I was heading to a Department of Main Roads (DMR) depot deep on the New South Wales side of the Snowy to do a story on a batch of MAN off-roaders bought for their versatility to operate as a snow plough, tipper and crane truck. Obviously, the more snow, the better the conditions to see the trucks doing their thing. Second, with absolutely no experience driving cars, trucks or anything else on snow or icy roads, but loaded to the limit with the heavy-footed folly of ignorance, it was perhaps inevitable that the spanking new Ford Cortina staff car would slide off an ice-coated curve and drop nose-first into a table drain filled with freshly ploughed snow. Ironically, as I was soon informed, snow ploughed by one of the trucks I was heading to see. Cold as a Tassie trout after scratching snow from around wheels, it wasn’t too long before a local in a Land Rover stopped and, with a glare

as frosty as the countryside, hooked a long strap around the axle, snapped the Ford back onto the road, fired a volley of acetic advice into ears that wanted to hear nothing but the hum of the car’s heater fan, then rolled up his strap and drove off. Anyway, valuable lesson learned and, gratefully, no harm done, so no reason to mention it to anyone. But as is the way of such things, word travels fast. The blokes at the DMR had already heard a Cortina had been pulled out of a snow bank a few kilometres back but, only now, as the car rolled sedately into the depot, did their wide grins confirm the coming embarrassment. “How was the detour, mate? Did a bit of ploughin’ yourself, did ya?” Ego battered and bruised, it was small comfort to hear such events happen regularly to ‘outsiders’ when the weather turns frozen white. Okay, I get the message, but can we now talk about the trucks? Please! Built for purpose The NSW DMR was, of course, the predecessor to the NSW Department of Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) which, since 2019, has been absorbed under the umbrella of Transport for NSW.

Classic DEALS Whatever, back in the late 1970s, the authority then known as the DMR decided the time had come to replace its Magirus Deutz-powered Rolba snow blowers, logically based around the NSW snowfields, with something somewhat more practical. It’s not that there was anything fundamentally wrong with the snow blowers, or that they were worn out. Sure, they were 16-years-old or thereabouts, but these aircooled Swiss specialists worked only in the winter months and sat idle for the rest of the year, except for those rare occasions when unseasonal weather suddenly turned the Snowy, snowy. In short, annual utilisation levels weren’t particularly high. Thus, in what must have been a moment of some official brainstorming, someone or some group of people within the DMR decided after 16 years that having highly specialised machines standing idle for at least half a year was, well, a tad impractical and, without putting too fine a point on it, fiscally flawed. So, tenders were called for truck suppliers capable of supplying four trucks to be fitted with snow ploughs, but also fitted with things like a tipper body and self-loading crane to perform a multitude of maintenance tasks in warmer months. Not surprisingly, a number of prominent truck brands threw their hats into the tender

process but it was MAN that won the deal, based, in large part, on having the products and engineering expertise to meet the DMR’s exact requirements. Plus, no doubt, an established history and enviable record of supplying government departments and public utilities with purpose-built models for specialist roles. After a long and exhaustive process, made even longer by the wait for specialised aftermarket ‘cold weather’ components, the 1975 model trucks offered and chosen were 4x4 MAN 15.280 models – signifying a nominal 15 tonnes gross mass rating and around 280hp (209kW) – consisting of two single-cab units and two double cab configurations. Obviously built long before the introduction of automated manual transmissions, each truck drove through a 15-speed overdrive Roadranger transmission. By the spring of 1979, the MANs had several seasons behind them and the general consensus of DMR managers and drivers was highly positive. As one experienced DMR snow plough driver commented at the time: “They’ve got plenty of power and one of their great advantages is that they can maintain a constant ploughing speed. “If weather and traffic conditions permit, you can stay in one gear, both uphill and down, pushing a good load of snow.”

A highly specialised Rolba snow blower operated by the NSW DMR before the arrival in the late 1970s of a batch of four MAN 4x4s to work all year round. The blowers only worked in the winter months

Likewise, and remembering that this was the late ’70s, there was plenty of favour for the comfort and driver convenience in the European conventionals, not least the fingertip electric-over-air controls which meant, “… you don’t have to stop or slow down to engage the diff lock or change ranges in the transfer case. “They’re the ideal vehicle for this application,” as one eager MAN fan exclaimed. However, none of these impressions in 1979 would have come as startling news to a man over the border in the Victorian snow country. In fact, when it comes to ploughing snow, specifically with MAN trucks, there’s perhaps no greater knowledge and probably no greater advocate for the brand and the business than Karl Stadelmann. Indeed, among those in the know on the subject of pushing snow, it was Karl who first brought to Australia the concept of a snow plough attached to a truck. It took time and a lot of enterprise on Karl’s part to influence government decision makers, but the message finally soaked through. It also took time for three of the four MAN 4x4s bought by the DMR all those years ago to ultimately find a welcoming home in the company called Stadelmann Enterprises. Man to MAN Nowadays, and with his 85th birthday done and dusted, Stadelmann conceded he isn’t quite as active as he once was, but that certainly doesn’t mean he’s out of action altogether. Not by a long shot.

As he quickly explained, Stadelmann Enterprises has evolved over many years to become a snow ploughing, road maintenance and construction, and quarrying entity, first created when it became apparent after 25 years with the Victorian government authority that would later morph into VicRoads, that the best way to get ahead was to go your own way with what you know best. For Stadelmann, that initially meant venturing out with his own bulldozer and gradually adding more machinery as opportunities arose. Nowadays, the business operates from its original base in the Victorian town of Bright and from Jindabyne in NSW. While Stadelmann looks after the snow ploughing operation out of Bright, the bulk of the business, including snow ploughing, operates largely from Jindabyne under the control of his son, Harald. In many respects, the Stadelmann story is reminiscent of so many Europeans who found their way to Australia’s Snowy region and, ultimately, forged a remarkably rewarding life. In Stadelmann’s case, it all started in 1955, at the age of 18, when he emigrated to Australia from his native Austria, utilising the heavy machinery skills learned from his father to gain a job as a grader driver with what was then Victoria’s DMR. What surprised him, though, was that road graders were then the accepted machine for removing snow and ice from roads.

