Truck Industry Council (TIC) T-Mark figures for this October presents reasons for all this bullishness. We can begin with the blazing run of monthly totals this financial year – 3,296, 3,520, 3,685 and last month’s 3,805. Then we can compare that with the same period in the previous peak year of 2018 – 3,344, 3,845, 3,506, 3,781. Then we can compare this calendar year to date (YTD) figure of 34,226, breathing down the neck of 2018’s 34,446. And then we can deduce that this one will go down to the wire. The question being, can this year’s run continue strongly enough to make up 221 units before January? It may come down to the volume leaders. Looking at the boom-year comparison for makes, Isuzu’s October was at 966 with a calendar YTD of 8,266 against 2018’s 924 and 8,187 – hence the confidence in that camp. Hino relative performance is pretty good, especially on YTD, at 473/5,162 against 511/4,647. And Fuso is doing more than just holding its ground with 420/3,874 versus 388/3,554.

Where is the momentum to create a record year to come from? We will have to look elsewhere than the mid-size market, where, of the big three, Hino is hoeing a lonely furrow. Totals were 608/5,969 compared with the record year’s 721/6,807. Hino’s brave game saw it at 174/1,940 – 195/1,819.

October came in at 1,313/10,417 against 2018’s 1,398/11,759. Segment leader Kenworth was trying to bridge the gap at 304/2,276 against 276/2,361. October was a good month for Isuzu, in that it beat Volvo to second spot, but, like the segment generally, the comparison was under: 163/1,128 – 175/1,517; Volvo at 157/1,328 – 178/1,759. Those rising to the challenge were some of the other makes, such as Scania 115/963 – 75/734, Mercedes-Benz 108/1,019 – 106/931, DAF 78/513 – 59/393 and, interestingly, if to a lesser extent, Fuso 59/478 – 51/465 and UD 68/467 – 66/456. But they had little support otherwise.

That was proof of its efforts through this calendar year, as is the change in market share, 32.5% against 26.7% four years ago. Isuzu holds it a bay with 294/2,413 – 302/2,725, as Fuso posted respectable figures by its own lights of 95/1,170 – 100/1,012. Speaking of market share, Fuso also saw its rise to 19.6% from 14.9%, with its and Hino’s rises coming at the expense of all the other makes, given they are all lower and Isuzu’s rose only 0.4%.

Light-duty As has been mentioned in truck sales coverage before, the lighter end is the engine room of turnover growth. It is pretty plain doing the comparison with 2018, where we see 1,303/11,855 – 1,234/10,788. It is where Isuzu most definitely comes to the aid of the party with 509/4,725 – 447/3,945. Though beaten out for second place by Fuso with 266/2,226 – 237/2,077, Hino has had a bumper time since January, with 254/2,731 – 247/2,321.

City Crane Trucks and Isuzu climb to the top

We buy Isuzu based on their

reliability

and our relationship with the dealer

Tray tops, tilt trays, self-loaders, semi-trailers, and arguably Australia’s biggest crane truck featuring the Hiab 800E7 crane — City Crane Trucks Transport & Crane Truck Hire, located just north of Adelaide’s city centre, offers a service like no other. Running a fleet of over 50 crane and transport trucks for hire, the locally grown business caters to industries from construction through to government projects, mining and local transport, with no job too big or too small for this fullservice fleet. “Your biggest task is our easiest challenge,” City Crane managing director Bruno Simone said. “And we’re happy to take on anything with our fleet. But we’ve managed to get a foothold in the bigger jobs in the commercial and government sectors because of our compliance to standards.” Compliance comes in many forms, but Simone noted that a key issue for any crane and transport hire company was avoiding overloading situations, with weight distribution across the truck chassis an ongoing concern. Needing a diverse line-up of trucks, he’s found some favourites in Isuzu’s model range; from the metro-savvy NNR 45-150 with AMT (featuring 4,500kg gross vehicle mass [GVM] and 8,000kg gross combined mass [GCM] ) to Isuzu’s heavy lifters in the GXD 165-350 auto prime mover and FYJ 300-350 auto (featuring 16,500kg GVM and 30,000kg GVM, respectively). That’s not to forget City Cranes’ mediumduty workhorses, the w FTR 150-260 auto

and FVY 240-300 auto, sporting long wheelbases and rated to a GCM of 36,000kg in the larger model. “Having the right trucks for the job simply means we get the work we want, which leads us to buying and maintaining the fleet… it’s a repeating cycle that gives us an advantage,” Simone explained. “We’ve put up around 85% of the light poles around Adelaide so far, which is great in the sense that we’re helping to build up the city. “We buy Isuzu based on their reliability and our relationship with the dealer… we started out with Isuzu and they haven’t let us down so far.” Isuzu’s FYJ 300-350 8x4 and GXD 165-350 auto prime mover are serious performers in the crane hire application, taking care of heavier day-to-day missions. With generous power of 257kW (345hp) @ 2,000 rpm and torque of 1,422Nm @ 1,400 rpm, the FYJ has grunt to get the job done. A supremely useful GVM of 30,000kg and GCM of 45,000kg makes for a tool that City Crane Trucks’ clients can trust to finish the job on time and safely. “Our heavy rigids are fitted with a seven to nine metre tray with a crane attached, usually Palfinger, while our GXD prime movers are fitted with a variety of crane bogies,” Simone said. “These Isuzu trucks have great power and payload suited to the jobs we’ve bought them for, and that hasn’t changed after all these years of buying Isuzu — the range continues to provide what we need. “Every time I pick up a truck, I seem to put in an order in for a new one!”

CANDIDATE If you prefer bonnet and bling, you need look no further than this spanking Kenworth T909.

Scan with your Smartphone camera to check out this deal!

2017 Kenworth T909 550hp Cummins ISX X15 18 spd 565,222km $369,000 Green Fields, SA Rob Sinclair Equipment Finance 03 8373 7040

There have been some older versions of Kenworth’s leading products in this section recently but this is a significant departure. Not least, it is about to celebrate only its fourth birthday, almost to the month. Little wonder it has but a modest 565,222km on the clock. When our sister publications reviewed the model in the mid-2010s, one with 200,000km was described as “effectively just run-in”, so this one is obviously in its prime. This one features a 550hp (410kW) Cummins ISX X15 engine stirred through an 18-speed Eaton RTL020918B transmission and Dana D52-190 rear axles at 4.56 ratio. Air-bag suspension is courtesy of Neway AD246/10. As the picture shows, sparkle comes from the alloy wheels and FUPS bullbar, while alloy also graces the water tank. As this is a conveyance to spend many hours in, it comes with a 50-inch (127cm) high-roofed integrated sleeper with Ecowind bunk air-conditioner, with the compressor mounted on the roof. Like that tested vehicle mentioned earlier, this version is road train rated, to 155 tonne. Finance options are available, including Rent To Own. “For some it’s about the big–banger looks, for others it’s about the long wheel base and limo like ride,” our sage said not that long ago about the attraction of the T909 to road train haulers and not a few single trailer operators. If any of this is for you, come with $369,000 in your pocket and get it quick.

The market knew about it because this country’s unrivalled truck media revealed the lengths the storied German make went to ensure it was fit for purpose. Though the truck was that, it had to be, because there is no market more exacting this one. Proof of the pudding is that Benz has a market share that has grown since then, while some classic brands have languished and formerly popular ones have fallen by the wayside. Which brings us to this 2017 MercedesBenz Actros 2653, suited for B-double work, that is on offer for just $107,800, with some 977,009km behind it and many, many more sure to come. The 6x4 has been well maintained by manufacturer on contract and is offered by a Mercedes-Benz used truck outlet. Given the 530hp (390kW) rating, it is pushed along by an OM471 engine with 2,600Nm (1,918lb ft) of torque reined in or out by a 12-speed PowerShift automated shifter. Inside has the ergonomic comforts you would expect from the Europeans plus a flat floor, a Mochila cab air-conditioner and a deep fridge. It would be a pity to miss out but then, did we mention it is but one of two to choose from . . . ?

But it isn’t this one. Not by a long chalk. Let’s start with a modest number, such as eight. That was a 114 and this is a 122. But that merely serves to hide a massive disparity in creature comforts. Nice as the other one was, and it was, it didn’t carry a massive "Big" 58" raised roof ‘home’ on its back. Really, you need to see the images of this beast online. Every necessary angle is there and it’s as spotless as it is cavernous. A home away from home? Well nothing can stand in for that but this is as close as it get. You just have to take in the features: • Icepack 2000-S sleeper cab air-conditioning system • microwave (Panasonic) and invertor • fridge • walk in sleeper with double bunks • cupboards galore. At the business end, it has pretty much the same grunt, with a Detroit DD15 pushing out 560hp (418kW) with the same with 1,850lb-ft (2,508Nm) of torque. And there are other details to whet the appetite, such as the 709,000km it has made on the dial and an asking price of just $82,500. Just as attractive, it is sold directly from Freightliner's factory owned used truck outlet.

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. All trailers, drop decks, curtainsiders, mill ball trailers and skels for

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.”

Industry rejects HVNL reform process DGL goes on a fleet acquisitions spree Driver to pay Blenners $550,000 for crash Ford’s E-Transit and Australian EV roadmap

11/11/21 1:16 pm

Diagnostics: Forward Vision

Dealing with rejection The industry has no confidence in the HVNL reform process The internet is full of videos of people failing to understand situations have changed. They often provide for embarrassing, salutary and sometimes painful outcomes as a form of entertainment. The most amusing of them involve people in silly “there but for the grace of a deity go I” moments, making mistakes any of us may have come close to making in the past. Others bring a touch of schadenfreude, where the arrogant and unthinking are brought down a few pegs due to an unfortunate reaction to them being just that. It is what dash-cam jockeys have taken to calling “karma”. Still others have a mesmeric traincrash quality that leaves observers more in awe than laughing, and questioning just how such things could have come to pass. The Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) reform crisis mostly strikes this observer on the latter level but does have elements of all three. Perhaps it has something to do with the tendency towards accentuating the positive for an industry that is subject to so much lazy negativity generally. Messages of support and encouragement come often from it to the governments that can do so much that is creative and so much that could be destructive. So, given how solicitous the industry usually is towards federal transport ministers over the

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

years, it was a cause for pause and contemplation that, bar a perfunctory thanks to federal transport minister Barnaby Joyce when his office said he would address trucking’s HVNL reform process concerns with the National Transport Commission (NTC), the response was so cool. Mainstream political pundits would describe it as Joyce proving again to be a great ‘retail politician’ who reads the room masterfully. Trouble is, they wouldn’t have been in this particular room in the first place to see how it played. Even for a politician with skin as thick as Joyce’s, being damned with such faint praise is an ugly experience. Likewise his deputy, Scott Buchholz, a country Queenslander whose feet are more firmly in rural dirt and who has freight transport experience, seemed caught in a position where being able to acknowledge the reality has proven too difficult – at least to this point. Let’s give him the benefit of that doubt. He is not the senior minister, after all. And just what is that reality? Well, the industry has given

government as a whole a vote of no confidence in their handling of the reform. This is no small thing. It is an accusation of incompetence in this task, aimed at all ministers, their departments and the NTC. Adding a surreal flavour to proceedings so far is an inability to acknowledge or respond meaningfully to it. How the government side extricates itself from this disaster will be fascinating. Nothing stings government more than embarrassment and being forced to admit responsibility. And, of course, there is a federation angle to complicate matters. That means ministers of jurisdictions having to display leadership for the greater good. Not always an easy task, as the pandemic has shown, but not impossible, by any means. If the observation that few officials experienced in the reform process are still in position holds true, not just juniors thrown in just because jurisdictions only had observer status at the fatigue round table, part of that leadership might be ‘getting the gang back together’, if they can’t abide idea of a panel of experts taking reform forward, as industry demands. Again, if so and either way, the sooner it is done, the more quickly the reform can be completed and other important matters can be addressed. This nation is awash with reform needs. On one viewing, it is possible to see the NTC being in an invidious position as a government instrumentality tasked with carrying out ministerial directives. It may be that a stout defence of a more inclusive strategy was overwhelmed. Whatever was the case, it will need to mend bridges pronto if it is to avoid trench warfare with the industry on the remaining reform proposals. That is, if something more drastic isn’t forced on it.

Dogs and chains

Looks must be deceiving. Given how buff and muscular they look, our persons “most wanted” by police must spend an inordinate time in the gym and be as fit as fiddles, inside or outside their cases. But driving from Sydney to Queensland is too hard? As he is yet to face court, we will refrain from naming Mostafa Baluch, but police made national and international headlines by busting him while he had been travelling inside a Mercedes-Benz 4WD that was inside a shipping container on the back of a truck. Being the polite folk they surely are, Queensland police at the Queensland/NSW border knocked on the container and allege the wanted man knocked back. And now the truck driver has been arrested. Sure the Pacific Highway can be dull at times and there’s not much to see at 1am but what’s wrong with driving your luxury car yourself?

Strange days indeed with industry-government relations. There was a time when – apart from the odd road tax hike and that limited difficulty with the Road Safety Remuneration Tribunal (RSRT), which was solved by a change of government – it seemed Canberra could do little wrong. Now, with the Heavy Vehicle National Law reform process looking tattered and being compared with the RSRT (the horror), poking the federal bear again might not seem entirely wise. But sometimes friends have to speak and act plainly or they are failing in their responsibility, right? And who better to help out than the Electric Vehicle Council (EVC) and its measured and conservative CEO, Behyad Jafari, who said this month: “There’s no sugar coating it, Future Fuels is a fizzer.” The ATA and the ECV are currently developing a policy report on electric trucks. Fingers crossed!

You may think it’s taking the, ahem, piss but the global urea shortage has parts of the world on edge and not just due to the lack of diesel exhaust fluid. The poor South Koreans are having to airlift urea solutions so they can keep their diesel-powered trucks moving. But it’s not just trucking that’s in the gun over this. Farmers rely on it as a key ingredient of nitrogen fertiliser. And already Brazilian coffee growers are feeling the pinch, which is a worry for our truck stops. If it starts hurting their brethren in Columbia, who produce arguably the finest coffee in the world, pony-tailed innercity baristas better watch out.

What’s that you say? What about the Australian angle? Ah, yes. Being in such physical proximity to China and in the face of panic-buying, our Korean news colleagues are quick to point out that this nation’s rather clumsy diplomatic approach to our largest trading partner’s rulers is a root cause. Their logic is this. Korea depends on China for urea imports. Urea is produced using coal. China has a coal shortage due to restrictions on that major Australian export. China is blocking urea exports due to its own shortfall. So, it’s all our fault? Not really. The Koreans know great-power rivalry when they see it and they’ve seen a lot. The bright side? They want to buy more urea from us . . .Facculpa

Driver to pay Blenners $550,000 over crash damages Truck rollover found to be caused by illegal mobile phone use A truck driver has been ordered to pay nearly $550,000 to Blenner’s Transport in a civil case over truck and cargo damages caused by a rollover while using a mobile phone. The District Court of Queensland court found William Dowling breached his duty of care to the company by illegally using his mobile device, failing to pay due care and attention, and losing control of the truck causing loss and damage to the goods and the truck. On September 18, 2019, he received a call while driving on the Bruce Highway south of Ingham. In-cabin monitoring showed him failing to connect with a Bluetooth earpiece before looking down for about two seconds to swipe the phone with one hand, with the other on the steering wheel. The truck veered left at about 97km/h as the roadway fell away steeply, with the driver trying unsuccessfully to correct the truck before it continued off the side of the road and rolled before stopping to a rest. The driver suffered serious injuries while the truck and cargo were damaged. Judge Morzone noted the case was “unusual”, as “whilst, ordinarily, an employer is vicariously liable for the negligent, wrongful or criminal it’s [sic] employee, there is no bar to an impacted third party suing the employee directly. The defendant is capable of being sued by the . . . plaintiffs.” Judge Morzone rejected claims from the driver, who was selfrepresented, citing technology shortfalls around hands-free technology and lane departure warning; that he was put under pressure to forsake rest breaks in

order to meet driving schedules; and that the company did not endure the trucks were overloaded. “The defendant argues that the plaintiffs somehow imposed pressure to forsake rest breaks in order to meet driving schedules and induced cumulative fatigue. “This is not supported by the first plaintiff’s policy guidelines or his purported compliance with them.” On lane-departure warnings: “The plaintiffs accept that none of its fleet are fitted with such warning systems, and denies any obligation to do so. “While desirable, in the absence of an established industry standard, I am not persuaded that either the first or second plaintiff was duty bound to install departure warning

and prevention technology in the truck. “In any event, on my reckoning of the reaction time of less than two seconds, disclosed by the CCTV footage, I do not accept that a lane departure warning would have made any difference.” Further, Judge Morzone accepted company evidence that “neither trailer exceeded the regulated weight limit”. “The defendant’s use of his mobile phone was illegal. He was convicted of the offence.” Dowling was ordered to pay $545,312.25, split $508,633.25 for the truck damage and $36,679 for the cargo, with further costs and interest.

Industry call to insurers on Covid comp claims How the nation’s workers compensation insurance sector tackles individual Covid-19 claims is in the National Road Transport Association’s (NatRoad’s) sights. The association states that the country’s largest workers compensation insurer, icare, is protecting New South Wales employers from such claims. NatRoad is calling on others to follow suit. It notes that icare says it will exclude any claims arising from a positive Covid-19 test, or as a result of receiving a Covid-19 vaccination, from having an impact on its policy holders. The agency says it wants to “protect any individual employer from disproportionately being impacted by Covid-19”. Workers’ compensation provides financial support if a person is injured at work or becomes sick due to work, including contracting Covid-19 whilst working, NatRoad observes.

It can include payments to cover employee wages while they are unable to work, payments for medical expenses and rehabilitation costs, and lump sum payments where an injury is deemed permanent. It can also include payments to families for work-related deaths. “Workers compensation premiums are a significant part of the cost of doing business for employers in our sector, no matter their size,” NatRoad CEO Warren Clark said. “After all that our industry has been through during the pandemic, this is good news. “We trust that workers compensation providers in the other jurisdictions will do the same as icare.” In some circumstances, Covid-19 may be a compensable workplace injury as a disease is included in the definition of injury under the NSW Workers Compensation Act.