“It was,” he said in an earlier report, “an extremely slow way of doing it, with graders operating at five to 10 kilometres per hour.” However, back when many high country roads were gravel, graders at least had the benefit of grading the road as they went. It was a different story as more alpine roads became sealed, with grader blades being less than gentle on bitumen surfaces. There was a better way, and Karl knew it. In the often snow-bound extremes of Austria, snow ploughs mounted to the front of trucks historically provide the best of both worlds – faster snow clearing and less road damage. A proven and accepted practice. Yet, convincing some Australian road authorities had its own challenges, as did convincing some local truck suppliers (notably MAN and Mercedes-Benz) that demonstrating the advantages of a truckmounted snow plough had the potential for considerable commercial merit. As Karl found, though, importing the right plough from Europe was one thing, but it was something else to demonstrate the advantages of a snow plough without a truck to carry it. Again, and perhaps frustrated at the lack of interest by local truck suppliers, Karl’s European background and individual initiative led him to buy a used MAN and, from then on, the message started to materialise as he conducted demonstrations to various authorities, proving beyond doubt

the advantages of a truck-mounted snow plough. In the right hands, of course. The short version of a long story is that, today, holding contracts with road authorities in NSW and Victoria, Stadelmann Enterprises pushes around 90% of all the snow that falls on Australia’s high country roads. One of the few exceptions is on the Snowy Mountains Highway, where Transport for NSW operates its own snow plough and road maintenance operations, where one of the original 1975 MAN double-cab units still operates alongside its modern-day 4x4 and 8x8 successors, proving that MAN’s success in the high country has certainly stood the test of time. Indeed, all four of those original DMR units ran for many years but when time came for three to be replaced, Karl says he didn’t hesitate in 2004 to give the trucks a new home, first buying the two single-cab units and later, acquiring one of the twin-cab models at auction. Those trucks are now more than 45-yearsold and it’s a tribute to the Bavarian brand’s build quality and engineering foundations, and obviously the maintenance standards which have kept the trucks in such good order, that they’re still viable and effective in an operation where reliability is absolutely essential. Of course, Karl needs no convincing of their aptitude for the various functions in the Stadelmann stable. Sure, he admitted, there’s some personal fondness for the brand

A 1975 MAN 15-280 twin-cab model still earns its keep for Transport for NSW in the Snowy region. Versatility as both an effective snow plough and road maintenance unit remains the key to MAN success in the Snowy Mountains

Snow Shoes Made in Finland, Nokian winter truck tyres are made specifically for snow and ice conditions

The importance of good winter tyres certainly isn’t lost on companies such as Stadelmann Enterprises. Trucks, like cars and four-wheel-drives, need the right winter tyres for safe driving in low ambient temperatures on the snow and ice risk sections of Australia’s alpine roads. "It is the tyres that make a vehicle grip the road in these snow and icy conditions, not the vehicle drive system," Richard Townley of Snow Drive Solutions said. Accordingly, Townley said the tread compounds of Nokian winter tyres used by both the Stadelmann and Transport for NSW snow-clearing operations are designed to remain flexible in extremely cold temperatures so the tyre tread ‘keys’ into the road surface. Normal drive and steer tyres are less effective when temperatures drop below 7 degrees C, as the tread compound becomes harder, offering less grip. Consequently, Townley said, it’s essential for log trucks, snow clearing trucks and passenger buses operating in low temperature conditions on snow, icy and slush covered roads to fit the right tyres. Made in Finland where snow and ice are an everyday part of life, the Nokian Hakka Truck E2 traction winter drive tyre, Nokian Noktop E2 drive retreads and Nokian F2 winter steer tyres are designed for the most extreme demands and to minimise the need for snow chains on alpine roads. "The increased traction is provided by the tread compound, the deep open tread, extensive tread siping and the connected-

block tread design to give the maximum level of snow and ice grip that lasts the entire service life of the tyre," Townley stated, adding that the truck tyres are also available with studs to further improve grip and safety on icy road conditions. Nokian lays claim to making the world’s first winter tyre for trucks back in 1934 and, since 2004, its winter tyres have been available in Australia from the snowtyres.com.au division of Roof Carrier Systems Pty Ltd. Snow chains As a specialist supplier of snow chains as well as winter tyres, Townley also offers worthwhile advice on the use of snow chains, explaining that for chains to work effectively, they must penetrate into a compacted surface. Snow chains, he said, will grip to the snow and ice but will wear very quickly when they are driven on a bare road, with the wear problem compounded by the camber of the road, the weight and torque of the vehicle. Consequently, snow chains need to have firm, compacted snow or ice to penetrate to provide the maximum amount of traction. Traction is often lost, and wheel slip and spinning are experienced when the snow or ice begins to break up and melt. In certain situations, the vehicle can slide on the wheel chains especially under braking when driving downhill. The overall message is that while there’s certainly a place for snow chains in winter conditions, their use needs to be carefully considered.

Classic DEALS derived from his Austrian heritage but, that said, there’s no escaping his regard for a brand that has served his business so well for so long. Admittedly, the all-wheel-drive trucks aren’t big mile-makers but, after so many years working in often arduous and climatically challenging conditions, their reliability is unquestioned, Stadelmann said. “We’ve never touched the engines,” he attested, “and with hub-reduction, the drivetrain is second to none for our work.” Explaining that there are both cab-over and earlier conventional configurations in the company’s model mix, including two relatively late-model 8x8s, it is an unequivocal Stadelmann who again assertted: “MAN is definitely the best truck for what we do.” Still, it’s not all plaudits and praise for the brand. Among the 16 MANs in the 20-truck Stadelmann fleet, there’s a 480hp (358kW) TGA 6x4 model operating as a truck and dog tipper combination which he blatantly describes as, “… a lemon. Beautiful to drive but reliability has been terrible. If that was the only model they had, you’d never buy a MAN.” On the other hand, Karl isn’t shy about citing his approval for the company’s three Hino six-wheeler tippers and a lone MercedesBenz Axor 4x4. “They’ve all been reasonably good trucks,” he said, simply. “Actually, the Hinos have been very reliable.” However, with several Japanese brands now offering 4x4 models in various weight capacities, it seemed reasonable to ask: “Ever thought of a Japanese model for the off-road work, including as a snow plough?” An answer came fast and firm. “No!”

Put simply, he believes bonneted trucks are fundamentally more stable in slippery conditions but, most critically, he sees Japanese double-differs as “just a two-wheeldrive truck with an extra diff at the front”. They lack, he insisted, the drivetrain technology and functional finesse of the Europeans, even those more than 45-years-old. “We know what works for us,” he said with absolute certainty. Yet, things have changed in the snow plough business, he added. Whereas it was once the driver’s decision on how much salt and grit were spread on the road to disperse ice and enhance traction, the process is now computer-controlled, with laser technology that reads the road temperature and spreads exactly the right amount of a salt and calcium chloride mix to disperse ice. “We’ve come a long way,” he reflected. “We don’t use grit at all anymore because when the snow and ice are gone, the grit remains on the road and that can become a problem for motorbikes.” As for the constraints of operating in this era of Covid-19, particularly given the disease’s hugely negative influence on ski resorts and vastly reduced traffic volumes on alpine roads, he said simply: “It hasn’t really impacted us because our job is to keep the roads open for everyone, not just the skiers. “We’re obligated to keep the roads open, and that’s not always in the winter months. You can get snow anytime up in the mountains. “But that’s just what we do,” concluded an emphatic Stadelmann, perhaps typifying that no matter what the age, it’s hard to keep a good man down. Pun intended!

Late snow in the Victorian high country. The German maker’s reputation in snow clearing operations is unsurpassed

Before restoration: the B-61 Mack had plenty of pulling power, despite its drab appearance when Neil Hughes bought it

My name is Neil Hughes and, when I was a kid, I always wanted a B-model.”

That was the start of my interview with Neil and his son, Patrick. When you repeat it out loud with a little pause after Neil’s name, you can almost picture yourself sitting quietly in the back row of some addiction anonymous meeting, listening to a man opening up on his obsession. All we lacked was some chocolate biscuits and weak coffee. Thankfully, Neil’s addiction has not been as detrimental to his health as those that require meetings. However, his wife, Evelyn, who doubles as the finance manager, may disagree as to the downside of his addiction. The end result is I’m conducting this interview not inside a church’s back office but in the shadow of one of the most pristine B-models I’ve seen. It has been a much bigger project than Neil first envisioned, but he’s finally fulfilled his childhood dream and got himself a B-model. If you are reading this and are not familiar with a B-model Mack then there is a better than fair chance you are reading the wrong magazine. The B-model Mack is about as identifiable as the Wiggles in a snowstorm. First introduced in 1953, nearly 130,000 B-models rolled off the production line over the next 13 years. The B-model set a new benchmark for style, with its rounded hood, cab and fenders. The aerodynamic design approach was

also matched by the introduction of the legendary END673 Thermodyne open chamber, direct-injection diesel engine. In its day the Thermodyne was a dependable power horse, producing between 170 and 210hp (128 and 157kW). There was also a turbocharged ENDT673 that let loose a huge 220hp (164kW). Numbers aside, the B-models are easily one of the most stand-out trucks, even today. The luxurious lines hark back to an era where vehicles came with more character than comforts and it’s a reason why they have stood the test of time so well. At any historical show, you will see hordes of people assembly around an old B-series. If they aren’t simply admiring the old girl then they are most likely recounting their experience with one. That’s exactly where Neil comes into the story. For while trucking isn’t his forte, memories of travelling with his dad down the old Putty Road drove him to where we are today. Sitting in Kingaroy with his exquisite 1963 B-61. “Dad always used to say: ‘If you’re going to buy a truck, buy a Mack’, though he was probably referring to ex-army NRs,” recalled Neil, laughing as he added his dad’s follow-up line: “If you’re going to drive a truck, make sure someone else loads it.” This was more a reflection of the days his dad spent hand-loading the old Chev Maple Leafs and Internationals.

But what has been a big interest for Neil has been restoration projects. He has spent his life restoring old motorbikes before detouring a little – well actually detouring a hell of a lot – and getting tied up in restoring and working steam trains; his son, Patrick, also sharing that pursuit. As Patrick grew and took more of a leading role in the steam train arena, it left Neil with a bit more time on his hands. Just by pure happenstance, around the same time he was stepping back from trains, a childhood dream became a reality. Neil acquired a B-model. “I got the opportunity to buy a ratty, faded old B-model, so I bought it,” Neil said. “It belonged to a bloke called Malcolm Coffey.” Coffey was apparently a man of few words,