Sheckell Transport latest DGL purchase The $8.9 million deal brings solid fleet boost for buyer Vertically integrated chemicals operation DGL has added Shackell Transport to its stable, hard on the heels of its AUSblue purchase announcement (see box). Founded in 1976, family-owned Shackell, a bulk-liquid transporter with exposure to the molasses sector, is also involved in regional and interstate distribution and linehaul services nationally for the the food, mining, chemical, agricultural, building and construction industries. Based in Pottsville, New South Wales, the firm brings with it 28 Kenworth and Volvo primer movers, 22 bulk liquid tankers and 31 largely Tieman and Barker trailers, many specialised, for a total price of $8.9 million – $7.8 million in cash and $1.1 million in shares. DGL underlined the vehicles’ importance, marking them as a significant fleet expansion. It also noted that the deal was first acquisition for DGL’s warehousing and distribution division (WDD), one that would “complement existing fleet, bringing synergies and greater control over the distribution of chemicals, while also enhancing the [DGL’s] visibility and access to the bulk chemical industry”, DGL founder and CEO Simon Henry said. “Shackell Transport further enhances our service offering to our customers, providing them with additional services and capabilities to align with their needs. “By expanding our inter-state transport and bulk tanker fleet,

we are cutting out the need for multiple suppliers, saving on transport costs and offering our customers all services in the sphere of chemical management.” “Investing in quality equipment sets us up for the long-term and ensures we are able to keep up with the demand the industry requires. A DGL spokesperson confirmed the company’s desire to build up and diversify, with the WDD a main focus

of that and the challenge now being to make “best use of all assets”. “Mark Cotelli and Tim Shackell, along with the whole Shackell team, will stay on and work with DGL to develop the division organically,” the spokesperson told ATN. In a favourable deal, the total acquisition price agreed was $8.9 million for both business and assets and equal to the asset value alone. The acquisition price consists of: • a cash payment of $7.8 million • the issue of 506,912 fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of DGL. At the time the parties negotiated the conditional commercial terms in September 2021, the consideration represented a valuation of 7 x FY21 normalised earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA), and based on the current market price of DGL shares, a valuation of 7.3 x FY21 normalised EBITDA.

DGL snaps up AUSblue Group DGL has bought AUSblue Group; expanding its AdBlue business locally. DGL counts the purchase as a strengthening of its portfolio, with AUSblue currently producing more than 50 million litres of AdBlue a year for its 628 customers in the mining, transport and government sectors, as well as to major fuel retailers across Australia. The company has a strong Australia-wide network, with seven manufacturing sites and a fleet of 10 bulk-liquid transporters. The acquisition will complement DGL’s existing AdBlue business in New Zealand and bring additional scale and capabilities to the chemical manufacturing division, enabling DGL to service large corporate customers across Australia and New Zealand. “I am pleased to announce the acquisition of AUSblue, which also marks our expansion into a completely new industry, the automotive formulation industry,” DGL founder and CEO Simon Henry said. “This is a significant move for DGL,

and one that is completely aligned to our growth strategy to diversify and broaden our service offerings across Australia and New Zealand. “Acquiring the leading manufacturer and distributor of AdBlue gives us a significant foothold in the automotive industry, with access to almost all meaningful customers that require the formulation of this chemical. “We also see a significant opportunity for our warehousing and distribution and environmental divisions to pick-up additional business from this acquisition.” Included in the acquisition price are transport vehicles and strategic property leases. These assets are expected to bring synergies to the group’s logistics, which will bring efficiencies coupled with the opportunity to expand further into the automotive chemical sector. The acquisition price consists of: • a cash payment of $2.2 million • the issue of 4,539,470 fully paid ordinary DGL shares.

Boske hails bittersweet FWO court win Vindication but company and founder count the cost The federal court has dismissed Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) charges centring on whether four drivers were engaged as contractors or were actually employees. The case was brought against Boske Road Transport, now known as Avert Logistics and named as such in the case. Managing director Rick Boske cast the case as a ‘David and Goliath’ struggle. “After three and a half years defending false allegations against my company and having our family name dragged through the mud, being falsely accused, we can finally breath again!” Rick Boske said on social media and to ATN. “When many industry colleagues prompted me ‘just pay them what they want’, guilty or not, rather than go to court to defend our innocence and suffer the consequences of excessive court costs wasn’t fair. It never sat well with me on principal. It was a huge decision to fight and costly, too, but we did. “It may have been the easy, cheaper alternative but what we were accused of was just wrong. We were not involved in sham contracting nor had we underpaid our contractors!” Boske noted that colleagues had distanced themselves from him in that time, as did customers “because of court action as they didn’t want to be tarnished”. He enumerated the cost of fighting the accusations as being: • lost accounts worth some $2 million a year

• pre-court growth of 25% a year since 2009 fell to zero growth in the past three and a half years • never reported a loss since the company started, exept the year of defending court action • legal costs of $200,000 • losing the Boske Road Transport name • “many many many sleepless nights”. The FWO had alleged that the number of obligations on drivers – relating to work hours, leave, clothes and truck branding and permission to work for third parties – together amounted to an employment relationship rather than one of independent contractors. If accepted, the underpayment would have amounted to $63,803. Judge Michael Jarrett disagreed, siding with Avert Logistics, which argued that the contractor relationship was sought and freely entered into and made clear at the start, and that the level of company control was far less stringent than alleged and work times were controlled by customers. Jarrett noted the contract gave the drivers the ability to decline work and indeed one had done so when unwell. He accepted that working for a customer was only allocated when the drivers messaged back confirming their acceptance. In the end, Jarrett ruled that the contract the drivers signed defined the relationship.

NHVR enforceable undertaking issued for two companies The NHVR recently accepted two enforceable undertakings (EU) from J.J. Richards & Sons Pty Ltd (JJR) and Brother Nature Pty Ltd (Brother) valued over $50,000 to correct activities around vehicle mass and loading requirements. The EU for JJR stems from a skip bin loaded to a heavy vehicle operated by JJR, which was found to be leaking water onto the vehicle and road surface. The steer axle of a heavy vehicle operated by Brother weighed 1,020kg, which is a severe mass breach over the allowed limit of 750kg. NHVR director of prosecutions Belinda Hughes noted that EUs offer an alternative to a court fine. “EUs are a legal agreement designed to correct the risks and behaviours that caused the offence to occur,” Hughes said. “Instead of proceeding with the court matter, which may only result in a fine, we have given the companies an opportunity to spend money on their own safety systems and procedures that will protect them and the broader community in the future.” As part of the EUs, JJR will complete $11,550 of corrective activities, including employing a consultant to review and certify the company’s load-restraint requirements and expanding on the company’s existing skip-truck operator handbook and training modules. Brother will develop and implement a series of safety and compliance training courses, systems and processes, which will cost $38,454.

Borderless operations part of updated NHVR vision Driver wellbeing a priority for recently reappointed board as it promises a modern regulatory approach The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) says delivering truly borderless operations and increasing flexibility for safe operators are key features of a modern regulatory approach, as outlined in its Strategic Directions 2021-2026 document. The NHVR sees its long-term strategy’s release coming at a “critical time” for industry, as the regulator pursues ambitious and relevant industry reform to the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL), currently under the spotlight.

“We know the majority of industry want to do the right thing – our job is to leverage this through data sharing and tailored regulatory approaches to lift safety standards right along the supply chain,” NHVR chair Duncan Gay said. “We have learnt a lot over the last five years, for example, the importance of driver physical and mental wellbeing and its impacts on road safety, and we have increased our capability to share safety insights with industry to collectively pursue better outcomes. “We are also going back to basics to develop a national understanding of freight infrastructure, ensuring

Regulator underlines aims in five-year strategy More fatigue risk management options, targeted compliance activities and promoting safer, cleaner and efficient heavy vehicles are some of the key initiatives the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) says it will deliver under the first year of its five-year strategy for heavy vehicle safety. NHVR CEO Sal Petroccitto says the Heavy Vehicle Safety Strategy 2021-25 and supporting Action Plan 2021-22 was developed in consultation with a wide range of government, industry and safety advocates. “This strategy outlines our collective ambitions in achieving better heavy vehicle safety outcomes and reducing the number of crashes, fatalities and serious injuries involving heavy vehicles,” Petroccitto said. “As a modern, risk-based regulator, this strategy will ensure we are targeting and minimising the greatest safety risks on our roads and along the supply chain by using data-driven intelligence. “The action plan provides a yearly outline that defines the regulator’s dayto-day operations and the partnership opportunities with our industry and stakeholders.”

The strategy contains three guiding themes that have been driven by industry, including creating positive change in individual behaviours and culture, driving uptake of a modern, safer heavy vehicle fleet, and influencing road network design and use to support road safety. The NHVR says the strategy would serve as an active program of work over the coming years. “As the heavy vehicle industry and supply chain grows, so too must our continued focus on delivering safety at the highest level,” Petroccitto said. “We continue to learn more about the maturity of our industry and underpinning our initiatives is a strong focus on empowering those who are best placed to manage safety risks to do so. “I want to thank the many stakeholders that have helped formulate this strategy and I look forward to the industry becoming even more safe, productive and efficient in the future.” The NHVR has already commenced delivering on key actions of the Heavy Vehicle Safety Strategy Action Plan 2021 – 22, with highlights including:

consistent assessments that open up productive networks which are critical to the success of our road transport task.” As part of the strategy, the NHVR says its key priority is completing the transition of regulatory services from the final HVNL’s participating jurisdictions. “Transitioning operations from New South Wales and Queensland will provide consistent regulation right across the eastern part of the country, ensuring industry experience and the same onroad interactions regardless of where people are working,” Gay continued. Gay was recently reappointed chair of the NHVR board, along with the reappointment of current board members Ken Lay and Robin StewartCrompton for a further three years. “The reappointment of Ken and Robin at this critical time for our industry will enable continuity in pursuing the opportunities ahead of us,” Gay said. “They join board members Julie Russell and Catherine Scott, who both bring a wealth of practical industry experience to the table.” The NHVR says its Strategy Directions will be reviewed in another five years, following the completion of transition of services.

• encourage the uptake of advanced fatigue management through new and clearer guidelines and direct engagement with transport companies • deliver improved and more accessible safety management system (SMS) material for industry, focused on practical and easy-to-implement safety business practices and initiatives, including the 9-Step SMS Roadmap launched in August • assist industry to deliver sector specific codes of practice • conduct intelligence-led national road safety operations alongside regulatory and enforcement partners • provide fleet purchasing guidance to increase awareness and uptake of vehicle safety and environmental technology • provide road managers with information and insights on heavy vehicle issues, through national and other working groups related to infrastructure policy, planning and investment • support safe heavy vehicles access through infrastructure assessments and development of assessment tools for road managers under the Strategic Local Government Asset Assessment Project.

News The Hyzon fuel-cell trucks are expected to be the first of their kind in Australia

CEFC in Queensland hydrogen fleet investment first Advancing Hydrogen Fund to help fuel world’s heaviest fuel cell electric trucks The Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC) has made a breakthrough investment in trucking. The federal government-owned enterprise has made its first investment through the Advancing Hydrogen Fund, committing up to $12.5 million to help Ark Energy Corporation produce green hydrogen to power what are expected to be the world’s heaviest fuel-cell electric trucks. The cash finance five purposebuilt, zero-emissions trucks and the construction of hydrogen production and refuelling infrastructure to fuel them, “helping deliver a more sustainable zinc supply chain”. As reported previously, the hydrogen fuel-cell electric trucks will deliver zinc ore from Townsville Port in Queensland to the Sun Metals Refinery, where they will refuel with green hydrogen produced on site, before taking zinc ingots back to the port in a 30km clean energy round trip. Ark Energy’s SunHQ hydrogen hub will include a 1MW PEM electrolyser, compressors, storage and refuelling infrastructure that will produce up to 158 tonnes of green hydrogen per annum.

It will be powered by renewable energy from the Sun Metals 124 MWac solar farm at the zinc refinery. It is hoped the project can give impetus to a hydrogen economy in Queensland, with the site able to supply green hydrogen for a range of customers and offering the potential for further decarbonisation. “Australia’s ability to continue reducing its emissions depends on how well we tackle those areas of the economy that are harder to abate,” CEFC CEO Ian Learmonth said. “So, it is significant that our first investment through the Advancing Hydrogen Fund will catalyse the decarbonisation of heavy transport, where electrification has proven challenging. “As a cleaner and more enduring energy source, green hydrogen offers important emissions abatement opportunities. “The trucks that work in the heavy transport sector have ultra-heavy payloads and typically operate around the clock, so cannot be off the road for several hours to recharge. “A lack of suitable vehicles in Australia poses another significant hurdle to decarbonisation.

“These unique Hyzon trucks will be custom-built for Australian conditions, fast tracking the switch to clean energy in Australia’s ultra-heavy transport sector by several years.” The 140-tonne rated Hyzon Motors hydrogen fuel-cell trucks are expected to be the first of their kind in Australia, replacing their diesel equivalents in the Townsville Logistics fleet. The initial five zero-emissions trucks are expected to abate about 1,300 tonnes of CO2 per year. The project is also supported by $3.02 million funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA), which has announced conditional approval, to be paid upon the commissioning of the refuelling facility and delivery of the five fuel cell electric trucks. “The CEFC and ARENA have a strong track record of working together to spearhead action in hard to abate sectors, as well as developing new industries to drive down emissions,” CEFC head of hydrogen Rupert Maloney said. “This project demonstrates again the importance of this cooperation as the drive to decarbonise continues to push into new territory. “Everything we learn about hydrogen use in heavy transport will also help others who are also keen to improve their sustainability despite similar challenges. “By demonstrating the suitability of what are expected to be the largest hydrogen fuel-cell electric trucks in the world, this investment has the potential to spearhead further takeup across the heavy transport sector, including mining and other industries such as rail, marine and even aviation. “This investment also enables us to lift our ambitions even further and support emissions reduction in the carbon intensive zinc supply chain.” It is the first phase of an ambitious strategy by Ark Energy that will initially focus on developing a domestic hydrogen industry in Queensland with the ultimate aim of exporting green hydrogen to Asia.

News Attracting and retaining skilled staff is a significant issue

‘Perfect storm’ creating skills shortage Survey of senior executives shows truck driving, robotics and data analytics shortfalls A powerful mix of legacy issues and recent developments is leaving supply chains increasingly hamstrung just as demand soars, according to a Deakin University report. The issue comes against a backdrop of the world’s supply chains undergoing massive transformation at an unprecedented pace, driven by an increasingly volatile geopolitical situation, an explosion in new technologies and an increased focus on ethical and sustainable practices. Recent research – undertaken by Deakin University’s Centre for Supply Chain and Logistics and Wayfinder: Supply Chain Careers for Women, an industry sponsored initiative that aims to create a diverse talent pipeline for the sector – explored the issue from the perspective of company executives and senior government officials. Centre director Dr Hermione Parsons and senior research fellow Dr Roberto Perez-Franco interviewed 21 senior executives from Australia’s industry and government about ongoing challenges and the impact of recent events on the ability to recruit and retain the workforce required for today’s supply chain sector. “Add the disruption to global supply chains because of the Covid-19 pandemic and you have the perfect storm,” Parsons said. “An increase in e-commerce and closed borders may have exacerbated it, but the problem was already there. “Furthermore, supply chain shortages are not just for products or

Dr Hermione Parsons

freight transport, but also for people, and the problem is far more complex than a shortage of truck drivers.” Michael Byrne, the former Linfox CEO who now chairs the Centre for Supply Chain and Logistics Industry Advisory Board and is Australia’s International Freight Controller General saw the issue as having a national economic impact. “This is important research, the biggest risk areas for most companies in maintaining their business competitiveness are not decisions about whether to automate or what digital systems to use, but how to attract and retain the workforce they need,” Byrne said. The researchers identified four challenges to recruiting in supply chain: • poor industry image • education gaps in candidates interviewed • poaching of staff between industries • the impact of the pandemic.

The biggest skills gaps were in truck driving, robotics and data analytics. “Perceptions may be shifting but, traditionally, supply chain has been a ‘Cinderella sector’ and often invisible,” Parsons, who is lead researcher and co-chair of Wayfinder, said. “If graduates are aware of the sector at all, they see it in terms of dirty warehouses and hi-vis vests, and most ‘fall into it’ rather than actively pursue a career in supply chain.” Perez-Franco underlined Parsons’ comment on truck driver recruitment being just part of the picture. “Many of our participants identified a shortage of talent in data analytics,” he said. “The issue they identified is more complex than the mere challenge of attracting graduates with data analytics qualifications. “The ability to understand and trust data can be just as important as the decisions about what to do with it. “The greatest capacity gap is in the combination of operational supply chain knowledge and data analytics.” The research highlighted the degree to which the modern supply chain workforce must learn new skills and constantly adapt to new ways of doing things. There is an expectation they will be tech-savvy and comfortable operating in a more automated, digitally enabled environment and it’s a challenge that not all are prepared for. “It will be critical to sell the next generation of supply chain workers on challenges and opportunities of a supply chain career,” Parsons said. “As well as the salary, millennials are looking for career paths that are both rewarding and flexible.” She classed the move to remote work as one of the most significant workforce trends during the pandemic, and noted that, while people will return to their offices, attitudes to working from home have changed. “A number of those we spoke to acknowledged there were difficulties in attracting women to the sector, but they also acknowledged there were shifts in the right direction,” Parsons said.