Just a little tinkering around to chase down a noise Neil wasn’t happy about. The ever-patient Evelyn waits by

but Neil learned he had owned the truck for about 10 years. As a fan of English lorries, he wasn’t big on B-models, the truck being more of a bookend than an active classic. Luckily for Neil, he was in the right place at the right time and managed to snap it up. They were able to get the truck registered so Neil could drive it home and off they went. I questioned Neil as to his previous experience of driving B-models; I knew I’d need a few lessons to comprehend the old quad box. “A bloke from Allora let me drive a little bit,” Neil recalled, though he defined ‘a little bit’ as only a couple of kilometres. He also admitted to not using the compound box. This factor was actually more a motivation than deterrent for Neil. “I always thought, if I bought a B-model with a quad box at my age and I learnt to drive one reasonably, well, I’d have achieved something.” Personally, I have to admit, it is a point I could relate to very well. Like every project Neil gets involved with,

he throws himself all-in and his attention to detail is second to none. His first job was to learn as much as he could about the truck. Chasing down the ownership history was the first challenge. This particular B-model rolled off the production line in December 1963. It was painted factory red and fitted with the high-horsepower 711 Thermodyne. The truck entered service with Price’s Interstate Transport in 1964. It was one of several B-model Macks that Bruce Price bought back in the ’60s and earned its keep working between BrisbaneMelbourne or Brisbane-Cairns. It was clocking up around 6,000 miles (9,656km) a fortnight. The only hole in the truck’s story line comes between the years 1967 and 1972. Price sold out to Brambles in 1967, however, the truck was never painted in Brambles' colours. In 1972, the truck was purchased by Bernie Brady, who subbied to Halls Van Lines and Mayne Nickless. Tracking down this information only came about when Neil was stripping the truck

down and happened to stumble across an old Collingwood Supporters Club badge that had been attached to the driver’s door and subsequently painted over. The Collingwood Club archives officer put some time in digging out old membership registers to give him some leads. Many phone hours and phone calls later, the registered club member was tracked down, eventually matching it to Brady. When Neil spoke to Brady, he asked Neil if it had the bullbar with the stiff bar socket out the front. Neil confirmed: “That’s the one,” adding in “It’s still the same faded, tired old red truck,” to which Brady informed him that, in fact, he had owned a green truck. Once again, when the tear-down took place, there was evidence of the green paint job. So, somewhere between 1967 and 1972, the Mack had its first facelift. Brady traded it in at Brown & Hurley in 1976, where it would find its way into the possession of Graham Radke from Jandowae. Before Radke put it to work hauling grain, he sent it off to Dalby for a coat of red paint to be applied over the green. That wasn’t the only modification. Neil learned that, in order to assist with the rumoured 30-odd tonnes of gravel he was putting behind the little girl, Radke had some extra helper override springs made to assist the rear end. The Mack was extremely well looked after and maintained and was snapped up by Norm Woollett in Jandowae when Radke sold it. Woollett eventually sold it at his farm sale

to Price’s, the wreckers, who took it home for a couple of years. It was then bought by Paul Caley from Aramac, who once again put it to work before he passed away. From there it ended up with Coffey and, finally, Neil. Cracked cab By the time Neil bought the Mack, it had been well worked. It still had the same gearbox and running gear but the 711 had been removed and replaced with a 673 Thermodyne. Neil and Patrick believe that may have happened around the time of Radke and the massive gravel loads. As much as it was a bit worn and faded, the true extent of the Mack’s hard life didn’t, at first, become evident to Neil and Patrick. The father and son team both had some quality

The old Thermodyne is still makin’ a mile

time behind the wheel when they took the Mack down to Glen Innes for a historic truck show. This was back in 2017, a time when we all could travel freely between states and go to events known as truck shows – a wonderful era. Sarcasm aside, the trip focused Neil’s attention on a couple of the cracks in the cab. “They were getting bigger and bigger,” Neil said. “One of the blokes at the show said the cab mounts were obviously stuffed. Turns out they were all homemade. A lot of things in it were bodged up and dodgied up to keep it running.” From there, the problems seemed to grow at the same rate as the large rust patches that had also been found around the cab mounts. “It became a case of you either restore the cab or you scrap it,” Neil admitted. When he weighed up the chances of finding another cab, he opted for the restoration. Obviously, Murphy’s law states that no sooner did they undertake a major restoration when a new cab became available. Bloody Murphy was right again, but at least Neil can laugh now. “The cab was practically brand new and a fraction of what it cost to fix this one.” Being a seasoned restorer, Neil knew to investigate and consult the right people before moving forward. “Two out of 10 people said paint it, while eight out of 10 said ‘leave it, it’s so original, don’t worry about the rust, it’ll do another 20 years’,” Neil said, before continuing to say the problem is it had done its ‘other 20 years’. “It was a lot worse than it looked.” The first job for Neil was to remove the guards, grill, radiator surround and all that kind of thing out and send it off to Logan Village Smash repairs to get the repairs started. “It took a day just to get the guards off,” says Neil, frustratedly, going on to explain how they’d used bolts that were too long, so years of bulldust and grime had built up and every bolt was seized.

If you’re going to

buy a truck buy a Mack

They’d even welded bits of waterpipe on to mount the rear guards. Nothing was easy to get to. The process just to tear it down was getting harder and harder. Once the cab was off and the sandblasting complete the extent of the job ahead became evident. Neil commends Robbo at Logan Village Smash Repairs for being the only man willing to take on the project. “He’s an astute businessman and no doubt realised it would be a bloody good money earner,” he laughed. The original plan was just to get a few repairs done by Robbo. However, while it was in there, Neil would occasionally call in to check the progress and sneakily start tearing

Not only did I get to enjoying photographing and learning the history of the old Mack, I also got the pleasure of a ride in it

down more parts. When he noted that Robbo didn’t seem to worry, Neil went to town. Pretty much every hose and pipe were still the original. Sitting there they were fine but as soon as you put a spanner on them, they’d crumble. The same issue plagued the wiring, so all that came out. They found an extra cross member welded over the back. After that had been done someone obviously backed into something and Neil had to remove that and grind it all back to get rid of the big banana in it. A good replacement cross member went back in. There were plenty of cracks found in the 55-year-old radiator, so that also got added to the repair list.

By the end of the teardown, Neil had replaced every valve, every hose, everything. “The only thing I didn’t replace in the brake system were the shoes, the drum and the chambers,” he explained. The electrical system suffered the same fate, with all new wiring installed throughout. “I did it a bit different to Mack; I made it so there’s a separate harness for the tail, separate one for the generator, separate one to go out to the circuit boards,” Neil continued. This manoeuvre and forethought comes from his years of restoration experience, realising if he rewired it this way any future electrical gremlins would be easier to track down.

Bulldog badge Once it was stripped, Robbo was able to match the paint perfectly to pristine original paint found underneath the marker lights. He used the same skills to colour match the interior as well. Neil called on his contacts, who steered him to Tylden Heritage Restorations in Kyneton, Victoria when he was looking for Mack badge to replace the missing ones off the truck. When he could, he kept everything original. The Mack badge below the ‘Mighty Dog’ was sent off to Neil’s preferred stainless man, Nathan at Extreme Metal Polishing in Brisbane, who, along with doing all Neil’s stainless work, knocked out all the tiny dents in the original badge and restored it to its former glory. Custom glass was needed to replace the windscreen and side windows. Glass for

Classics on the Gold Coast played a huge role in that challenging task. Annvid from Capalaba, known for its upholstery work in some big projects, stepped up to repair the seats while still retaining all the original springs and inner workings. It also made up an all-new hood lining and fitted that as well. “None of it was cheap,” admitted Neil, “but you get what you pay for. “We didn’t do the engine or gearbox,” he added, explaining that parts are very hard to find and it is still running well. Keeping it as close to original as possible was the number one goal for Neil and Patrick to ensure its distinctiveness. “It’s always been a bit unique; it’s got four marker lights and an airhorn in the centre,” Neil explained. “It makes it stand out; we’ve never found another B-model where anyone’s done that.”

Exactly who is responsible for those additions is unknown. After two-and-a-half long years of stripping down, repairing, rebuilding and repainting, Neil’s first truck restoration project was finally finished and unveiled. With many a rewarding rebuild behind him, including working on a few steam engines, Neil was able to sum up the process pretty concisely. “Frustrating,” he joked. “It’s worth it, though. It’s just, sometimes you’d pull something apart and go: ‘Damn! I don’t know how to go forward and I can’t go back’,” Neil said. Even with some of the rarest bikes he’s restored, finding parts was often easier than finding good parts for the Mack. With the old B-model there were so many tasks that needed completely rebuilt parts and plenty of custom parts just to make it work. A three-month job to fix the cab took

closer to 15 months. It was that kind of project. Neil wanted to thank all those involved, who have helped make his childhood dream a reality. In particular Patrick, who has been behind him since the start. Truth be told, he’s often been behind, beside and below him, assisting Neil whenever he needed. Evelyn also deserves praise. As well as being the financier, Evelyn has been a huge part of the whole project. Neil reckons that while he knows of a number of B-models that are much better restorations than his, he’s happy with the way his has turned out. All he has to do now is actually enjoy this magnificent Mack, which is nearing its 60th birthday. “I don’t mind taking it to shows,” Neil said. “The reality is, though, driving it there and driving it home is much more interesting. I want to drive it, not look at it.”

The Mack was always a desire for the Hughes, but it’s also a useful tool. With the era-correct trailer in tow, they can take some of their other restoration projects around the country, when allowed

DELICATE IN THE

One young woman has approached the road transport industry from a different angle to most, and it’s paying dividends for both her business and her customers’ slick-looking trucks

The great thing about road transport is the variety. There are so many different areas within our industry, from drivers and loaders to allocators and managers, store people and office workers to salespeople and detailers. Therefore, when I’m looking for volunteers for my ‘Woman in Trucking’ profiles, there is a vast array of options..

Kayla Marshall and junior installer Madison Wooller were too busy concentrating on the intricacies of a T659 bullbar to pose for a photo

For my second Woman in Transport feature, I decided to step away from the driver’s seat side of things and look into affiliated businesses. I got very lucky when I met an extremely motivated and driven young woman who has built a successful business that caters to a tremendously important aspect of our industry, making sure our trucks look cool! Maddison Lawrence is the young lady that I’ve lined up for this story and Slick Azz Protective Films is the business that she started. The Brisbane-based company specialises in applying paint protection film to heavy vehicles. It’s a high-end film that shields the vehicle from the wear and tear of the tough industry we work in. The bonus side being it makes maintaining shine and cleaning trucks a hell of a lot easier. The question is, how has a 27-year-old woman, with no family affiliation to transport, managed to not just break into the transport

industry but thrive and fall in love with it? Easy, really: she’s a bloody hard worker. Lawrence is a self-confessed gypsy. Born in Gladstone but raised throughout Queensland, the transport industry was never really a goal for her. “Everyone asks if my dad’s in transport and stuff like that. There’s no family history at all,” Lawrence said, laughing as she added: “My dad is a scientist; he’s the most impractical person ever.” Ending up in the transport game was purely a result of Lawrence’s larger goal. “I just wanted to run a business,” she confessed. At the completion of high school Year 12, her father offered some sound advice. “Dad said: don’t go to uni to learn business, do something and learn business firsthand,” Lawrence recalled. “My mum had a car detailing contract that she’d been wanting to sell, so I took my savings and bought that.” In comparison, at the end of my school years, my life savings – bearing in mind I was a lot like Lawrence and I’d been working since about age 12 – would barely have stretched to a Happy Meal. An indication of Lawrence’s character was she’d saved 11 grand and used that to buy the car detailing contract. Even back then, it was