Infrastructure grip on drivers to continue: IA report Infrastructure Australia says labour demands yet to peak Some 4,900 truck drivers are undertaking the national infrastructurebuilding task, a major Infrastructure Australia (IA) report shows. This figure grew to more than 5,000 in early 2020, from some 4,000 in 2016, and barely 300 are expected to be freed up for other roles by 2025, according to IA’s first Infrastructure Market Capacity report findings. For a trucking industry struggling to find skilled drivers to fulfil regular transport needs, these are the most crucial statistics, though others may be more welcome due to the economic activity they entail. The thrust of IA’s findings are that there is a surge underway in demand for skills, labour, plant and materials due to the rapid increase in public infrastructure investment. Key report findings are: • a forecast average annual growth rate of 33% as industry reports reduced confidence in their capacity to deliver on-time and on-budget • industry indicates a high confidence of delivering 10–15% annual growth, but a low confidence in delivering growth over 18% • demand for plant, labour, equipment, and materials will be two-thirds higher than the previous five years Over the next three years it is

expected there will be: • 120% average growth in demand for materials • 125% growth in demand for equipment • 140% growth in demand for plant • the peak of demand for skills is 48% higher than supply. Meeting this demand would require annual growth of 25% over the next two years, which is more than eight times higher than the projected annual growth rate of 3.3% • 34 of the 50 public infrastructure occupations identified are potentially in shortage. The Infrastructure Market Capacity report responds to a request from the Council of Australian Governments in March 2020 for IA to regularly report on the capacity of the market to deliver on the record investment pipeline. The report underscores the need for Australia’s governments and industry to work collaboratively, to advance sector-wide reform and reduce the risk of cost escalation and delays in the delivery of major infrastructure projects. “The Infrastructure Market Capacity report is an Australian-first and a new data capability for Infrastructure Australia,” chief executive Romilly Madew said. “It provides a level of visibility of the major project pipeline and resulting

demand for skills, labour and materials that governments have not had until now. “Major public infrastructure activity will approximately double over the next three years, peaking at $52 billion in 2023. “This record investment creates new opportunities for local business and employment, however, also risks constraints in the capacity of the market to meet this growth in investment. “In mid-2023, the employment in the infrastructure sector will need to grow from 183,000 people today to more than 288,000. Potential shortfall in jobs being filled is forecast to exceed 105,000, with one in three jobs advertised going unfilled. “This presents an opportunity for further employment, but there is also a risk these roles will be unfilled. “This research further underscores the need for a coordinated project pipeline to manage capacity constraints and provide confidence and certainty for both industry and government. “While infrastructure investment is rightfully a key component of our national Covid-19 recovery, we need to ensure we are equipped to deliver this once-in-a-generation infrastructure spend.” Reforms IA sees as required across the infrastructure sector include: • active portfolio and pipeline management to smooth the project pipeline, attract private investment and manage resource constraints • improved front-end engineering and design to improve investment decision making and manage risk • increased collaboration with industry to develop industry capacity and capability, and enable the local supply chain • embedding digital practices, including a more consistent and scalable approach • increased public sector capacity and capability to recognise the legitimate, but differing roles of each level of government in the delivery of the infrastructure pipeline.

Qube Energy nails Chevron Australia deal

NSW and Qld blitzes focus on rural areas The Traffic and Highway Command of the New South Wales Police Force has given details of the latest blitz in the west of the state Following a number of serious heavy vehicle crashes in Central West NSW, including two fatal crashes, officers from North West Highway Patrol together with Transport for NSW heavy vehicle inspectors participated in Operation Convoy on October 25-29. More than 150 heavy vehicles were stopped during the operation. The results were put at: • 156 drug tests without a positive result • one heavy vehicle detected speeding • six load restraint offences • 27 fatigue (hours) offences • 97 work diary offences with six charges laid for critical and severe fatigue breaches, the drivers having to appear in court later this year. Additionally, more than 50 offences were detected by light vehicle drivers, amounting to three positive drug tests and eight charges were laid for driving whilst disqualified, driving whilst suspended, drink driving, possessing prohibited drugs and goods in custody. “With many people preparing for harvest in regional areas who may not be familiar with laws surrounding fatigue or load restraints, please go to www.nhvr.gov.au or google Load Restraint Guide for more information,” the force advised. Meanwhile, the Queensland Police force has released the outcome of that state’s recent Operation Stock Check effort, led by the Major and Organised Crime Squad (MOCS).

Held on October 23-24, MOCS Rural investigators, assisted by the Road Policing Unit and local police, conducted a high-visibility static road operation on the Warrego Highway at Warra, aimed at checking vehicles carrying livestock. Operation Stock Check is part of a national, proactive, policing focus to prevent and disrupt the movement of stolen stock. The operation appeared similar to a successful Western Australian effort in June. In addition to inspecting livestock vehicles and paperwork and monitoring for biosecurity compliance, the operation also focused on dangerous driving behaviour including drink and drug driving. Results included: • nine people arrested on nine charges including four drug drivers • 13 traffic infringement notices issued, including for speeding • one biosecurity penalty infringement notice issued for failing to complete a stock movement record • 504 roadside breath tests conducted. “Reported livestock theft in Queensland is the highest it has been in recent times, which is why we are encouraging rural communities to remain vigilant and report suspicious activity to police,” MOCS Rural detective inspector Troy Pukallus said.

Qube Energy has hailed a longterm contract with Chevron Australia for the provision of supply base services in Karratha, Onslow and Perth The deal, for an undisclosed sum, is to include “significant investment” in new technologies and systems in Western Australia. It is expected to leverage synergies from the facilities’ assets and provide the broader oil and gas industry “with exciting new operational options”, Qube Energy said. “Qube’s diversified experience in complete supply chain and logistics services in the oil and gas market ensured that Qube was best placed to deliver Chevron Australia with a truly integrated operational solution, incorporating high safety standards that aligned with Chevron’s best practice requirements,” the company said. The services include: • facility leasing and management • cross-dock, pack, consolidate, dispatch, staging, loadout and transport • inventory material management • warehouse and yard storage; quarantine management, fuel distribution at Wheatstone Downstream • other ad-hoc services. As part of the contract, Qube will assume operational management of the existing Chevron facilities in Gap Ridge, Karratha, and Hazelmere, Perth, and operate these as multi-share facilities with Qube’s other key clients, as well as continuing to service Chevron’s requirements. “This arrangement will provide significant advantages to Chevron and Qube’s other oil and gas clients through the creation of value, incorporating numerous synergies and efficiencies that will be gained by implementing industry best practice services and technologies,” Qube said. “Both the Gap Ridge and Hazelmere facilities are modern and fit-for-purpose supply bases that Chevron developed specifically to their high standards, and Qube’s clients can now take advantage of these facilities in these key strategic locations.”

Autonomous Army trucks project passes major milestone

The Australian Army has been trialling autonomous truck technology

Defence looks to take to open road with Australian technology

The Australian Army fleet has stolen an autonomous trucks march on the civilian on-road trucking sector, reporting success in recent trials. The $3.5 million project to develop truck platooning technology passed a key milestone during a recent twoweek project at the Department of Defence’s Trials Proving Establishment

at Monegeetta, Victoria that involved a five-vehicle convoy. The autonomous leader-follower vehicle technology, using modified Rheinmetall MAN Land 121 40M rigid medium trucks, was developed under a contract between the Institute for Intelligent Systems Research and Innovation (IISRI) at Deakin University,

UNSW engineers call for autonomous-vehicle lanes A University of NSW (UNSW) study on that proposes a freeway network design with exclusive lanes for autonomous vehicles. The issues of autonomous vehicles and truck platooning have been exercising government and industry minds for several years now, with the safety relationship between vehicles with drivers and those without front of mind. Aimed more at urban functions for cars but with obvious implications for trucks, UNSW engineers used computer modelling of mixed scenarios. They found dedicated lanes significantly improved the overall safety and traffic flow in a hybrid network of pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles.

Lead author Dr Shantanu Chakraborty from UNSW School of Civil and Environmental Engineering insisted that if the road and transport network is not prepared for these vehicles when they enter the market, it will significantly hinder the travel experience of all road users. “Traffic congestion costs the economy billions of dollars every year in all the extra time spent commuting,” Chakraborty said. “The proposed model will help minimise interaction with legacy vehicles and reduce overall congestion on the road. “The mix of autonomous vehicles and legacy vehicles will cause issues on the road network unless there is proper

and Army’s Robotic and Autonomous Systems Implementation and Coordination Office (RICO). The Army, through RICO, continues to work with IISRI and the Australian Road Research Board on the potential transfer of the capability testing onto public roads with further refinement, performance enhancement and understanding of road rules. “There are a number of technical and regulatory challenges to address to get these platforms into common use,” defence industry minister Melissa Price said. “The ongoing efforts will enable Army to navigate these challenges.” The federal government sees development of robotic and autonomous systems as crucial to meeting Australia’s future operational issues, including for humanitarian assistance and disaster relief, and in combat operations. “The completion of this assessment within one year of the allocation of the funding demonstrates the strong industry and defence partnerships in experimentation, prototyping and exploration of autonomous vehicle and new technologies,” Price said. “These technologies are ‘disruptive technologies’ that provide marked advantages on the modern battlefield by bolstering ADF [Australian Defence Force) capability while protecting Australian personnel.”

modelling during this transition phase. If we get caught out and we’re not ready, we won’t reap the full benefits of the technology behind these autonomous vehicles.” Adding an exclusive lane for autonomous vehicles means removing a lane from legacy drivers – so this may cause a little disruption, he added. “If you look at our existing network, we already have something similar with dedicated bus lanes – so we’re not reinventing the wheel here.” Variable signboards could be used to change the lane designation based on the traffic condition at the time. This would mean, during peak hours, roads could be used more efficiently depending on the traffic conditions at the time.

News Pacific National has commissioned 50 new C44 Evolution freight locomotives

SWA releases working in heat guide Advice for managers published as summer looms and risks rise Safe Work Australia (SWA) has offered advice to managers on how to handle heat risks facing their staff. Pointedly, the guide is addressed to any person conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU), highlighting their responsibility under work health and safety regulations. The same goes for company officers, such as directors. The Managing the Risks of Working in Heat – Guidance Material document notes three PCBU duties: primary duty of care (WHS Act section 19); duty to consult (WHS Act section 49); duty in relation to general workplace facilities (WHS Regulation 40). PCBUs and officers “must ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that workers, including volunteers, and other people are not exposed to health and safety risks arising from the business or undertaking,” the advice stated. “This duty requires the person to manage health and safety risks by eliminating them so far as is reasonably practicable, and if this is not reasonably practicable, by minimising those risks so far as is reasonably practicable. “ They should consult workers when: • identifying hazards and assessing risks to health and safety arising from the work carried out or to be carried out by the business or undertaking • making decisions about ways to eliminate or minimise those risks • making decisions about the adequacy of facilities for the welfare of workers • monitoring the conditions at any workplace under the management or control of the PCBU. PCBUs and officers must ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that ventilation enables workers to carry out work without risk to health and safety and workers carrying out work in extremes of heat or cold are able to carry out work without risk to health and safety. “You must consult your workers and their health and safety representatives [if any] when deciding how to manage the risks of working in heat,” the document stated. While the freight transport and logistics sector, like others, is not addressed specifically, some aspects it noted are relevant. This included that workers on performancebased salaries are generally less likely to reduce their work rate to prevent overexertion, the fatigue effects of heat-waves and the susceptibility of older workers both naturally and due to their medication.

Pacific National begins loco fleet regeneration Rail giant acquires new UGL freight locomotives in line with ESG strategy Pacific National is hailing a significant recent investment in its haulage capabilities, commissioning 50 new C44 Evolution freight locomotives. Under a $297 million contract, UGL will design and manufacture the fleet in Newcastle. The first of their kind in Australia, the new locos will have lower emissions and greater fuel efficiency, thereby helping deflect environmental criticism from other transport modes. Pacific National notes the procurement supports its environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategy, notably the upgrade of its fleet over five years. “The C44 Evolution locomotives will be among the most technologically advanced, fuel efficient and environmentally compatible diesel locomotives in Australia,” Pacific National said. Once rolled out, Pacific National expects its emissions reduction will equate to 15,000 tonnes a year, with a CO2 reduction of 300 tonnes per locomotive a year. According to Pacific National CEO Paul Scurrah, the C44 Evolution Series units will form part of the company’s ongoing fleet rejuvenation program providing significant ESG benefits to both Pacific National and its customers. “This is a key piece of our locomotive fleet strategy and directly aligns with our ESG strategy,” Scurrah said. “It will assist Pacific National with boosting service reliability, reducing emissions and fuel consumption while increasing our ability to

respond to the growing demand for future rail freight capacity.” The new locos feature Wabtec technology to reduce emissions, fuel consumption and maintenance costs, and increase reliability. “This is an exciting time for Australia’s largest private rail freight company and will mean Pacific National can continue to deliver what matters to our customers with the first of the new locomotives scheduled to be delivered in late 2023,” Scurrah said. The trains are expected to meet and surpass a number of Australian and global emissions measurements including the stringent US Tier 3 standards for particulate matter. “UGL’s unique position as Australia’s only manufacturer and maintainer of Australian-made locomotives allows us to ensure a strong homegrown supply chain and ongoing local employment,” UGL MD Doug Moss said. “The C44 Evolution locomotive is better for the environment with lower emissions and better fuel efficiency than anything Australia has seen before.” Initially they will be deployed across Pacific National’s intermodal/ interstate operations, supporting its planned capacity increase of 25 per cent over the next four years. They are also destined for the future Inland Rail. With Pacific National’s strong focus on improving the efficiency of its locomotives and the superior technology on-board, each locomotive will have the capacity to simulate and optimise operation to increase energy efficiency and safety, it says.

News A truck driver was struck at the Macleay Valley Way changeover point

SafeWork NSW alert on heavy vehicle changeovers Lack of high-vis clothing cited in fatality as authority outlines control measures SafeWork NSW has issued an incident alert after a 52-year-old truck driver was fatally injured in July on the Macleay Valley Way at Clybucca, in northern NSW. The location is commonly used as a changeover point for heavy vehicles travelling between Sydney and Brisbane. “On the night of the incident, several heavy vehicles were parked on the shoulder of both sides of the road,” SafeWork described. “The worker, who was not wearing high-visibility clothing at

the time, was struck by an oncoming heavy vehicle. “The heavy vehicle was driving in the middle of the road at the time of the incident.” The safety watchdog implores freight workers consider ‘reasonably practicable’ control measures to manage the risks associated with heavy vehicle changeovers. All transport operators should: • conduct risk assessments of heavy vehicle changeover locations • identify suitable control measures such as safe locations

for undertaking tasks that are related to heavy vehicle changeovers and ensuring the area has sufficient lighting when it’s dark • provide training and instruction to workers on the hazards associated with work tasks and safe systems of work for heavy vehicle changeovers • provide workers with personal protective equipment and information, training and instruction for its proper use, wearing and storage • have systems in place to monitor compliance. All drivers should: • when coupling and uncoupling trailers, park the prime mover and trailer on a flat, level and hard surface in a safe location • follow reasonable instruction, policy and procedures from the transport operator • operate vehicles and conduct work tasks in accordance with work health and safety laws and the National Heavy Vehicle Law • wear appropriate personal protective equipment required for the tasks to be undertaken.

Lindsay discharges enforceable undertaking Lindsay Australia’s enforceable undertaking (EU) following a fatality has satisfied SafeWork NSW and is now discharged The EU, which was agreed following a 2015 depot accident contained eight core deliverables and 30 supporting deliverables. Progress on them means no further action is required of the transport and logistics enterprise. “The company worked cooperatively with SafeWork NSW to finalise the deliverables throughout the duration of the EU,” listed Lindsay’s board stated in a stock exchange note. “The various strategies implemented under the EU will bring positive workplace health and safety impact for the company, the transport industry and the broader community generally.”

Meanwhile, in an investor presentation earlier in the month, Lindsay detailed a plethora of challenges to its Lindsay Transport and Lindsay Fresh Logistics arms in the past year, along with other developments. Most of them were attributable to Covid-19 impacts to various degrees. These included: • border restrictions, continual testing requirements lockdowns and operational delays • rising cost pressures due to supply chain issues, increasing compliance requirements and labour shortages • industry-wide challenges of driver shortages and an ageing

workforce, which it believes are likely to be exacerbated as mandatory vaccinations requirements are implemented. This is seen as supporting its diversification into rail freight usage • equipment lead times increasing to 12–18 months due to global supply chain issues, leading a spike in second hand equipment markets. However, it notes the impact to container lead times “has been minimal”. Despite the difficulties the company stated that the transport arm’s “diversified network and service strategy combined with ongoing investment in its sites and fleet places it in a strong position to mitigate these challenges into the future”.

Executive appointments

Karantoni new Primary Connect managing director Rogers to head Northline finance and administration Northline has appointed experienced chief financial officer (CFO) Adam Rogers as its general manager, finance and administration to support continued expansion. The national and international logistics business noted that Rogers brings with him expertise in commercial and financial management, and corporate governance and risk. “Adam will be a strong addition to Northline’s executive team, and I look forward to working with him and the team as we expand our operations and services in key Australian and global markets” Northline CEO Craige Whitton said. Rogers has been the CFO for lifting and rigging equipment firm A Noble & Son and vice-president finance and commercial with fluids firm Dixon Asia Pacific for eight and six years, respectively. Northline noted he has held senior finance and commercial roles in Australia and the UK, firstly with PwC and then in-house with national and international firms spanning recruitment, packaging and manufacturing. He holds a Bachelor of Commerce from Flinders University and is a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants and Governance Institute of Australia. “Northline has enjoyed success in a challenging and highly competitive industry for nearly 40 years because they’ve invested and innovated, and they’ve focused on customer service and building strong relationships with their customers,” Rogers said. “I’m looking forward to being part of the talented and dedicated Northline team.”

Annette Karantoni has been elevated to Woolworths Group’s chief supply chain officer and Primary Connect managing director. Karantoni will oversee the end-to-end logistics operations to Woolworths’ own retail businesses and a growing number of external partners. Currently Woolworths’ director of B2C eCommerce, she will formally transition to the new role in February and also join the Woolworths Group Exco. Karantonu has spent the last 20 years working in a wide range of roles across Woolworths Group, most recently overseeing the doubling of eCommerce demand over the last 18 months. Before working in eCommerce, she led the development and investment roadmap for the Woolworths future supply chain network. She has also held senior roles in supermarkets buying, marketing and replenishment.