We get the

blingiest cool trucks; I love that

One of the first trucks Maddison Lawrence protected was K.S. Easter Transport’s oneof-a-kind FH Volvo

evident Lawrence had her head screwed on right. Slick Azz Detailing was her first official business and Lawrence would eventually grow beyond the fleet car contracts she had and end up with mobile detailers in Brisbane, Rockhampton and Emerald. She wasn’t just the manager, though; Lawrence was very much a hands-on boss, contorting herself amongst the fleet cars and cleaning up with the rest of her employees. Lawrence ended up living back up in Rockhampton when she got Slick Azz Detailing started there. The self-confessed country music girl was happy in Rocky as well, until a call from Jason Ryan at Viking Trucks on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast offered a new opportunity and would throw her into the transport industry. “I’d detailed a couple of trucks for Jason while I’d been living in Coolum,” Lawrence explained. “Then he rang when he’d just picked up a contract to refurb some trade-in Volvos. He asked if I’d move back and detail the trucks.” That job had her detailing around 10 trucks a week. “It was just me doing the trucks and they were used, so they were gross,” Lawrence admitted with a laugh. It was hard work, as any detailer will tell you, but she was growing a solid reputation for the work Slick Azz Detailing was doing on heavy vehicles. Her affection for heavy vehicle and

the transport industry had developed to the point she started focusing Slick Azz Detailing on trucks, picking up work at Brown & Hurley as well. As if cleaning them wasn’t enough, another example of the opportunities within our industry blossomed soon after when Lawrence got a chance to become a used truck salesperson. “Jason just said to me one day: ‘You’re here enough, do you want to have a go at selling trucks?’” Lawrence tells me with a smile. “I was like, ‘yup’. I was 20 or 21 … real young. I didn’t know [anything] about trucks.” I’m not sure if it was just youthful enthusiasm or her natural optimism but she jumped into the new challenge with the gusto of truckie in a chrome factory. “It took me a while, it took me a long while, but I finally sold one,” Lawrence said. “I still remember my first customer, he’s now a customer here at Slick Azz.” There really isn’t a great number of female salespeople and Lawrence found her first hurdle when the phone calls would come in asking to be put through to the ‘salesman’. In her effervescent voice, Lawrence would say: “Yeah, that’s me." Nine times out of 10 this was greeted with an initial “What?” but that shock never lasted long. “I always had good intentions and that’s what really mattered,” Lawrence said. “If someone asks me something I didn’t know, I’d say: ‘I’m really sorry, I don’t know, let

me get back to you.’ I’d go find out and ring them back.” Lawrence took to truck sales like a duck to water. Though she admitsted her day-today memory is shocking, she was great at recalling which truck had which running gear and so on. Again, when a question stumped her, she went and learnt. It wasn’t all smooth sailing, though. Lawrence recalled an incident at an auction where her lack of industry experience had her looking less than professional. “I mainly dealt with Volvos, everything I dealt with was like FM or FH. I didn’t know Kenworths, so when a guy was asking me about a 409 I thought he was telling me the part number or something. “Yeah, but what type of truck?” she kept asking him. His reply was a very curt: “A bloody Kenworth 409.” However, Lawrence said: “It was a fun job, I really liked it and I really liked the people." She adds that she encountered the

occasional person that didn’t want to “deal with a chick” but it was rare. Technical advice I couldn’t write this without including one of Lawrence’s more embarrassing truck sales stories. It all stemmed from a customer requesting a bit more information on a truck he was looking at. As she had already said when she wasn’t sure of the answer, rather than offer salesman BS, she would go off and find the right answer. “I was very good at regurgitating information,” Lawrence recalled. “So I rang the service department, ‘Gotta find out blah blah blah’. The service department told me: ‘It’s got a bit of a knock in the engine.' I didn’t really realise that’s not a good thing and went back and told the guy.” Lawrence soon realised her mistake when she got a call from her boss: “Did you tell the customer there’s a knock in the engine? Why would you tell someone that?”

14/10/21 10:58 am

It’s laughable now but Lawrence admitted in the beginning she never understood a lot of what she was regurgitating, so had no idea what information to withhold. Funniest part of the story is, she still sold the truck to that customer. Honesty does work. What Lawrence also learnt from her time as ‘the chick on the coast that sells trucks’ was that she loved sales. Slick Azz Detailing was still running but she was looking for something else. The goal now was to combine the two – detailing and sales. She took her biggest grievance in detailing and went about trying to find a solution to sell it, which was chassis rails. “I was so sick of cleaning f#%kin chassis rails;

worst job and they never look clean.” So, Lawrence went looking for a rumoured spray-on product that would protect them. This would eventually be the birth of Slick Azz Protection Film. Lawrence wanted to find a product she could sell to make detailing trucks easier; a product that wasn’t reliant on labour. With her usual gumption and lack of fear, she boarded a plane and went off to a trade show in China, aiming to find this magical chassis cleaning spray. Like the Loch Ness Monster, cheap fuel or a smooth border crossings it turns out the chassis cleaner didn’t exist. However, she did stumble across the paint protection film. In a short space of time she learnt as much

162

as she could, finding out it was a product that had been being used on high end luxury cars for years. When she questioned the companies over there about putting them on trucks they looked at her like a dog learning algebra. However, that didn’t dissuade her, she could see a market for it. “When I was selling the second-hand Volvos they were just peppered in stone chips on the front,” she recalls, “and I thought ‘why isn’t this stuff being used on trucks?" The next few days at the trade show were a whirlwind. With a huge language barrier, zero comprehension of the technicalities of the product she wanted and no idea how to install it, she threw herself into it. For the

record, that’s her summation, not mine. “I knew nothing about this product, like absolutely nothing. I’m like, ‘You got the clear wrap? Can I be your Australian distributor? It’s pretty much how it went down,” Lawrence laughed. The irony is, after a lot of translation issues and frustrating meetings, Lawrence met the CEO of the US manufacturer, Flexishield. With some sample rolls and Lawrence’s connections in the transport industry, she was able to test the product out. As she believed, it worked a treat. Slick Azz Protection Film was underway. First task was for Lawrence and her crew to fly over to Flexishield’s US plant and learn