Karantoni replaces outgoing Primary Connect MD Paul Graham, who took the reins at Australia Post. “We’re delighted to appoint Annette to what is an important leadership role in our business,” Woolworths Group CEO Brad Banducci said. “Annette has done an outstanding job rapidly expanding our eCommerce business to meet the surge in demand we’ve seen for online shopping over the past 18 months. “As we continue to expand our retail ecosystem, our supply chain network will be critical to both the foundations and future aspirations of our business. “Our distribution centres are an essential link in the nation’s food and grocery supply chains and we’re continuing to invest in our network to improve range, service levels and resilience.

Grehan to lead Linx Cargo Care Group Linx Cargo Care Group has appointed Brett Grehan to the Group CEO role, replacing the outgoing Anthony Jones. Grehan joins the company after 28 years with consultancy McKinsey & Company, most recently as a senior partner. His history combines commercial and strategic expertise, accumulating strong sector experience in industrials including rail and steel, logistics, telecommunications and private equity, the company lists. “In these sectors, Brett has worked overseas in cities like London, Atlanta and Mumbai, as well as delivering projects for clients in New Zealand, south east Asia, Hong Kong and China. “The LINX Cargo Care Group Board is pleased to have Brett join LINX CCG in this crucial leadership position where he will, together with the LINX CCG senior leadership team, lead and guide the Group sustainably forward amidst the ever-changing operational and economic landscape. “Brett’s broad cross-sector experience and valuable insights and perspectives from his many years with McKinsey & Company, will benefit our Group and our

position in Australia’s and New Zealand’s logistics supply chains.” Grehan officially started on October 25 but had begun working with senior leadership on the transition before Jones’ departure at the end of September. Linx had announced Patrick Boocock as the successor in June, but later notified he had resigned to take on a new senior leadership role external to Linx and major shareholder Brookfield in Asia, which will leverage his earlier experience working there.

Diagnostics: Industry Voice

A complete waste of time and money NHVL reform process needs a new start The review of the national truck law has proved to be a waste of time and money. We need to start again. The review started in November 2018, after the ATA and our members pointed out the problems with the existing law. We pointed out that the law was stitched together from 13 different sources. All that was missing were the bolts in its neck. We highlighted the complexity of the work and rest hour rules and the massive fines for drivers who made mistakes in their work diaries. And we pointed out that the industry’s productivity had slumped since the law was introduced. We provided comprehensive input to the review team at the National Transport Commission (NTC), including 11 detailed policy submissions. Each submission involved a review of best practice and extensive internal consultation through our policy committees. We have a series of these committees, which consist of trucking business owners and managers, as well as staff from our member associations. Throughout the pandemic – when they were frantically keeping Australia’s freight moving and borders open – our committee members found time to provide exceptional input to the review. They shouldn’t have wasted their time. I deeply regret asking for their help. In the three years since it started, the review has not resulted in a single change to the national truck law or its regulations. Instead, last month, we saw the NTC’s first piece of finished work

David Smith, Chair, Australian Trucking Association

on the review: a proposal to replace standard hours with a new system of counting work and rest time. The proposal would have been catastrophic. It would have reduced the income of a semi-trailer driver doing local deliveries by $24,000 per year. The NTC sent the proposal out for one week of industry consultation. It was based on a handful of academic research papers. The ATA’s recommendations were ignored. In its consultation meeting on the proposal, the NTC wouldn’t let us raise critical points, such as the need to trial the proposed hours either on the road or in a simulator. After a week of vigorous discussion, the NTC decided to withdraw part of the proposal. We should all welcome the NTC’s

decision, but it does not fix all the problems with its approach to fatigue or address the broader issues with the review. Some people in the industry have argued that changes to standard hours aren’t a concern. Drivers could just get some training and move onto Basic Fatigue Management (BFM), they say. But another part of the review is looking at BFM and National Heavy Vehicle Accreditation Scheme (NHVAS) accreditation more generally. We simply don’t know where that part of the review will end up. The ATA made this point to the NTC. We argued that a detailed look at work and rest hours was the wrong place to start, because the best answer was so dependent on the rest of the law. Our arguments were, once again, ignored. When they meet in December, Australia’s transport ministers should start again. They should put together a panel of actual experts, supported by a small staff, to develop an approach to the national truck law based on best practice from around the world and industry insights. The NTC’s work on the review would be an input to the panel’s work, as would the detailed submissions put by industry. Given this head start, the expert panel should be able deliver a law that could come into force in 2023, a year ahead of any timeframe that the NTC process is likely to achieve. And you could expect it to be a much better law than this waste of time and money.

South Australian infrastructure and transport minister Corey Wingard

New PBS access notice provides permit-free travel NHVR notes importance of immediate access for equipment decision The National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) has highlighted a new notice that aims to give eligible performance-based standards (PBS) vehicles immediate network access when they receive a vehicle approval with a Tier 1 bridge assessment. Under the notice, all PBS vehicles must pass various safety and infrastructure standards, such as acceleration capability, turning space, pavement wear, and mass and dimension limits. “Previously operators of these approved PBS combinations would have to apply for a permit after receiving their vehicle approval,” South Australian infrastructure and transport minister Corey Wingard said. “This National Class 2 Performance Based Standards (Tier 1) Authorisation Notice 2021 eliminates the requirement of a permit application and allows operators automatic access to approved networks. “This is another example of governments and the regulator reducing red tape and providing increased access for the heavy vehicle industry, which has continued to keep Australia moving during the pandemic.” NHVR CEO Sal Petroccitto said the notice establishes a platform to provide operators with guaranteed PBS access before they build their vehicle. “Operators have told us that knowing they have immediate network access would be a big factor in deciding whether to invest in a PBS vehicle or expand their PBS fleet,” Petroccitto continued. “It will certainly encourage the take-up of these smarter, safer and more-productive PBS vehicles in the Australian heavy vehicle fleet. “We will continue to build on this notice by starting to roll out a higher productivity PBS notice later this year.” The National Class 2 Performance Based Standards (Tier 1) Authorisation Notice 2021 applies in South Australia, the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Tasmania and Victoria.

HVIA welcomes NHVR statement on PBS changes The heavy vehicle industry has welcomed the NHVR’s announcement of a new gazette notice that reduces reliance on permits for some performance-based standards (PBS) vehicles. The NHVR will give eligible PBS vehicles immediate network access where the mass limits in the vehicle approval are compliant with a Tier 1 bridge assessment. HVIA national policy and government relations manager Greg Forbes said the initiative will provide purchasers with greater assurances around access before their new PBS vehicles are built. “This level of certainty is a key to increasing the uptake of these vehicles,” Forbes said. “We commend the NHVR and the participating states for working on these types of notices, however, we still have a long way to go. “It is disappointing that Queensland is not participating in this notice; it is very important that we have clarity on access arrangements across all states.

“There are also still a large number of PBS vehicles that are not yet covered by these types of notices. “The whole community benefits when PBS vehicles are given better access. “PBS vehicles reduce the number of vehicle movements for a given freight task, resulting in environmental, safety and productivity benefits.” Forbes says operators risk their investment in state-of-the-art PBS technology being unusable until a comprehensive set of notices is in place. “If their access permits are delayed or worse, refused – the vehicles are unusable, even though the equipment has been approved for production,” he said. “We look forward to the High Productivity PBS Notice that the NHVR has promised to release later this year. “This week’s gazette notice is a promising move in the right direction; we encourage he NHVR and states to keep working on these issues.”

Feature The industry is looking for HVNL reform to take it into the 21st century

Two steps back HVNL reform process threatens to turn into a disaster for government and industry. Rob McKay writes Australian Trucking Association (ATA) chair David Smith encapsulated the sense of deep frustration and disappointment the industry feels on the path that governments and the relevant federal entity have taken the National Heavy Vehicle Law (HVNL) reform process. “It was all for nothing,” Smith said of the three years of consultation, analysis and advice. “Over that time, the ATA had given the National Transport Commission [NTC], which has carriage of the reform, had received 11 detailed policy submissions, each involving a review of best practice and consultation with its members. “We spent tens of thousands of dollars on consultants. “In some cases, we provided the NTC with draft legislation that could have been introduced into parliament immediately.” While that might have sounded almost wistful, it hid much stronger feelings around the new direction. It marks a dramatic change to the industry’s view from just six months ago that broke out into the public domain last month. Back in June, the ATA had lauded the rejection of proposed business licences and the national operation standards.

That was part of the Infrastructure and Transport Ministers’ Meeting (ITMM) communiqué in late May, which gave little inkling of anything amiss. “Ministers received an update on the HVNL review and thanked industry for their constructive engagement with the review to date,” the communiqué said of the process that began in November 2018. “The perspectives of industry have played an important role in shaping the forward program of work that was agreed by Ministers. “This program of work will be significantly progressed with final legislation to be presented to Ministers in mid-2023. “The NTC will deliver more detailed advice to Ministers over the next 12 months on key areas of reform such as fatigue management, heavy vehicle access, increased use of higher productivity vehicles, assurance schemes, duties, and driver health. “Ministers discussed the significant reform opportunity presented by the review of the HVNL. “Ministers agreed that options developed should be ambitious to realise the potential productivity and safety benefits for industry and the economy more broadly.” So, what happened?

New faces ATN first became aware of rumblings of the most recent discontent in September, but reform concern existed even before the communiqué. The National Road Transport Association (NatRoad), for one, had been critical of the NTC’s Consultation Regulatory Impact Statement last year, calling it “seriously flawed” and containing “no genuine cost benefit analysis”. But that was nothing compared with the outright opposition to the process seen these past few weeks. If this was how the crucial issue of fatigue was being treated, what hope for the rest? The rumblings related to a new round of consultations in the lead-up to presenting the final legislative advice to transport ministers. The feeling was that, along with a senior personnel changes at the NTC – most pertinently the replacement of executive leader productivity Paul Davies with executive leader regulatory reform Aaron de Rozario as the head of its effort – had come a silo-ing of the consultation process. This had led to broad interaction between the industry and the authorities of various state and territory jurisdictions being curtailed. Later, South Australian Road Transport Association (SARTA) CEO Steve Shearer told ATN that, at a round-table meeting on fatigue following discontent becoming public, he had sought names of jurisdiction representatives that had been allowed to attend solely in an observer capacity. Barely any names had been involved previously in the reform process, Shearer stated. “It actually shows in what’s being proposed because it looks like they’ve started from scratch without any grasp,” he said. Levee breaks When industry patience broke, the report was loud and directed at the lead-up to the fatigue round table workshop last month. NatRoad CEO Warren Clark unloaded, saying the process was

Feature Fatigue compliance reform was a lightning rod for the industry

now directionless and unfocused. “Turn off the barbecue. It’s cooked. It’s not progressing the reform agenda in any meaningful way,” Clark said pithily. “The NTC is supposed to simplify the HVNL to improve productivity and safety – instead it’s fiddling with the operational details of fatigue management.” Clark said that the NTC’s latest round of consultation had consisted of a flawed questionnaire, and a proposal to rearrange fatigue standard hours by slashing them by 17%. “That fatigue schedule proposal was based on outdated evidence and would make many operations so uneconomical that half the country’s drivers would be put out of work,” Clark said. “We were given a week to respond. “The questionnaire was not fit for purpose – it ignored the twin burdens of individual driver compliance costs and the enforcement penalties. “The questions asked were not based on real-world experience.” Counting the hours Given the importance of fatigue regulations to the Australian Livestock and Rural Transporters Association (ALRTA), it unsurprisingly chastised the NTC, with national president Scott McDonald saying that the both the proposal and the consultation timeframe were naïve and unworkable. “ALRTA is extremely disappointed that industry was given just one week to consider refined proposals relating to the Fatigue Management General Schedule,” McDonald said. “This timeframe was wholly inadequate for engaging grass-roots

members on an issue of core importance for the HVNL review. “Furthermore, all of industry was surprised to find that the proposed general schedule entirely failed to appropriately balance the fundamental HVNL objectives of safety and productivity. “It is almost unfathomable, that after three years of industry consultation, a general schedule would be proposed that immediately invoked a total rejection by industry. “While ALRTA acknowledges that the proposed general schedule has been developed with reference to fatigue research, we assert that it was, and remains, possible for the NTC to develop a general schedule that fully aligns with ministerial directives while delivering a net improvement in both safety and productivity. “The current proposal will negatively impact productivity, wages, return on capital, the viability of some journeys and driver shortages. “With a limit of 12 hours per day of work time, it is not necessary to increase the long continuous rest

The NTC withdrew the driving hours proposal that the ATA said would cost a typical local delivery driver about $24,000 per year

break to eight hours or to introduce a new rule prohibiting driving after 14 hours from the end of a long rest break. “These rules will reduce flexibility and motivate tired drivers to keep working instead of resting as and when they need to. “Before this process can reasonably move forward, the general schedule must be rebalanced to take account of road transport operational realities in an Australian context. “More generally, it is disappointing that the review has been underway for three years and we are still examining unbalanced, uncosted options with one-week consultation timeframes. “As a dedicated and mature transport policy commission, the NTC should have the experience and resources to do much better.” But the real bombshell came from the ATA, with the industry threat to walk away from the process altogether. “The ATA is consulting its members urgently about our future engagement with the HVNL review process,” Smith told ATN. He continued: “The NTC’s proposal for the fatigue management general schedule would reduce the income of a typical local delivery driver by about $24,000 per year. “It would make it impossible for general schedule drivers to operate between capital cities. “Despite the catastrophic impact of the proposal on the industry’s productivity and the incomes of its workers, the NTC circulated this proposal for just one week of industry consultation. “It is not good enough. The review has failed.” Old ground With a lack of transparency from government when things change comes suspicion and a search for logical explanation. After three years in a consultation that bordered on the collegiate, how to process a new approach viewed as regressive? And what is the meaning of it? One source later put to ATN that

A the NTC’s approach was, effectively, “what ministers wanted”, though no explanation was offered as to why or under whose advice. Shearer pointed to a deeper malaise in the undertaking, with a divergence from modernising law towards a focus more heavily on enforcement and the closing off of scope for industry to engage with jurisdictions collectively. “I raised at an industry advisory group meeting convened by the NTC the fact that this would not succeed if we do not have substantial effective engagement between industry and jurisdictions,” Shearer told ATN. “If jurisdictions skulk off into the shadows and meet and they formulate and structure the proposals to go before the ministers for the heavy vehicle law and they refuse to meet industry to have frank discussion . . . “What we say is that, if they formulate that proposal without robust discussion with industry, because they are not operators or drivers, they will unintentionally, inevitably, make serious mistakes because they do not understand the operational consequences. “They will put things to ministers that we will then have to set about tearing apart. “No ministers want that, I’m quite sure. “It will only delay the process and what alarms me is that the mindset of the senior managers at the NTC responsible for this work are adamant that there will be no industry discussion. “It’s appalling, it’s extraordinary and it’s downright irresponsible “But that is the very clear advice and they have confirmed that advice with senior officers not at the NTC.” He discerned mid-level resistance,

particularly from Victoria and New South Wales, driven by an enforcement mentality and mindset, insisting a ‘Hume Highway-centric heavy vehicle law’ will fail for the rest of the country. “So, they come up with things that are designed to constrain and restrain the industry instead of facilitating productivity and safety – looking at it from a risk-based and safety-focused approach,” Shearer said. “Because that sort of approach is not very common in mid-levels within organisations. “Whether it be police or whether it be mid-levels of transport agencies, most of them have not made that mental adjustment and it’s a serious problem.” He was also highly concerned that the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR), with its national role, powers and understanding, had been allowed very limited input into the whole review. “It adds up to a belligerent approach from New South Wales and Victorian officials to frame the new law the way they want it,” Shearer said. “That’s not acceptable. They are entitled to their opinion but they will fail to deliver what ministers said was necessary, which is risk-based, safety-focused law that facilitates productivity.”

Shearer was also critical of the piecemeal approach to aspects of fatigue management, noting that considering standard hours without considering its implications for basic fatigue management (BFM) and black-letter law enforcement was untenable. Though the NTC would insist that jurisdictions have no part to play in its approach, contrary to Shearer’s concern, he said it was made plain at the meeting that many new proposals objectionable to the industry were not its own. Shearer also noted that the issue had motivated the SARTA membership more than any issue bar the Road Safety Remuneration Tribunal (RSRT) drama of the previous decade. Read the room Despite efforts to downplay the gravity of industry discontent, the idea that it would even consider the option to reject the process altogether, let alone canvass it publically, would have seemed unthinkable just a few months ago. It may be an indication of where the NTC is at now that it was caught off-guard at the vociferous nature of industry resistance but also seems to view it as the regular argy-bargy of reform. Three days after the discontent was laid bare by ATN and as the roundtable was about to begin, NTC CEO and commissioner Dr Gillian Miles gave reassurance that industry reform input was valued and that NTC minds were still open. “The NTC has not finalised a position,” Miles stated, without addressing the industry criticism directly. At this point, the issue became quite political.

Still on a fairly fresh return to the federal transport portfolio, Barnaby Joyce’s office made plain to ATN his attention was on the issue, just as opposition Labor transport spokesman Glenn Sterle took the opportunity to lambast the government’s handling of the process. “The deputy prime minister takes the concerns raised by the National Road Transport Association and other heavy vehicle industry stakeholders very seriously,” a ministerial spokesperson said. The Joyce’s position was: • It is imperative industry is consulted along the way to ensure an updated law best meets the needs of the industry and the aims agreed by transport and infrastructure ministers. • The Safety and Productivity Program needs to be informed by real-world experience. • The federal government would raise NatRoad’s and industry’s concerns directly with the NTC. None of this would have impressed Sterle, who backed the industry position, described the reform as an “epic failure” and the round-table workshop as “half-baked”. “Rather than attempting to cut the wages of hard-working truck drivers and completely crushing any hope of sustainability for our transport companies, the MorrisonJoyce government and the NTC need to bin this review and respond seriously to the recommendations of the recent Senate report into the importance of a viable, safe, sustainable and efficient road transport industry,” Sterle said. Most striking, however, was how little Joyce’s contribution mattered to an industry that was so far past valuing the NTC being given ‘a good taking to’. “We are not convinced that the deputy PM raising these issues directly with the NTC will address deep-seated deficiencies, like the lack of real-world experience, that are hampering the process,” Clark said, while Smith reiterated that the present approach was a failure.

“These rules will reduce flexibility and motivate tired drivers to keep working instead of resting as and when they need to.”

Reverse gear For its part, the NTC praised the round-table workshop. “It was incredibly useful for us as we worked through the issue of fatigue, one of the six key areas that make up the HVNL Safety and Productivity Program,” de Rozario told ATN. “We saw strong representation from industry on heavy vehicle work and rest hours, in particular maximum weekly working hours, and this feedback has been heard. “The importance of seeing the whole reform picture was well made. We thank all attendees for their time and contributions. “The HVNL will benefit from industry’s involvement and being part of the conversation all the way through. “The NTC continues to work with closely with industry and jurisdictions to create a better HVNL.” But Shearer cast the industry’s view of the workshop in one word – “rejection”: that word again. And then the hours issue was no more. “Since Monday’s workshop, the NTC has considered the useful insights as well as seeking views from all participating jurisdictions,” Miles said. “As a result, the NTC’s advice to the Infrastructure and Transport Ministers Meeting (ITMM) will be that the outer weekly limit for driving hours should remain at 72 hours.”

Assistant Minister for Road Safety and Freight Transport Scott Buchholz, often seen as the safest of federal hands on trucking matters, swung supportively behind the NTC, thanking it and saying: “This is a common-sense outcome, a win for our industry and for truck drivers across Australia.” He indicated the pressure felt over the hours push but he also failed to address the industry calls for a new start on the reforms. Panel beating As this publication went to press, the industry solution to the imbroglio remains the same: start afresh without the NTC. It was summed up by Smith, who said: “The review should be completed by an expert panel supported by a small staff. “The panel should be charged with developing an approach to the national truck law based on best practice from around the world and industry’s on-the-road insights. “The NTC’s work so far – and the many submissions it received – should be handled over to the panel as an input to its work. “Given this head start, the expert panel should be able deliver a law that could come into force in 2023, a year ahead of any timeframe that the NTC process is likely to achieve.” The ball is now in the court of governments and their ministers.

Let’s start again on HVNL reform Consultation process fails to offer path to improvement in the law After three years of consultation, submissions and commentary, it’s time to stick a fork in the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) reform process because it’s done. Sadly, the HVNL review is now directionless. The policy choices the National Transport Commission (NTC) proposes and the pathway for industry to weigh those policies as practical and appropriate reforms is unclear and torturous. Whilst transport ministers appear to have given the NTC some riding instructions, there is no clear road map to show how the process will lead to better laws. The review process that started in May 2018 is off the rails. It is not progressing the reform agenda in any meaningful way. I’ll explain using fatigue management as an example. The NTC asked NatRoad members and other stakeholders to comment on a proposal to cut standard hours permitted to be used for work in the interests of improving safety. The option presented would have reduced a driver’s working hours by at least 17%. The benefits in safety that supposedly result were based on outdated evidence. No wonder we were given less than a week to comment on the idea. To show you how silly the consultation round was, members

Warren Clark, CEO of the National Road Transport Association

were asked to complete a questionnaire. It was not fit for purpose. There was no guidance on how to fill it out and it was clear that its designer had little idea about the dayto-day issues facing people who drive for a living.. There was no consideration of recording costs of electronic work

There must be a system of managing fatigue that promotes responsible and sensible behaviour diary systems that don’t require a hard copy back-up. Lumping this under “other costs” is woefully inadequate. The survey did not recognise other individual driver costs – like training, buying a hard copy work diary or penalties. As members know only too well, even with minor offences, the cost of penalties weighs heavily as a financial burden and is a genuine

disincentive to keep driving. And when it came to calculating a driver’s wage – was it a mean average across all types? Was superannuation included? Was imputed value included for owner-drivers? The survey was a process of garbage in, garbage out. It’s as if the penalties for minor administrative infringements (like not drawing a straight line in your diary) don’t exist. They do – and they need to be reviewed and scrapped soon, not some time in 2023. Nobody is more serious about safety than professional truck drivers. There must be a system of managing fatigue that promotes responsible and sensible behaviour. You can’t look at elements of the fatigue management system on their own. That doesn’t make sense when all of the parts make up the whole. The prescriptive standard hours requirements underpin other parts of fatigue management. It seems that not enough deep thinking or research has been done when the latest proposal represents more prescription, reduced hours for productive work and an untested system. It’s time to go back to the start. Let’s have immediate reform of access and fatigue arrangements ahead of the planned 2023 legislation. Make that a priority.

Tasmania backs heavy vehicle driver training program TTA effort to get newly licensed drivers up to the mark praised The Tasmanian government will provide $80,000 to the Tasmanian Transport Association (TTA) to support a pilot program to bring new job-ready heavy vehicle drivers into the transport industry. State infrastructure and transport minister Michael Ferguson said that the industry employs 12,500 Tasmanians but has an ageing workforce – the oldest across all industries in Tasmania – and faces strong competition in attracting young people. Many Tasmanians have a heavy vehicle licence but more training is needed to prepare a person to be a safe, productive and responsible driver, Ferguson observed. The TTA has developed a plan to bridge this gap. The Heavy Vehicle Drivers Licence Plus program aims “to take people beyond the heavy vehicle driver licence and make them job ready”. “The TTA has done a great deal of work in developing the program and the grant will allow the organisation to pilot it, with trials of up to 30 participants from across the state,” Ferguson said. “The applicants will go through a

Michael Ferguson

selection process run by the TTA, partnering with job network providers. “The program will include key industry competencies in fatigue management, load restraint, customer service skills, and an introduction to the heavy vehicle national law and chain of responsibility. “Importantly, as an industry-led program, this will create connections

between the participants and potential employers. “The government understands the crucial role the transport sector plays in supporting the growing Tasmanian economy and supporting our way of life, and the training program will help ensure it has the people it needs to continue to grow.” Ferguson noted that providing infrastructure to support drivers is also a key part to the effective risk management programs for the heavy vehicle industry. Tenders have recently been advertised for the construction of heavy vehicle rest area on the Bass Highway at Howth, which will provide facilities to create a safe and convenient working environment. This project is one of several identified under the Tasmanian Heavy Vehicle Driver Rest Area Strategy released in late last year. Some $5 million – $4 million from the federal government and $1 million from the state government – has been allocated to start the design and construction of these facilities. Three other facilities under the strategy will be completed next year: • East Tamar Highway near the Bridport Road junction • Midland Highway at Pontville • Glenstone Road at the Brighton Hub.

SA takes deep dive into freight routes Highway links and bypass works to be examined A series of planning studies will be undertaken to investigate improvements to several major South Australian transport corridors, the state and federal governments have announced. The South Australian government is calling for tenders to develop strategic planning studies and business cases for the Greater Adelaide Freight Bypass, Murray Bridge to South East Links, Eyre Peninsula and Far North Area plans, and Eyre Highway upgrades from Port Augusta to the Western Australia border. Around Adelaide, the focus will include the Adelaide Hills, with a view to make routes safer, better connected and to remove more freight from the South Eastern Freeway and Cross Road. Federal transport minister Barnaby Joyce predicted the Greater Adelaide

Freight Bypass would transform the Mount Barker region by decongesting the freeway, and allowing easier and faster travel for residents and visitors. “This project is 50:50 funded by the Australian and South Australian governments, with $17 million allocated to the planning work that will be used to inform priorities and investments needed on freight networks to support economic growth and the needs of regional areas,” Joyce said. State infrastructure and transport minister Corey Wingard emphasised that the studies were necessary to meet the freight needs associated with a growing population and expanding regional centres. “The Greater Adelaide Freight Bypass will enable some trucks to be diverted

from the South Eastern Freeway onto the regional north-south freight route and the Sturt Highway,” Wingard said. “The Murray Bridge to South East Links includes key planning into the costs and benefits for the duplication of the Princes Highway and Swanport Bridge between Murray Bridge and the Mallee Highway. “The Eyre Highway upgrade planning study will be used to develop a business case into the costs and benefits of providing access for triple road trains from the Western Australia border through to Port Augusta. “This, plus duplication of the Joy Baluch Bridge, widening of intersections in Ceduna and Thevenard and widening and realignment of the intersection of the Eyre and Lincoln Highways will form part of a connected high productivity heavy freight network and provide priority for vehicles travelling on the Eyre Highway.”

To the Nth degree New Advanced Driver Assistance System adds extra safety dimension to Isuzu’s updated 4x2 N Series light-duty range, Greg Bush writes Isuzu Trucks has announced what it states as the safest Isuzu truck ever developed for the Australian market with major updates to its new N Series light-duty range. The latest incarnation of its 4x2 N Series trucks will offer operators not only the brand’s famous promise of reliability, but the next generation of truck safety with the introduction of Isuzu Intelligent Safety. There are a number of cosmetic enhancements to the range, notably the improved cabin appointments.

These updates include an interior revamp in seat-cover material and cabin appointments. Behind the dashboard also comes a new CAN converter circuit and connector, making it a simple exercise to fit a fleet management or telematics system. Outside, a new exterior lamp assembly with prominent foglamps gives the new range a distinctly different forward appearance. As per other Isuzu line-ups, the new N Series boasts a wide range to cater for customers’ needs in various vocations.

In addition, all new N Series trucks receive at least 500kg increases in towing capacity—up to 4,500kg rating for models with 4HK1 engines (NPR, NQR and NPS models), and 4,000kg rating for all other models in the range. Isuzu says Isuzu dealerships will match the towing increase, offering genuine towbars and a selection of 50mm or 70mm tow-balls rated to the truck’s capacity as an optional accessory, available at extra cost. The main talking point, however, is the introduction of Isuzu’s new Advanced Driver

Assistance System, or ADAS, which complements the existing safety suite found in all N Series 4x2 trucks. Isuzu Australia Limited (IAL) national sales manager Les Spaltman noted that new N Series trucks were built to support operators across a gamut of applications, but that urban operators would find particular benefit in Isuzu’s ADAS. “Isuzu’s data shows that most businesses needing a light-duty truck operate in urban settings, including freight movement in cities and residential areas, business-tocustomer service or delivery, and operators needing their trucks on site within metro areas,” Spaltman said. ADAS is said to have been cleverly and carefully designed to observe changing traffic conditions and assist drivers in maintaining a safe distance from other road users, pedestrians, cyclists and objects. This all works to help avoid collisions with a combination of warning alerts and automations that

activate when an imminent crash or potentially dangerous change in driving environment is detected. The ADAS features include an advanced emergency braking system (AEB) with: forward collision warning (FCW); lane departure warning system (LDW); traffic movement warning (TMW); distance warning system (DWS); and auto lighting system (ALS). The eyes behind ADAS is a Hitachi stereo 3D camera, which Isuzu says has proven to be incredibly accurate in object detection, as well as speed and depth perception – whether it’s in daylight or night operation. Isuzu points out that the duallens Hitachi camera is mounted inside the truck’s cab in a central dashboard position. It is not attached to the windscreen and thereby does not obstruct the driver’s view. The aim is to give the camera a superior field of vision to detect lower-height objects while in

motion (such as children), aimed at operators working in built-up areas. While emergency breaking and LDW systems have been regular safety items in modern trucks, Isuzu claims its AEBS with FCW works by way of the dual optical sensor camera, which monitors the environment in front of the truck. It is said to detect and determine the distance of 3D objects such as vehicles, pedestrians, bicycles and other objects that appear in front of the truck. If the FCW system determines a collision is likely, and depending on

the circumstances and severity of the situation, the system will respond with either audible and visual alerts, or autonomous activation of the vehicle’s brakes. Isuzu says that, under normal operating conditions, the system is designed to avoid a collision with a speed difference up to 50km/h and can reduce the risk of a collision impact for higher speed differentials, even at night. Similar to systems found in many new passenger cars, Isuzu’s

LDW works via sensors that detect and monitor the vehicle’s trajectory in relation to lane markings on roads or the road edge itself, providing audible and visual alarms for the driver if the vehicle begins to wander out of the lane marking or over the road edge. With the aim of improving safety even further, Isuzu’s DWS is designed to ensure the truck operator is travelling at a safe distance from the vehicle ahead. Isuzu states that this allows drivers to pre-set a desired minimum distance (depending on application or environment).

The DWS will then alert drivers with a subtle visual warning on the dash when an unsafe distance is detected. According to Isuzu, the system has been intuitively programmed to only activate when speeds exceed 30km/h, making it particularly useful for highway driving while preventing spurious warnings in situations such as traffic jams. “It’s also in these dense, high-traffic situations that the most unfortunate collisions occur, with our data also showing pedestrian and cyclist

Isuzu’s ADAS acts as a second pair of eyes on the road

accidents with trucks accounting for the largest percentage of serious injury and death,” Spaltman continued. “Linked to the dual-camera placed for optimal visibility of low-height objects, our ADAS is designed to be an extra set of eyes on the road, helping the driver monitor everything from other road users, pedestrians and cyclists, through to changing traffic conditions.” Isuzu believes operators who do face those unavoidable traffic conditions, or who are operating in metro settings, will also appreciate

the TMW system, another feature unique to Isuzu’s N Series ADAS. The TMW system monitors stationary vehicles ahead and will alert the driver with a clear but subtle warning sound when forward traffic movement is detected more than five metres from a truck’s stopped position. Rounding-out the Isuzu Intelligent Safety suite in the new N Series 4x2 range is ALS. The ALS functions automatically when selected by the driver, adjusting headlight and taillight

H I brightness to meet changing outside lighting conditions, providing drivers with optimum lighting for safe driving and road use. Dependent on models, other additions to the line-up include a customisable speed limiter (set at the dealership), new cab-tilt warning device, and suspension seats in selected narrow-cab models. Isuzu says customers can also expect to see new product hitting its Ready-to-Work range, with tipper and tradepack line-ups expanded, plus additional models slated for 2022 release.

“We are incredibly pleased to offer our customers the next generation of safety in light-duty trucking with our updated N Series range,” Spaltman said. “With confidence, we can say these are the safest, most advanced, dieselpowered light-duty Japanese trucks in the Australian market. “In terms of work-smart features to keep drivers safe and comfortable, and capacity to get the job done, we believe operators will see a huge difference between owning a new Isuzu N Series truck compared with any other similar truck out there.”

Diagnostics: Regulatory Round

Safety is the key to success New strategy and next round of the Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative loom As CEO of the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR), there is one constant that guides all decisions – and that’s the topic of safety. Safety will always play a pivotal role in the success of the road transport task – and the priority of the NHVR is to work collaboratively to ensure that everyone remains safe and feels secure in their workplace – be that an office, a warehouse, on the road, or anywhere else. There are many ways the NHVR, governments and industry work together to bring about the best safety practices and measures. In particular, the federal government introduced the Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative (HVSI) in 2017, which is administered by the NHVR to deliver tangible road safety outcomes, improve road networks, and promote greater levels of heavy vehicle assurance. The HVSI has been instrumental in supporting efforts to deliver all types of programs and projects across Australia, aimed at maintaining and improving business and community safety. To date, more than $28 million of federal funding has been provided across 117 grants. It is one of the great privileges of my role to witness the many varied projects that receive funding and ultimately, deliver increased levels of safety and security. From training new heavy vehicle drivers about key road safety issues

Sal Petroccitto, CEO of the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator

and enhancing driver competency and road safety, to field testing and evaluating the performance of safety chains at the point of coupling failure and trailer separation – the HVSI is an initiative driven by industry, for industry. The initiative also provides a broad opportunity for the NHVR to engage and work closely with a range of new and established industry groups to deliver targeted small- and medium-sized projects that are of equal importance when it comes to safety. After all, the more projects funded, the more safety increases across industry. The next opportunity to apply for HVSI funding opens in midNovember, with details available on the NHVR website. I encourage readers to view some of the previous projects that have been funded and put your project forward if it aligns with the criteria and theme of ‘safer drivers, vehicles and road use’. On the topic of safety, the NHVR will also publish its Heavy Vehicle

Safety Strategy 2021–25 in November, together with the first of a yearly Heavy Vehicle Safety Strategy Action Plan. Both are aimed at aiding efforts to reduce the number of road traumas and fatalities that occur on our roads each year. While heavy vehicle fatalities have decreased on average over the past decade, sadly, the number of road traumas and fatalities remains an all too painful issue for many families, friends and work colleagues. The strategy has three main objectives in the pursuit of safer roads and communities: • create positive change in individual behaviours and foster a culture to im prove safety • drive uptake of a modern, safety heavy vehicle fleet that reduces the likelihood and impact of crashes • influence road network design to support safe heavy vehicle use. As part of the strategy, the NHVR will continue to move beyond a reliance on traditional compliance and enforcement approaches and embrace new types of regulatory activities, delivering long-term safety outcomes. Further, we will be expanding our engagement alongside key regulatory partners and delivering increased promotional and educational campaigns in an effort to proactively influence behavioural change for all road users. Ultimately, safety is about communication and consistency. Initiatives, such as the HVSI, combined with a collaborative safety strategy, stand us in good stead – as, together, we build a safer, more productive and efficient industry of the future.