how to install it. Like other manufacturers, Flexishield had primarily been using its product for the luxury car market, never once thinking about the truck market. “They actually thought I was a bit crazy wanting to put it on trucks,” Lawrence admitted. “I was mainly looking at the cab-over problems and they don’t have a lot of cabovers in America anyway.” Lawrence and her crew were trained up on installing the product by the team there. With bags filled with the Flexishield product, the team flew home to hit the ground wrapping. Show truck The transport industry can be a very tightknit community, it’s who you know and word of mouth, so with the contacts Lawrence had accrued through her detailing contracts she slowly started to get a few people willing to try the product out on their trucks. One of her first trucks was the stunning Viking Truck build show truck of K.S. Easter Transport. After word got out, a few working trucks started turning up. When those guys were suddenly racking up thousands of kilometres without faded paint, dull bull bars or bucket loads of stone chips, business began picking up further. The booking sheet at Slick Azz Protection Films was filling up quick. Pretty soon the small workshop they had rented in the Brisbane suburb of Wacol became too cramped and a newer bigger area was needed, allowing the team to build a dustfree area so they could expand into the car and 4WD market as well. “It’s a lot of work,” Lawrence said. However, the trade-off is the amazing transport people she meets. “A lot of my customers have become good friends, they take as much pride in their trucks as I do in my work,” she said. She also admitted to getting excited when a new truck gets dropped off.

“We get the blingiest cool trucks; I love that," she exclaimed. The process involved is extremely time consuming, a standard bullbar can take up to 10 hours to do, with another two hours cutting out the film. Wrapping tanks is an hour to 90 minutes. Getting a bonnet done can be an eight-hour job. “We try to do it as seamless as the cars,” Lawrence explained. The level of attention to detail is rewarded with repeat customer getting more and more done with each truck they send through. “We have one customer that just says; ‘Wrap everything, wrap it as if it were your own truck,'” Lawrence laughed. The company is now in its fifth year and there is never an empty shed. Another point I need to make is the majority of Slick Azz staff are women. In a way it’s a deliberate, yet not intentional, move. Lawrence has just attracted a lot of women who are keen to get involved. They all love the hands-on aspect of working in the transport industry and Slick Azz Protection Film has been a way for a lot of these women to be a part of it. The lack of male influence may also be swayed by the high-energy social media presence from the Slick Azz team. Hell, they even tried to talk me into being a part of one of their TikTok dance videos. No one wants to see me dance. Lawrence is a great advocate for the transport. In a male-dominated industry, she has been met on every level with respect and admiration and, although it was tough at the start, whether it be selling a truck or wrapping a truck, she noted that once people realise she had as much passion for her area of the industry she was welcomed with open arms. I think that’s the best part of our industry. There are so many roles available, and Maddison Lawrence has shown that women can succeed and ‘shine’ (pun intended) in any of them. Slick Azz bro.

Heavy Metal INTO THE

Brayden Abbaticchio’s dream of becoming an owner-driver took years to achieve and many miles across the continent before reaching his goal of driving his very own sparkling Kenworth T908 Words | Warren Caves 167

“

t isn’t a job, it’s a lifestyle; if you like your job, it’s easy.” While he admits this is a bit of a cliché, Brayden Abbaticchio of BMA Truckin’ lives by this axiom.

Brayden Abbaticchio’s owner-driver career started with a Mack Trident, before moving up to a Kenworth T609 and ultimately a T908

The Kenworth T908 was named 'The Price of Existence' after an album by US heavy metal band All Shall Perish

Abbaticchio has just received his Kenworth T908 after four months off the road following an unfortunate incident with a car on Sydney’s M7 motorway, which resulted in a considerable repair job. While he, once again, sits up high in the 908, grinning like a rat with a gold tooth, it didn’t start out this glamorous for a young kid destined to become a long-distance truckie. Role models can play a significant part in the direction of youthful career selection. Abbaticchio’s dad was a carpenter. However, growing up with his stepdad, who was a truckie, and having the day-to-day exposure and interaction to this type of career, he was drawn to the transport industry. “If I had grown up in the same house as my dad, I would have become a carpenter, 100 per cent,” Abbaticchio said. Before the big horsepower, multiple trailers and the shiny stainless adornments came along, there was a young kid of 18

jumping into his first truck driving role in an uninspiring two-tonne Isuzu NPR 200 rigid truck. The job was with Flowers Freight lines and Abbaticchio ran “hot shot” work in the little Isuzu, venturing out to places such as Innamincka, Mt Isa, Adelaide and anywhere in between. He worked in this role for a year or so, sleeping across the seat in the little truck to get the job done. The little Isuzu was never going to suffice for this truck-mad kid, so Abbaticchio moved into a job running Tarcutta changeovers in a Mercedes-Benz Atego rigid. This kept him busy four nights per week, moving freight for StarTrack and, at the same time, gaining valuable experience. As these things often turn out, contracts come and go and, after a year, the contract was up and a new job was needed. While on a visit to Queensland, Abbaticchio took the opportunity to upgrade his licence from a heavy rigid to a multi-combination qualification. “On my 21st birthday, I drove my first B-double truck,” Abbaticchio said. As it would

Abbaticchio preferred the Kenworth T908’s straight bonnet to his previous steed

turn out, it would be only a short 12 months later that he would be hooking on to his first triple road train – on his 22nd birthday. On his path to bigger and greater things, Abbaticchio started working for Ross Transport in Port Kembla. It was here that he was taught to dog and chain loads as well as the tarping skills necessary to transport the steel he was tasked with delivering from Port Kembla to Brisbane in his allocated Freightliner Century Class and accompanying single trailer. Before long, he moved into a B-double, again a Freightliner, this time a Coronado, which saw him covering some 5,800km or so per week between Port Kembla, Melbourne and Brisbane for Ross Transport. Life seemed good and Abbaticchio had achieved a lot within the industry in a short space of time. However, there was something more beckoning that would take him across the continent to experience. “I went for a holiday to Perth, I just wanted to see all the big jiggers. I ended up staying for four years,” Abbaticchio laughed. Western road trains The move to Western Australia offered Abbaticchio, at the age of 22, his introduction to road train work. Securing a position with JKL in Perth, the wide-open spaces of WA offered a nomadic adventurous lifestyle some only dream of. Running from Perth to Darwin and Perth to Karratha was a dusty world away