E-Transit to lead Ford electrification charge Range of BEV and PHEV options on their way after next year’s van launch Ford Australia’s is laying the foundations for its E-Transit van launch, revealing a strategy aimed at providing at least five new electrified vehicles by the end of 2024. The new Ford E-Transit is planned to debut in mid-2022. The US behemoth’s “electrification roadmap” will include many of the company’s already common nameplates while introducing new models that will diversify and broaden its local vehicle range. These will be made up of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) largely, while plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) will also play a role, “offering a vehicle to meet the lifestyle requirements of every Australian customer”. “We are accelerating our electrified future in Australia,” Ford Australia and New Zealand president and CEO Andrew Birkic said. “We are anticipating the needs of each type of customer and bringing

the best of our global line-up to meet those requirements. “For business customers, E-Transit delivers the durability and capability they need to serve their customers, along with zero-emissions efficiency.” Based on European Union technical requirements and its own calculations, Ford claims a driving range for the van of up to 317km, “more than 2.5 times the average distance a commercial van travels each day”, depending on conditions. As with specs and pricing, ADR 81/02 certified range will be announced closer to its Australian launch. Running Ford Australia is collaborating with EV charging infrastructure firm Jet Charge for its dealer network’s needs. This is as part of a launch framework that includes: extensive in-house training programs; a select

network of dealers with specialist EV workshop equipment; end-user maintenance routines in readiness for the first vehicles to arrive. Ford will also install charging stations at its Victorian facilities in Campbellfield, the YouYangs Proving Ground, and at the company’s new logistics hub at Merrifield. The full-size E-Transit will begin to arrive in rear-wheel drive 420L long wheel-base configuration from mid2022, after the Escape PHEV makes its debut as Ford’s first locally available plug-in hybrid variant. “For 56 years, Transit has been the first choice for getting the job done, and we’re again moving the game on with this fully electric version,” Transit retail and product marketing manager Anna Hercan said. “Our business customers tell us how

decreases as battery reaches full capacity and that results may vary based on peak charging times and battery state of charge.

important it is for them to have their van ready whenever it’s needed. “E-Transit has more than enough range for a full day’s work, can fully charge overnight so it’s ready for the next morning and there’s no sacrifice in its load carrying capacity or convenience.” Propulsion With a usable battery capacity of 68kWh, the rear-wheel drive layout vehicle’s electric motor has a peak output of 198kW and 430Nm of torque, making it the most powerful Transit currently available in Australia. E-Transit’s drive modes are tailored to its electric powertrain. A special Eco Mode can provide between 8–10 per cent improvement in energy usage if E-Transit is driven unladen, or at highway speeds.

Eco Mode limits top speed, regulates acceleration and optimises climate control to help maximise the available driving range. The vehicle also supports scheduled pre-conditioning, enabling the climate control system to be programmed to adjust the cabin to the preferred temperature while the vehicle is still on charge, ensuring that the maximum driving range is available. E-Transit features both AC charging and DC fast-charging. Its 11.3kW on-board charger is said to be capable of delivering a 100 per cent charge in up to 8.2 hours. Charging with up to 115kW using a high-power DC fast-charger, E-Transit can top-up the battery from 15 per cent to 80 per cent in around 34 minutes. Ford notes that charging rate

Structure “Ford engineers designed E-Transit’s driveline and rear suspension system to optimise cargo space, locating the battery underneath the body and creating a heavyduty semi-trailing arm suspension system that enables better steering precision and more confident handling, plus better traction in both laden and unladen conditions,” the manufacturer stated. This also allows for cargo capacity of up to 11.3 cubic metres in mid-roof specification and 12.4 cubic metres for the high-roof version, both of which are identical to the Transit 350L RWD diesel equivalents. Gross vehicle mass of up to 4.2 tonnes is offered, with a targeted payload of 1,616kg. Ford will offer its five-year, unlimited kilometre service offering that sits alongside the eight-year, 160,000 km warranty package for the battery and high-voltage electric components.

Product Eroad’s report indicates that a significant portion of the industry will move towards alternative powered trucks

Eroad report shows industry thirst for reduced emissions Significant numbers of firms report considering alternative propulsion Transportation technology services company Eroad has released its inaugural sustainability sentiment survey, Road to Sustainability, designed to identify how prepared businesses are for shifts in compliance towards sustainability. Eroad said it had gathered data and insights from 1,134 key business decision makers across Australia and New Zealand to facilitate the report. Report key findings include: • Over 37% of light fleets and 21% of all heavy fleets expected to be fully electric or alternatively powered by 2025 across Australia and New Zealand • 11% of public companies indicated they will invest in transitioning fleets to alternate power sources, which is almost double that of private companies at 6% • Across Australia and New Zealand, regulatory standards and reporting requirements and government funding and grants are in the top three motivators to increase environmental sustainability efforts with 30% of businesses motivated by these actions • In Australia 60% of all large and very large asset fleet owners (1,000+ assets) stated they would pay more for carbon neutral assets, compared to just 21 per cent of all large and very large fleet owners in New Zealand • Only 6.3% of businesses see a

positive impact on return on investment in sustainability across Australia and New Zealand. While there is still a long way to go within the industry, with 42% of all businesses not currently reporting on any sustainability goals there are shifts towards a more sustainable future. The biggest shift highlighted was in the form of electric vehicles, with over 37% of light fleets and 21% of all heavy fleets expected to be fully electric or alternatively powered by 2025 across Australia and New Zealand. “The Road to Sustainability report has given Eroad the opportunity to see where we can help our clients adapt to new government regulations and also help drive further change within the industry.” Tony Warwood, executive GM of Eroad, said. “The report highlights a growing need to acknowledge and work towards sustainable measurables within the broader transport industry. “The report also reveals the obstacles that are in the way, such as regulations and financial backing. This report needs to be used as a launch-pad to bring sustainability towards the front end of the conversation when discussing transport carbon footprint emissions and everything associated with it. “Our goal at Eroad is to create safer, more sustainable roads and we are committed to sustainable business practices.

“We recognise the role our business plays in providing positive outcomes for the communities we operate in and the environment we share.” The Australian and New Zealand markets have similarities and across both countries regulatory standards and reporting requirements and government funding and grants are the top three motivators to increase environmental sustainability efforts with 30% of all businesses being motivated by regulatory changes, government funding or punitive action, the company noted. But despite New Zealand’s more robust climate change regulations, Australia is leading the way in a few key areas, including the greening of assets. 32% of all assets and mobile plant and equipment in Australia are currently alternatively powered compared to only 19% of all fleets that could be considered ‘green’ assets in New Zealand. As well as in Australia, 60% of all large and very large asset fleet owners (1,000+ assets) stated they would pay more for carbon neutral assets, compared to just 21% of all large and very large fleet owners in New Zealand. Another division in sustainability efforts is between public and private companies in both Australia and New Zealand. The percentage of public companies (11%) indicated they will invest in transitioning fleets to alternate power sources, which is almost double that of private companies (6%). As with most businesses, the bottom line of return on investment is key in making decisions for the future and while there are many factors holding back the industry, one major factor is the lack of return on investment in sustainability initiatives. Across Australia and New Zealand only 6.3% of businesses see a positive impact on return on investment in sustainability.

MAN makes autonomous progress in port

A drone is part of the SenSen solution

MAN Truck & Bus and Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA) have reported successfully completing the automated container transport project, Hamburg TruckPilot The partners observe that autonomous driving has the potential to make freight transport safer, more efficient and more sustainable. “Pilot projects like Hamburg TruckPilot prove that the use of self-driving trucks is technologically feasible and can be efficiently integrated into logistics processes,” MAN board member for research and development Dr Frederik Zohm said. “Autonomous driving will be a game changer in transportation. “In close cooperation with customers and partners, we are testing practical automation solutions with the aim of getting self-driving trucks ready for series production from 2030.” The results were presented by both firms at the ITS World Congress 2021, the digital transport event held earlier this month. HHLA CEO Angela Titzrath emphasised that the cooperation with MAN is an important and necessary step in shaping the future of freight transport. “Our facilities operate 24/7 around the clock, 360 days a year,” Titzrath said. “However, the safe integration of autonomous trucks into the terminal processes is a major challenge, because autonomous and classic transports are intermingled. “With Hamburg TruckPilot, we were able to show that this application is possible and promising in practice.”. “However, the safe integration of autonomous trucks into the terminal processes is a major challenge, because autonomous and classic transports are intermingled. “With Hamburg TruckPilot, we were able to show that this application is possible and promising in practice.” MAN project manager Sebastian Völl noted the results of the testing marked an important autonomous-driving milestone for the make. “When our prototype manoeuvred independently into a block storage lane for the first time, we saw that it worked and that we can meet the high accuracy requirements,” Völl said. “And even driving across the terminal site with many other manually controlled trucks, sensor technology, environment detection and automation systems have mastered the interaction perfectly. “When the first container with a real load lifted off the chassis during the practical drives, I was super proud of the entire team! We can build on this experience for future projects.”

SenSen lands NHVR advanced monitoring services deal AI-controlled drones and solar powered trailers for compliance task Listed artificial intelligence (AI) tech firm SenSen has gained a National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) compliance systems contract involving vehiclemounted cameras, a drone and solar-powered trailers. SenSen’s solution is to be deployed in the NHVR’s southern operations region, in line with its aim to “undertake intelligence-led, riskbased compliance activities, and increase their visibility of heavy vehicle fleet movements across the country”. “Our ability to deliver highly relevant and accurate information on heavy vehicle movements through a combination of drone, trailer and vehicle-mounted solutions in an integrated fashion is an exciting new frontier,” SenSen CEO Dr Subhash Challa said. “I am delighted SenSen’s AI capabilities delivered through our platform, SenDISA, have been recognised as critical for this success. “SenSen is pleased to be selected to lead this highly strategic project and establish new partnerships with one of Australia’s leading drone system companies, AVCRM, alongside Microsoft Azure to deliver such advanced AI powered intelligence capabilities to NVHR. “As part of this project, SenSen will feed all the intelligence gathered from the delivered system into the regulator’s Microsoft

Azure’s intelligence systems.” Starting this month, the initial contract is for one year with an option exercisable by NHVR to extend the contract for an additional two years. The company hailed the deal as allowing it exposure to all three levels of government – local, state and federal. NHVR CEO Sal Petroccitto said the contract was the next step into delivering new and innovative ways to make Australian roads safer for everyone “It’s timely and important that we use innovative thinking to make our roads safer,” Petroccitto said. “We’ve now taken the next step to trial mobile camera technology, across the NHVR’s southern operations region. “These cameras will assist the NHVR’s officers in a risk-based approach to safety – ensuring our officers are targeting the biggest road safety risks. “On the flip side, smarter camera technology will also help in identifying operators who are doing the right thing, who can then expect to be less regularly intercepted by the NHVR. “Having the best, most up-to-date information, including information gathered through cameras, helps us to make better decisions about law reform, safety and productivity programs that will make our roads safer for everyone.”

Diagnostics: Risk Manager

Exploring the pain points Adopting new strategies helps enable consignors to roll with the punches Delays and slow-downs in shipping deliveries are putting transport and logistics operators under pressure in getting their goods to customers and raising new risks to be managed. It’s a case of rolling with the punches by responding to these pain points with appropriate strategies for risk management. The difficulties for Australian businesses are mainly due to the ongoing effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, such as: • increased consumer demand • the availability of containers • limited shipping space • increased costs as a result of demand • unreliable shipping information. These difficulties have multiple roll-on effects on transporters’ risk exposure. The increase in demand can lead to errors in deliveries or mistakes that cause damage to goods. This can have an effect on your goods in transit insurance. Having to store more of your customers’ goods for longer may also have an effect on your property policy. Effects of logistical issues With the Northern Hemisphere maintaining a monopoly over

the supply of empty shipping containers, Australian transport and logistics operators are finding their choices limited to return containers and are also having to use their own properties to store containers that would normally go straight to the customer or the ship. It’s important to check any contracts with your customers and to clarify who is responsible for demurrage if containers are held up or multiple arrive on the one ship without additional free storage days from the shipping companies. Limited shipping space on board vessels and delays and hold-ups also mean that loaded containers may not ship in the intended consignment, and this has insurance implications if consignment cover applies to multiple containers instead of a single one. Early communication with

Clarify with your customers who is responsible for demurrage if containers are held up

customers ensures they know the possible costs for these delays and can decide how to handle their deliveries. Just assuming they will pay the demurrage is not a good strategy. Spread your risks A strategy of spreading your risks is always the best option. Where possible, spread your customer base not only by revenue, but also by industry type. There are certain industries experiencing great change in the current environment and some may not survive. Importantly, document everything. Keep detailed records of the arrangements you have made for every consignment, in case you have to make an insurance claim. At the same time, transport and logistics operators should review their insurance policies to ensure sure they’re appropriate for new exposures. Working with your broker can help determine what cover is needed and whether your terms are adequate for the current risks.

Like good wine, South Australian owner-operator Justin Wenham’s 2007 Western Star appeared to be getting better with age, although it’s now been overshadowed by the arrival of a stunning, brand new spruced-up 4900 model, with young driver Mel Ware the beneficiary

ften, with my long-winded stories, I tend to focus on a single protagonist and, nine times out of 10, it’s the owner of the featured truck, or the driver, or the owner-driver. For this story, though, it really feels like I’m writing one of those big budget Marvel ensemble movies as there are so many main characters.

It was difficult to slow Justin down long enough for photos, but I did manage to catch him with his daughter, Heidi, as they celebrated strongman Troy Conley-Magnusson’s feat of pulling both Mahnew Western Stars at this year’s SA Truck Show in Mannum

The lead character is Justin Wenham, owner of Mahnew Transport, which is based in Lenswood, South Australia, although I’m sure he thinks he’d look good in tights and a cape. However, this isn’t a superhero movie; it is unequivocally a family story with a bucketload of ‘Star’ power (sorry, couldn’t resist that pun). In fact, Wenham really shares top billing with the other cast members, notably his number one driver and unofficial little sister, Mel Ware, his extremely tolerant wife, Bronwyn, and their capable and friendly kids, Heidi, Sam and Nick. Mahnew Transport is a family company, built by the family, run by the family, operated by family members and supported by family members. Not all of those involved were born into the family, as you will learn, but once you are accepted in, you are family. I was lucky enough to be invited into the Wenham family home in Lenswood recently to enjoy some lunch and a chat. I spent a couple of hours learning how a Victorian

farm boy with a fondness for tinkering with machinery ended up becoming a qualified plumber before running an orchard and, eventually, a successful two-truck owneroperator business. I learnt a lot in those two hours; a lot of stuff I can’t repeat either. I did get to know the family very well and realised what a close, friendly bunch they are. I met all the cast I listed at the start and another member that I believe warranted special recognition. This young lady is another old family friend that’s become part of the Wenham furniture and is easily the quietest member of the cast: Polly Mason. Mason doesn’t drive the trucks and she doesn’t organise the trucks. In fact, she is a teacher and qualified accountant. She is also an extended member of the Wenham family and has been there since she was a kid. This quietly spoken young lady can often be found elbows-deep in water or grease, cleaning or helping maintain the Mahnew Western Stars. What’s the reason she gets special mention at the head of the story though? Mason makes the best sausage rolls I’ve had since I shifted from New Zealand to Australia. Sure, this has no bearing on the story but our lunchtime interview was just exponentially enhanced by her cooking. Thank you very much.

Show regulars Onto the subject at hand and the man with a million stories to tell – Wenham. I stumbled across Wenham in my endeavours to organise a story on this year’s fantastic SA Truck and Ute Show in Mannum. Wenham has always been heavily involved in the community event. When I tracked him down to learn more about the show, I found not only was he involved, but his two trucks were regular ‘Stars’ of the show. I’ve always been a fan of the big-bonneted Western Star brand and, when I laid eyes on the Mahnew Transport rigs, I needed to know more. Take a look for yourself; they are immaculate. Although Wenham grew up on a farm in Victoria, he has a strong family history in the transport industry. His grandfather, Ronald Collins, was one of the pioneering Adelaide to Sydney truckies. Diesel was in Wenham’s blood from an early age. It took a while to seep out, though. After school he became a qualified plumber. Once he finished his apprenticeship, he left Victoria

and moved back to his grandfather’s backyard in South Australia. That’s when he met Bron. Bron was working on her family orchard and, as Wenham put it: “She put a collar and leash on me, and I stayed.” I’m sure if Bron knew then what she knows now, she might have used one of those shock collars. At the time, Wenham was making use of his plumber’s skills by working at his cousin’s earthmoving business, doing machinery work with septic tanks and the like. At the same time, Wenham admits he still had his eye on the trucks. “I just love my trucks,” he said. When Bron and Wenham took over running Bron’s family farm, it gave Wenham the opportunity to indulge that diesel desire that we are all guilty of getting. Weekday work on the orchard was broken up with relief driving work for a local transport company. Eventually, it became a standard Friday night ritual for Wenham to be jumping in a truck and running hanging meat into Melbourne. The powerful pull of the open road meant it

I convinced Mel Ware to pose with the new Western Star. She is a great role model for women in trucking The Cat-powered 2007 Star features a highly customised interior, done inhouse by Wenham and Ware

didn’t take long before he was wanting more and more ‘relief’ work. Next thing you know, Wenham is doing two weeks on, two weeks off for another well known South Australian name, Kuchel Contractors. Those that know Kuchel will be aware it is another firm follower of the Western Star badge and Wenham was loving the Star he was sharing. The truck was definitely a lot nicer than the loads, though. “We were carting chicken offal and chicken feathers,” he recalled with a grin. “The law enforcement officers didn’t like us ’cause of the smell. "I used to tell them I was carting out of the morgue,” he said with a laugh. On one occasion, a young officer didn’t accept that and wanted to inspect the load. It led to the older officers having a great laugh and Wenham leaving that weighstation with a little more added to his load, courtesy of the young officer’s lunch. Project truck The relief driving soon turned into a fulltime gig for him. He stopped sharing a Star and had his own Kuchel Star to pilot, love and care for fulltime.

While Wenham had been indulging his diesel bug, his extended family had increased after 17-year-old Ware, an old family friend, had turned up at the orchard looking for work. Wenham took her under his wing and, by the time he was driving fulltime, Ware was basically running the place. Ware was also, some may say, a ‘younger, classier Wenham’. Anything he could do, she would do. When he was home with the company truck, it would be him and Ware out there washing or working on it. Pretty soon, driving someone else’s truck wasn’t enough for Wenham and he decided he wanted to buy his own project to do up and tinker around with. Growing up on the farm, doing the earthmoving, even a bit of auto electrical training, mixed in with the ‘MacGyver-ness’ needed on a family orchard, meant ‘tinkering around’ was a professional hobby for him, and Ware was right there to soak it all in as well. After broaching the idea to the business manager, Bron, Wenham and Ware headed down to Adelaide to find a project truck. This was early in 2016, and the target was

a Kenworth T600 with a Series 60 Detroit. He’d never ever driven one, but that’s what he wanted. However, what he got was a 2007 4900 Western Star with a C15 and 900,000km under its belt. It also had a small issue with the right-hand mirror, stemming from the fact the truck had laid down on it somewhere near Broken Hill. From there it was gathering dust in The Truck Factory’s’ Adelaide yard. After another consultation with the business manager, the choice was made. A deal was arranged where the truck would get a fresh lick of paint and road-worthied at the Truck Factory. It took several weeks and both Wenham and Ware spent a fair bit of time working on the Star themselves – “tinkering around”, as Wenham loves to say, fitting guards and a front bar, cleaning up the interior and generally taking a hands-on approach to the resurrection of the big girl. Afterwards, the truck got painted the stunning Toyota Starlet green, just like Wenham’s ute. Finally, after weeks of work, the big green Western Star was driven back home to Lenswood and made ready for its first official

job, escorting Wenham’s daughter, Heidi, to her Year Seven formal. From there, Wenham had arranged to start subcontracting to a local transport company. His Western Star would be on the road as often as possible. And when it wasn’t, it would be in his shed, where he and Ware would be adding and modifying it even more. When the wine season kicked in, the truck would be flat out carting local grapes. Soon, Ware started her trucking career as well, driving their farm truck, a 1987 112M Scania carting grapes as well for local boutique wineries. The diesel bug had bitten Ware fairly early. For her 21st birthday, her parents paid for her semi licence; all that time with Wenham made her extra keen to get out there driving. That time on the road would come about when Wenham moved his truck from doing local work to contracting to Harrold Services, going from flat top, tautliner work (where he was annoying Bron at home every night) to B-double tipper work. Working for Harrold Services, which runs an impressive fleet of its own trucks carting bulk products from farm to factory

and everywhere else, meant Wenham was racking up the kilometres a lot quicker, now. Ware would take every opportunity to jump in the passenger seat and learn the ropes firsthand. Wenham would even hand the keys over every now and then. Pretty sure that stopped when Ware’s gear changes started getting smoother than Wenham’s, but he’ll deny that. In 2019, the opportunity arose for Mahnew Transport to double in size. A second Western Star was added to the fleet and Ware was sent off to work for another farm, carting product solely to, from and for that farm. She was in heaven with her first truck. Here she was, a petite lady that could hold her own in any pub or workshop, with a 2007 Western Star Constellation that had more pulling power than a D10 dozer; steering road trains into Adelaide at maximum weight. “I loved my Star, it had 620hp [462kW] and I wasn’t afraid to use it; no pussyfooting around,” stated Ware, although her favourite memories are catching Wenham on the hills. “Best feeling ever, going past Justin with my thumb up and a huge cheeky grin,” she said. Her Western Star was worked equally as

Wenham made sure his truck had wrapped tanks

hard as Wenham’s, maybe even harder due to Ware's work ethic. When the work at the farm finished, Wenham was invited to put the second Star to work for Pat and Amanda Harrold at Harrold Services, and he jumped at the chance. He was finding his time with Harrold to be very helpful. “Pat’s a very smart man, he knows what he’s doing and has a great business mind,” he attested. Wenham’s respect for Pat and his knowledge of transport was growing as he learnt more and more. “You’re never too old to learn,” he said. Secret Star With the two Western Stars flat out, and Ware’s rig needing a bit of a rebuild, Wenham took the time to investigate the advantages of trading it in and purchasing a new truck instead. Plenty of thorough investigating, followed by a consultation with Bron, then a meeting with the team at Wakefield trucks in Adelaide and a brand-new 2021 Western Star 4900 with 58-inch (147cm) bunk was ordered. The tricky part of this order was the decision to keep it a secret from Ware. It would be Mahnew Transport’s first ever new truck but, in Wenham’s mind, there was never any doubt it would be going to Ware. Yes, it had a lot to do with the fact she

had earned it – the way she drove and maintained her 14-year-old working Western Star was beyond reproach. It was also due to the fact, as he pointed out: “When I die they need to dig a big hole ’cause my truck’s coming with me.” His Star, just shy of two million kilometres, wasn’t going to get demoted. So, the new one was ordered, and every measure was taken to ensure Ware had no idea. “I remember when it was in getting a wheel alignment and I knew Mel was heading through that area,” he recalled. “I rung them and said, ‘do not move that truck, leave it in the shed’. I watched the tracker and when she was through I rang them back to say, ‘OK, go go go’.” Bron recalls similar close calls as she would often be in town picking up or delivering parts for the new truck and was suddenly aware of how close Ware was to spotting her. As with his Western Star, Wenham was heavily involved in ‘tinkering’ around with the new one. Organising the likes of the wrapped dash, getting eight-inch (20cm) stacks brought down from Sydney, even arranging for the team at Chris Barron Engineering to custom build the front bar as a mirror image of Wenham’s own bar. It was a top notch Mahnew Transport Star.

New DEALS Ware’s no fool, though, and, although she wasn’t aware there was a new one on the way, she was aware something was up. “I kept telling Justin about issues with the truck, especially the fact it needed a tune – it was desperately in need,” she said. “In the end, I was getting pissed off and just figured, ‘well fine, I’ve done my bit, if you’re not going to listen and it blows up … tough’.” Key handover When the day finally arrived for handover, Wenham had arranged for Ware to be back in town and, along with their families, the team from Wakefield Trucks rolled through the stunning South Australian landscape and pulled up in front of Ware to hand her the keys. I’m sure you can all picture it now – it’s that part of the story where the heroine gets her moment of glory; an emotional time where years of toil and trouble are rewarded. A strong young woman thriving in a maledominated industry feeling vindicated for her work ethic with the pleasure of hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of state-of-the-art Western Star quality. It’s a situation where even the hardiest truckie struggles to find the words to portray their gratitude. Gulping back the emotion, she said:

“I’m going to miss my white one.” I’m sure she meant, “OMG, thank you” or maybe she really meant: “So, you’re so sick of me passing you Justin, you bought a new truck to avoid it.” Responses aside, she loved her new Western Star. That very afternoon the inverter, microwave and other features were transferred from the old to the new and, by the next morning, the big Star was off earning its keep. Since the handover, Ware has racked up nearly 70,000 kilometres in it and is loving it. The truck turns heads everywhere it goes. While female drivers are increasing in numbers, in the bulk tipping arena Ware is still a rarity, but it’s a job she encourages more woman to get into. Sure, changing tyres on the side of the road is never easy and backing into some locations can be a chore, but it is a job she loves and doing it in her new Western Star is just icing on the cake for her. This has been an exceptionally longwinded waffle from me but, after my time with the Wenham family, I had to do them justice – from the hard work behind the scenes to the time put on the road and into the trucks. I’m sure I will be back for a sequel to this family story. As Heidi made it perfectly clear, she wants to follow in the footsteps of Ware. Bring it on!

Grey Ghosts REMEMBERED

The grey ghosts live on through a not-for-profit T-shirt

Despite the effects of Covid-19 lockdowns over the past year, retired driver Bob Hall is showing determination to keep the memories, and the camaraderie, alive that existed at former logistics company Kwikasair during the 1960s and early ’70s. Especially the years when the eight-wheeler Kenworth ‘Grey Ghosts’ were introduced into the fleet. Hall says Covid has curtailed any plans of a reunion. However, the idle times that come with lockdowns brought an alternate opportunity for Hall and his former workmates. “We had a pretty big reunion a while ago at Bankstown Sports Club; we had 120 blokes turn up,” he explained. “But unfortunately, the way things are at the moment, it looks like we can’t get together. “So, what we’ve done, we’ve put out a polo shirt with the Kwikasair emblem on it and K125 Grey Ghost and the Kenworth logo. “The polo shirt deal came probably out of boredom. It gave us something to in lockdown.” Hall recalls driving five-speed Thames Traders for Kwikasair before the arrival of the grey Kenworths, which were a step forward, although he says they were pretty basic trucks compared to today’s standards. He was behind the first completely knocked down eight-wheeler as it made its maiden trip from Melbourne to Sydney. “When I look back at them now, the times that we were doing on the old road up through the Putty, even the guys now with 650hp (485kW) and four lane roads, they’re still not doing it.” Hall spent around 10 years at Kwikasair before “coming to his senses” and began driving concrete trucks before retiring in the late 1990s. “I was into them for about 30 years, which was a little bit of a different ball game to what I was used to.” He explained that the K125 Grey Ghost shirt colour is platinum to present the truck colour, with the K125 and Grey Ghost in royal blue to match the colour of the fleet numbers. Hall asserted that this is not a money-making enterprise as he’s selling the shirts at cost price. “We have made these shirts to try and keep the memory of Kwikasair and the old trucks alive,” he added. “Any driver on the highway that wants one can have one, but it’s just something mainly for the older drivers ’cause there’s still a few of us around.” Hall advised that anyone who wants to order a cost-price shirt should email vjhall@ macarthurgardens.com.au with Grey Ghosts in the subject line.

Kenworth KICKS ON... AND ON!

Covid or no Covid, the Australian road freight industry continues to run hot and leading the rush for trucks is heavy-duty supremo Paccar Australia, boldly led by its Kenworth flagship. But don’t go thinking Paccar’s powerbrokers are resting on laurels or aren’t looking far into the future.

espite all the hassles and hardships, Paccar Australia’s performance in 2021 is shaping up to be nothing short of outstanding. A sublimely remarkable achievement in a time of immensely uncommon challenges.

Like bees to honey. The retro Legend SAR accrued more than 750 orders when it went on sale for just one day after appearing at the Brisbane Truck Show

The numbers speak for themselves, and none speak louder than Kenworth’s. For the year up to the end of September, the market’s premier brand had delivered 1,972 units, equating to 21.7% of the heavy-duty sector. Its nearest rival was Volvo, more than 800 trucks behind on 12.9%. In effect, Kenworth at the end of the third quarter of 2021 was probably just weeks away from easily surpassing its 2020 fullyear performance, which saw 2,114 new Kenworths roll out of the Bayswater (Vic) production plant. Indeed, Kenworth is, this year, comfortably on track to deliver around 2,500 trucks. Meanwhile, corporate counterpart DAF has been also on an upward trajectory. After notching respectable numbers in 2020, DAF, at the end of September this year, was just a gnat’s knuckle away from cracking the

500-units mark for the first time in the brand’s Australian history. Still, 2020’s numbers certainly weren’t modest or meagre, retaining Kenworth’s and Paccar Australia’s heavy-duty market leadership despite gruelling difficulties as Covid-19 first raised its ugly head and took hold; at one point forcing the company’s US parent to decree a month-long shutdown of all Paccar plants. The shutdown was, however, a wise move, designed to give local Paccar executives time to devise entirely new safety protocols for work routines at every level of the company structure. It wasn’t an easy time, though. Not by a long shot. In an exclusive interview at the end of last year, Paccar Australia managing director Andrew Hadjikakou defined 2020 as: “… a challenge for everyone, like nothing any of us have experienced before and, hopefully, like nothing any of us will have to experience again.” Even so, the company’s operational structure continued to function with typical efficiency, prompting Hadjikakou to report: “We’ve added a lot of new staff and there

are more to come. We’ve certainly not retrenched anyone.” The employment trend has continued this year, with Paccar Australia recently advertising for even more staff in both head office and on the production line. Keeping the production line moving has, of course, been the critical factor and it was on this point that Hadjikakou, last year, paid tribute to the established benefit of a largely homegrown supply chain. “Our supply chain was intact and that’s one point where I feel particularly proud of being Australian-made, with so much of our supply base not coming from overseas but being sourced locally. In many parts, our suppliers are within a 10km radius of the factory.” “That is a big benefit to us. Huge!” he exclaimed. “We didn’t have to rely on the long lead times of overseas supply chains [and] I knew we would be shielded from much of that because so much of our business really is Australian-made.” His assertions may have sounded like corporate cliché but there’s no denying

that, throughout Covid’s impacts, the company’s inherent ability to produce plenty of locally-built trucks while most other brands have struggled to maintain a consistent flow through international supply lines continues to be an absolute boon to Paccar Australia’s business. As Hadjikakou was quick to point out, though, government support also came at the right time. “What the [federal] government has done to stimulate the economy with the instant asset write-off and depreciation schedules have definitely benefited capital purchases such as trucks, giving truck owners immense economic benefits,” he said during the interview last year. “It really is once-in-a-lifetime stuff and the fact that it will be available until June 2023 bodes well for all of us in the industry.” By the end of 2020, it was a somewhat emboldened Hadjikakou who looked forward optimistically to 2021. “Everything is progressing to plan,” he emphasised. “We’ve had to address how we do things to

keep everyone safe, but 2021 is a milestone year for Paccar and there will be plenty to cheer about.” The major milestone was, of course, 50 years of manufacturing Kenworth at Bayswater, but there was also a critical new factory expansion which, according to Hadjikakou, will deliver a significant increase in local assembly of DAFs. By 2022, he asserted, production capacity at Bayswater is expected to be doubled and the obvious goal is for DAF, specifically 11- and 13-litre CF models, to consume a considerable slice of that extra capacity. After the excitement and celebration of Bayswater’s 50 years of truck manufacturing in March, attended by Federal Treasurer Josh Frydenberg, Paccar’s optimism was again on display a few months later at the Brisbane Truck Show where the first public appearance of the new T410 SAR model and a special edition ‘Legend SAR’ headed a first-class presentation of Kenworth and DAF models. Covid, it seemed, was being progressively pummelled into the background. But early confidence was in for a big hit and, as most Australians can now attest, the back half of 2021 has been a shocker. Victorians were again hammered particularly hard by lockdowns and at the time this report was written in mid-October, the Bayswater plant was in the grip of a snap shutdown after a

couple of workers tested positive to Covid-19 as the state endured a sharp spike in infections. “It is perhaps a tougher year,” Hadjikakou said when asked recently if the current year is harder than the last. “People presumed the challenges of Covid would be resolved by now but the situation is worse.” Again, though, the fundamentals stayed strong. “The procedures we integrated into our plant and support functions early last year have stood the test of time and are now just part of what we do.” Nonetheless, it’s a conciliatory Hadjikakou who added: “We are not alone. We face the same headwinds all automotive manufacturing is grappling with. No company is unscathed by these challenges and a robust market means most brands have lead times longer than they’d like.” All up, it has been a hard pill to swallow after such a bright start to the year. However, as 2021 now claws to a close, there is at least glitter midst the gloom for Paccar Australia: market leadership is assured, with Kenworth far ahead of competitors and DAF doing better than ever. The two brands, at the end of the third quarter, collectively accounted for 26.4% of the total Australian heavy-duty truck market, well ahead of a vacillating Volvo Group

Industry New DEALS DEALS Australia and a determined Daimler Trucks Australia; and the Paccar Australia order bank for 2022 is said to be close to capacity, no doubt boosted by the astonishing success of the ‘Legend SAR’, which surpassed even Kenworth’s most optimistic projections by notching more than 750 orders when it went on sale for just one day. Moreover, the road freight industry continues to gallop along, fuelling a heavyduty truck market shaping to crack 13,000 units for the year. And putting the cream on the cake as most Australians now jump to be jabbed, politicians of most persuasions are looking at lockdowns as a last resort in the Covid crisis. Yep, it’s definitely not all bad at Bayswater. Then, of course, there are those ‘other developments’ to look forward to. Those secret special projects. Those whispered design and engineering tasks that look to tomorrow rather than today. Those things that Paccar Australia historically plans and prepares for so well. Those things almost always bubbling behind closed doors in quiet corners of the Bayswater bunker. Things like …

while the certainty is that Kenworth will, sooner or later, launch a reconfigured cabover flagship, the other unknown is whether the leap will be as great as that which marked the jump from K108 to K200. Speculation, of course, can conjure all sorts of concepts but it would seem logical for any rebirth to at least include bold new styling cues and driver convenience features, and, critically, some significant technology enhancements. Maybe, for instance, a standard safety package to finally take the fight for hearts and minds, literally, to the Europeans. Predictably, Hadjikakou would not be drawn on what features a K200 replacement might include, saying only: “The K200 has been Kenworth’s best performing model since its release [and] we always have a range of products in various phases of their development cycle, K-series included.” Whatever, the seemingly ageless K-series is just one part – albeit a massive part, accounting for around 30% of all Bayswater production – in Paccar Australia’s cab-over coterie. The other part is, obviously, DAF and, as

In performance and sales, DAF XF ranks a long way behind its European rivals but the next few years will see major developments that may well include a bold new Cummins-based powertrain. Stay tuned!