from the busy highways of the east coast freight routes. “After a while, I ended up working for a guy out of Brisbane doing Brisbane-InnaminckaBrisbane in a T650 with a 36-inch (91cm) bunk. I liked the work, but I liked Perth more and found I was not getting back there enough, so I gave that job away and went back west,” Abbaticchio explained. Upon his return to Perth, he worked for some time with Russell’s Transport, running Darwin and Kununurra in Kenworth T904s and T909s with 60-inch (152cm) bunks. Along with the miles, time was marching by and it had now been four years since he had left Sydney for some adventure out west. Home life and family were calling and Abbaticchio ultimately moved back to Sydney. He settled back into a driving role with Scarcella Transport. However, there was just one itch that had been left unscratched. Inspired by his stepdad, Chris, who had been an owner-driver, Abbaticchio had dreamed of one day owning a truck, something he could call his own to add his unique touches to. But the straight bonnet of the T908 was still a little way off yet. To kick off his owner-driver career, he enlisted a Mack Trident to pull a single, flat top trailer, which Abbaticchio bought from his former boss, Alan Ross. Abbaticchio worked the truck contracting to Toll and K&S Freighters carting steel to Brisbane before realising the small 30-inch (76cm) bunk paled

Classic New DEALS DEALS in comparison to the big 60-inch bunks he was used to. “That 30-inch bunk just wasn’t big or comfortable enough for the time I was spending in it, and I really wanted to get back into B-doubles, which the 470hp (350kW) Mack wasn’t really up to,” he recalled. Right price The Mack was traded up for a Kenworth T609 with a 50-inch (127cm) bunk, a move that allowed Abbaticchio to get back into his beloved B-doubles. The T609 was found for sale in Moree – it hadn’t done a lot of work and had only 400,000km on a rebuilt engine and, according to Abbaticchio, the price was right. “The 609 was a great truck and I set about getting it looking the way I wanted it to look,” he said. The 609 served him well for a time and led him into contracting for Lawrence Transport at Ingleburn in NSW, a company he still works with today. Lawrence Transport is a company where Abbaticchio seemed to fit right in. For

those who frequent trucks shows, the maroon and white livery of the Lawrence fleet stand unparalleled among the crowd. Abbaticchio had truly found his crew. “I started working with Lawrence Transport in November 2018 on the recommendation from my mate, Cody, the operations manager for Scarcella Transport, and honestly they have been more than great to work for,” Abbaticchio added. While he admits the 609 was a great truck and he regrets selling it, it wasn’t the illustrious straight bonnet he quietly desired. The

Hy Shyne Customs added a few nice cosmetic touches, including wrapping the tanks stainless

A bullbar was added from specialist Mr Bullbar

Abbaticchio wanted a little more class and comfort, hence the leather trimmed seats

chiselled straight cut, no-nonsense design of the long bonnet models were his ultimate goal and, with that in mind, Abbaticchio's current T908 entered the fold. Up until recently, Abbaticchio had been working his T908 in its original state, adding minor personalisation to the truck. Working with Lawrence Transport sees him pulling mainly B-doubles to Melbourne, Brisbane, Cobar and West Wyalong. That was, of course, until the M7 incident,

which put the truck on the sideline for a few months. The collision caused a good deal of damage to the front end of the truck. While the collision repairs were carried out by Kent Collison & Custom, a good deal of the time off the road was a result of Abbaticchio deciding to take the opportunity to further accessorise and ‘bling-up’ the truck to something he could be justifiably proud of. Stainless, low-mount guards and a Mr

and back on the road

Bullbar bar were fitted by Kent, with final paint and design work being drawn up by truck artist Brad Natoli. A sketch was drawn up by Natoli, with the input from Brayden, culminating with the final result we see here. After the custom paint work was completed, the 908 was shipped out Hy Shyne Customs for the remainder of the cosmetic embellishments. “Luke at Hy Shyne wrapped the tanks in stainless, fitted new exhaust shrouds, stainless intake covers, roof light and tank lights, etc.,” Abbaticchio explained. In true old-school fashion, the line and scroll work was painted by Dennis at Signs, Lines and Scrolls. To make the long days in the saddle a little kinder, he had the seats re-trimmed in leather with the company name added to them. Adding to the comfort level during the long trips away from home, the truck is fitted with an Ecowind air conditioner, fridge, freezer, microwave and power inverter to run it all. The truck is powered by a Cummins EGR engine rated at 615hp (459kW) and 2,150Nm of torque. An 18-speed manual transmission is

used for ratio adjustments. To date, according to Abbaticchio, the 908 has clocked up around 1.3 to 1.4 million kilometres. “I really want to thank all involved, including the team at Lawrence Transport. They really treat you like part of the family,” he said. “They helped me getting the truck repaired and back on the road and kept me on driving one of their trucks while it was being repaired. “They were also kind enough to lend me this new Vawdrey B-double set for this photo shoot. “I originally went to Lawrence’s in 2018 to do a week’s work and haven’t left. I’m still blown away as to how the truck has turned out, I can’t believe it’s mine,” proclaimed Abbaticchio, proudly. “I always wanted to have a nice truck I can call my own, something to take pride in.” ‘The Price of Existence’ adorns the back of the cab; it’s the name of an album by All Shall Perish, a metal band Abbaticchio is into. The phrase could also easily apply itself to his refreshed 908. Undoubtably, the price of this superb 9-0’s existence is quite a few more hours in the driver’s seat.

Brayden subcontracts to Lawrence Transport who kindly loaned him a set of Vawdrey B-double trailers for the photo shoot