Pondering the possibilities It would not be unreasonable, perhaps, to suggest that, after so much effort and expense over recent years in development of dramatic new Kenworth conventional models – the T610, T410 and the retro Legend SAR – Paccar Australia’s brains trust would now be heavily focused on its cab-over class led, of course, by the evergreen K-series. It is, after all, well over a decade since the launch of the all-conquering K200, which, as Kenworth defined it, was “more a complete transfusion than just a shot in the arm” for the iconic K-series. As much as anything else, though, the vastly refashioned cab-over was compelling evidence of the extraordinary design and engineering capabilities that exist within Paccar Australia. The leap, for example, from the ergonomic nightmare of the K108 and its many forebears to the long overdue space and convenience of the K200 was nothing short of chasmic. In fact, so great was the evolutionary lunge in the minds of some (including this one), that the K200 is regarded as arguably Paccar Australia’s greatest engineering achievement in its half-acentury of Australian truck manufacturing. However, the question now is ‘what’s next?’ Paccar Australia is not a company to sit idle and, with rumours gradually gathering of a heavily revamped and renamed (K220) K-series contender, it now appears just a matter of time before big news breaks. Whether it’s 2022 or later is unknown, but

Andrew Hadjikakou drills a message into Federal Treasurer Josh Frydenberg at the 50th anniversary of Kenworth production at Bayswater. Government support initiatives have been powerful assets for keeping equipment sales strong

senior Paccar people have stated numerous times, the Netherlands-based brand is the key to greater growth for Paccar’s Australian interests. As we’ve reported before, “Kenworth is king but have no doubt, the Paccar pendulum is swinging more and more to a Dutch touch” and it would be naïve and foolhardy in the extreme to deny or ignore the emergence of DAF as an increasingly powerful contributor to Paccar Australia’s future goals. Whether by corporate dictum or commercial desire, or both, Hadjikakou has, from the outset, been a strong advocate for the Dutch brand and probably more cognisant of its long-term opportunities than any of his predecessors. And he is not without willing allies, including sales and marketing director Brad May, a rusted-on Kenworth addict who nowadays easily concedes that Paccar’s biggest potential rests with the Dutch truck. “It has taken a very long time and it hasn’t been an easy road with Kenworth as the cultural base [but] DAF is now a critical part of the Paccar culture,” a resolute May said almost two years ago at the introduction of DAF’s current model range. Yet, whereas the versatile DAF CF range with its choice of Paccar MX-11 and MX-13 engines is winning increasing business and is at the core of Paccar’s plans to assemble more

DAFs on Bayswater’s line, the potential of the flagship XF model remains far from fulfilled. Simply put, the XF sits a very long way behind the market acceptance of premium Volvo, Mercedes-Benz and Scania competitors, and it will take something dramatic to bolster the lofty Dutchman’s influence. Like its CF sibling, the XF draws its maximum power from the top 530hp/1,920lbft (395kW/2,603Nm) version of Paccar’s MX-13 engine and while those outputs may be ample for single trailer work, they’re largely off the pace for the bulk of the burgeoning linehaul B-double business. And Paccar’s people know as well as any, it’s the B-double business that holds the key to the XF’s future and, in the process, pushes DAF’s potential to far broader horizons. Unlike the CF, though, an emboldened XF would also have the ability to impact on Kenworth’s existing cab- over business. This is an issue that sits quietly, yet profoundly, within Paccar Australia’s senior ranks but, for now, there’s no clear-cut answer other than the certainty that DAF’s future in this country is being carefully nurtured. A quick fix for the XF might appear to be the installation of a Cummins X15 engine. There’s no doubting the technical expertise of Cummins South Pacific and Paccar Australia to do such a job but the suggestion caused

Industry DEALS a few moments of quiet deliberation when Hadjikakou was asked late last year if such a project was on the cards. Hedging his bets somewhat, he replied: “We are looking at all different opportunities [but] to fill that gap with a high displacement engine makes sense. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens with DAF.” In short, apparent affirmation that a Cummins-powered XF is a strong possibility, but perhaps even greater affirmation that DAF in Europe will provide the platform and the final approval. Either way, a quick fix seems highly unlikely. Fortunately, we may not have to wait too much longer for a clearer picture. There is, for instance, no shortage of talk about a new DAF cab being close to release in Europe and likewise, emerging rumours of an entirely new, lightweight big bore global engine from Cummins. Powertrain strategy Similarly, there has been recent speculation of Paccar developing its own big bore engine, allegedly labelled the MX-15. This, however, is most improbable, though we’re certainly not ruling out the possibility of a

Cummins engine one day bearing the MX mantle, particularly as Paccar Inc. pursues its corporate ‘Paccar Powertrain’ branding strategy. After all, the so-called Paccar 12-speed automated transmission is actually an Eaton Endurant gearbox. So, given Paccar’s immense clout with companies such as Cummins, a Paccar-branded 15-litre engine is not beyond the bounds of believability. But as for Paccar building its own big bore engine, the odds are miniscule. For starters, many high level Paccar executives from Australia and the US have been asked that question many times over many years and, without exception, each has unequivocally and steadfastly answered: “No!” As some like to point out, the big markets today are in the 11- to 13-litre class. It’s easy to accept their answer as fact, simply because it would appear to make no economic sense for Paccar Inc. to spend vast sums on the development and manufacture of an entirely new big bore engine platform when the global demand and subsequent viability for high cube, high horsepower engines is relatively small and largely limited to low volume, highly demanding markets such as Australia.

Cummins X15N. The natural gas version of an entirely new Cummins 15-litre platform. Ignore the gas componentry and it’s easy to see a vastly different block design

Cummins Inc. has revealed an entirely new 15-litre natural gas engine, which is almost certainly the foundation for a radically revised heavy-duty diesel engine range. In natural gas form, the engine is known as the X15N but in a press statement, Cummins refers to the engine as “the launch of our universal 15-litre platform for heavy-duty” and cites a new strategy that “focuses on new powertrains including advanced diesel, natural gas, hydrogen engines, battery electric and fuel cells”. Despite the extensive natural gas componentry, images of the X15N highlight a vastly different block design and, as reported in our accompanying Kenworth feature, the new engine appears to be “built on a sculpted block similar in principle to the livewire Cummins X12 engine”. As we also reported, the new engine is expected to be significantly lighter than the current X15, with Cummins in the US revealing the engine will “weigh 500lb (227kg) less than comparable 15-litre diesel engines currently available on the market”. The announcement of the new engine further fuels speculation that a high horsepower, high torque diesel version,

perhaps labelled M15, will ultimately make an appearance in Australia under a Paccar product. In our estimation, the first recipient will be the flagship XF version of a fully-refurbished DAF range soon to be launched in Europe. It may, however, be a few years yet before a DAF powered by the new Cummins platform appears in Australia. One thing’s for sure: extensive testing here and overseas will precede any launch on the Australian market. In fact, the recent appearance of what looks like a significantly different Cummins engine under a cab-over, which is definitely a Kenworth, suggests local testing may have already started in earnest. Stay tuned!

The smart move, and Paccar is a very smart company, is to continue to rely on specialist suppliers like Cummins and Eaton for powertrain solutions, especially in the highhorsepower class and even more so since the formation of the Eaton Cummins Automated Transmission Technologies joint venture. Thus, long story short and with a generous rub of the crystal ball, here’s what may be an eventual scenario for DAF’s flagship XF to one day crack into the high horsepower class and, in the process, bolster Paccar Australia’s ultimate aspirations for the Dutch truck. First, DAF’s European masters are said to be close to delivering an entirely new range of trucks and among these will be the foundation for a right-hand drive XF with substantial capacity to house and cool a big bore engine of, say, 15 litres. Second, it is becoming more apparent that Cummins is on the cusp of announcing a highly advanced and completely new global engine, which may first come to light as the M15. Built on a sculpted block similar in principle to the livewire Cummins X12 engine, it will be impressively light – as much as 250kg lighter than the current X15 – and therefore ease the burden of high front axle weights that currently trouble many European brands in Australia when punched by big bore engines. In performance terms, it won’t surprise if this entirely new Cummins hits the market

with more than 650hp (485kW) and 2,300lb-ft (3,118Nm) of torque. So, put all these factors together with Paccar Australia’s formidable corporate network, engineering nous and insightful market intelligence, it’s not hard to envisage a DAF flagship capable of digging deep into applications that are today largely beyond its ability. And therein comes the biggest question of all: will this top-shelf DAF be the thin edge of the wedge in eventually replacing Kenworth’s iconic K-series? Maybe. Maybe not. As we’ve written before, the only certainty right now is that, despite the increasing costs of producing K-series purely for the Australian and New Zealand markets, Paccar Australia is unlikely to ever voluntarily withdraw or kill off its classic cab-over. Market forces alone will determine K-series’ future but, judging by the fact it is still Kenworth’s biggest seller, this incredible survivor will be around for many, many years yet. Investment in a new K220 version will prove it beyond doubt. In effect, if people are prepared to keep paying for K-series in sufficient numbers, Paccar Australia will almost certainly continue building it. But as one rusted-on Kenworth addict said some years back in a rare moment of quiet concession: “Nothing lasts forever.”

Apologies for the poor photo quality, believed to have been taken at Paccar’s US headquarters quite a few years back, but it perhaps typifies Paccar’s long-range plans for DAF, particularly in our neck of the woods

O Packing them in at the Gatton Showgrounds on October 2

A seemingly never-ending convoy of shiny trucks en route to Gatton

h boy, am I glad to be writing this little introduction. On Friday, October 1, I was sitting in a truck more nervous than a salad sandwich at a vegetarian buffet. It had nothing to do with my impeccably filled-out work diary, it was all about the Queensland Premier’s morning Covid report. I’d timed my half hour fatigue break to correspond with the press conference and the small area where I could get phone coverage. I waited with bated breath to find out if there were any unconnected cases and, as a consequence, any lockdowns. The confines of a K200 cab meant my celebrations were curtailed by the bruising of my head as I literally hit the roof. No lockdown meant Lights on the Hill 2021 was all go for Saturday, October 2. No lockdown also meant the NRL

grand final as well, but Lights On The Hill was a much bigger reward in my view. So, as I stated earlier, I’m extremely glad I’m getting to write this wrap up of a longawaited weekend of sunshine, stainless, good mates and great trucks. It wasn’t made easy for all of those involved, though. While the news was good on Friday morning, I truly felt for those that were working their big rigs on the Friday. Brisbane and Toowoomba both got hit with a massive storm on the Friday night. Thunderstorms, hail and bucket-loads of rain meant there was a fair bit of last-minute cleaning taking place on the Friday night. I have no doubt there was many a trucking family out polishing after Mother Nature threw that in the mix. After missing out on our 2020 Lights On The Hill weekend, a little thunderstorm wasn’t going to slow things down. Come Saturday morning, the sun was shining and Queensland turned on a pearler for the annual show. Covid had put paid to the 2020 show but not this year and the truckies were lining up. Packing them in I decided to head up to Toowoomba this year, where the Brown & Hurley yard was the meeting point for the western convoy. As a regular Kenworth driver, I’m familiar with the huge Toowoomba Brown & Hurley facility, but not like this. The yard was made to feel like the New York subway as a shipload of trucks were squeezed in. It was great to see so many smiling truckies and families wandering around, chatting and laughing. There was lots of

Jamie Dionysius gets some last-minute cleaning in after working his big Benz until late the night before. He was also another of the helpful volunteers who had spent the morning helping set up

brekkie food and coffee on offer, and plenty of guys and girls running a rag over their trucks to finish off the polishing, amid much laughter. It was the perfect atmosphere. On the stroke of 9.30am, Nolan’s Interstate Transport led the convoy off with Steve behind the wheel of its brand-new SAR Legend. Carrying the banner for the late, great Daniel Nolan, the truck was the perfect frontrunner. It was also great to see so many locals sitting out on front yards and tailgates, supporting such a worthy cause. The

traditional art of ‘arm pumping’ by the young ’uns wasn’t lost either as the road to Gatton danced to the tune of engines and airhorns. It was every truck lover’s dream. As most are aware, the Lights On The Hill convoy is a two-part mission. One convoy heading down the Toowoomba Range to arrive at Gatton and the other leaving from the Port of Brisbane and arriving a short time after the first. After running out of fingers to count on, I left the exact numbers up to the officials, but word circling around puts the total at over 500 entries. It was a tremendous turnout and full credit must go to all those volunteers and organisers involved. It was a fantastic day and a great atmosphere. I won’t keep waffling on because they say a picture speaks a thousand words. So, I’ll let you all get a War & Peace-worth of words in the photos. Go and enjoy Deals on Wheels’ wrap-up of the 2021 Lights On The Hill Memorial Convoy.

oming to the Port of Brisbane early in the morning for the start point of the Lights On The Hill convoy is a stark reminder of how passionate everyone in this industry is.

Chris ‘Snooze’ Parker with wife Hailey and sons Duncan and Blake

Rows of trucks wearing banners proudly stretched across grilles bearing pictures and messages of family members and mates lost to the road, whether through chance, bad luck or ‘just their time’, shows that it takes passion and a genuine love for what you do to be able to continue in an industry after it’s taken away someone close to you. There can’t be any other explanation for it. That’s why it was so heartening to see so many drivers, families and friends out in force to support those who have lost loved ones and to continue the tradition of Lights on the Hill, which this year saw hundreds of trucks in two convoys, leaving from Brisbane and Toowoomba, journeying to the site of the Lights on the Hill memorial in Gatton for the sad task of adding 55 names to the memorial wall. Family affair Chris ‘Snooze’ Parker’s big cab Kenworth K108 has been in the family for five years, with the majority of the work it’s done being local, but that hasn’t stopped Snooze from coming out with wife Hailey and sons Blake and Duncan to Lights On The Hill.

Like most who attend Lights on the Hill, Parker has a personal reason for coming out: to honour a lost mate. “I’ve got a mate of my brother and mine on the front, Adrian Wells; we’re doing this for him,” he said. “In our business, we mainly do earthmoving and also the odd trip here away now and again, not regularly but I use it around town to cart my own gear around. “We’ve got eight machines unfortunately for me, so eight headaches,” he laughed. Live to work Kyall Krause and Ellie Hutchinson represented the new generation coming out to Lights On The Hill, with this year’s event being their first. But, judging by Kyall’s attitude, trucking will be his life-long vocation. “We’ve come out to show our support and respect. This is my first time and I’ve come out with mates and the boss had bought a few trucks out,” he said. Talking about his rig, Krause is succinct and to the point about how the truck is a vital tool of the trade. “It’s just an ordinary tipper, nothing special except the number plate,” he laughed, pointing to the words ‘You Wont’. “I love work and I’m if not working something’s wrong.” On that number plate, it’s pretty open to

interpretation, but what does it actually mean? You won’t overtake me? “Nah, it’s ‘you wont’ do pretty much anything, but if someone tried they probably would,” Krause laughed.

No pushover Jason Maracic’s 2020 Kenworth K200 big cab has done almost 460,000km so, despite being pretty new, it’s run out a few ks already. “I do the Cloncurry run, all supermarket stuff and freeze/chiller goods, so I shoot over to Mareeba or Bowen, wherever the produce is,” he explained. “I was in WA before that. The first time I drove into the Pilbara I said there’s no way you could pay me enough to live in this joint but I ended up spending the best part of 15 years there.” So what was the lure of the west? “The people, the atmosphere and the work,” Maracic said. “I got to do really big oversize stuff and then just running up the coast from Perth to Darwin; it’s the best part of the country to drive a truck. “Also, the transport scene is so much more well-managed than what it is over here. “I just think the fatigue management system in WA is far better than what we have to go through here.

I started when I was 18 in trucks, in semis and then road trains later on. “Mum was also the longest living constantly transplanted organ recipient in the world. She got her first kidney transplant when she was 14.” The banner on the truck reads ‘Five Foot Tall and Bulletproof’, with Maracic recounting an old family tale to let us know his mum, Cheryl Maracic, was no pushover. “She used to have a bit of a temper on her,” Maracic smiled. “When she just got her licence and first car, she saw a bloke on the street who had given her little brother a hiding for no reason, so she lined him up with the car and old mate

legged it over the fence. She didn’t get him, but she took out two fences trying,” Maracic laughed, adding: “No one saw that bloke around after that. “She left it all out on the field and she’s my hero and I reckon she’s here today." Cool running K200 Mal Albert works with the aforementioned Maracic at Coolfreight and his 2021 Kenworth K200 Aerodyne big cab is just that bit newer than Maracic’s. It boasts plenty of shine, which the boys reckon will be cured by doing some ks. Although his truck is new, Albert is anything but a newbie to Lights On The Hill. “This is my seventh year. I’ve got a couple of mates on the wall, a few that have gone on recently and a few that have been on for a while, so I’ve just come out to pay tribute to the boys,” he explained. On trucking through Covid, Albert has gained a different perspective than when it first started. “I recently got double vaccinated. At first I was dead against it but we found out my fiancée was pregnant so I couldn’t go home and run that risk, so I do my best to eliminate it,” he pointed out. “My mum also has long-term medical issues so I can see her now on a more regular basis, too. “But I haven’t had any dramas driving, for

most of last year I was up and down the East Coast and through to Adelaide so I didn’t come near it. And this year we haven’t gone across the border much, so we’ve stayed away.” Painted workhorse Paul Patterson’s Brown and Hurley 75th Diamond edition has only been in the family a couple of months but he’s found time to have a mural put on the back – as he does with a few of his trucks – to celebrate 15 years as a business. “One of the trucks here is dedicated to [wife] Linda’s dad and [good mate] Chook’s father. They were both Vietnam vets and both in tanks, and the 900 is dedicated to my grandfather,” Patterson said. “He drove for Golden Fleece for over 30 years; he was with Golden Fleece when they went from Purple to Golden Fleece and then retired when they changed to Caltex.” While Patterson is a Kenworth man at heart, his fleet is sprinkled with a little bit of everything. Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. “I’ve got an Actros, Coronado, Fuso and another Hino and Volvo body trucks but the Fuso Shogun is the one that’s surprised me. I drove it the other day and I was actually really impressed by it.” Back on more important matters, Patterson and his crew were deeply affect by the loss of friend Michael Bourke, whose name is

one of 55 to go on the memorial wall this year. “It’s for my mate, Bourkey, he passed away just before Christmas last year in WA and we’re getting his name put on the wall tomorrow. That’s the main reason we’re here, but also to support the other families who’ve lost someone.” Jamie Coop Cobie Hambleton has come out to Lights on the Hill this year to honour her best mate, Jamie Coop, to support his family and drive the founding truck of Coop’s sandstone rock business, Rocktrans Enterprises. “It’s a 401 Kenworth and it was Jamie Coop’s. He was my best mate and this is the truck he started in and built the company with and I have the honour of driving it for him today,” Hambleton smiled. “We’ve also got the 909 here, too, and that was the pride of his fleet.” Coop’s family, wife Mandy and son Matty, along with others close to him came out to celebrate his life and honour his memory, with Coop’s name added to the memorial wall. Lone wolf Kenworth Andy Soutar’s 1973 Kenworth is what kids today would call ‘retro’ but, being from the oldschool of interstate drivers, to Soutar it’s just something that makes him smile. “I found this thing in a paddock out at Karara,

south of Warwick. It was a tray truck and I watched it sitting for about two years as I was driving past in my motorhome, and one day I went in to see about it,” he explained. “The bloke wanted $15,000, which was too much. So I let it go for about three months then called him up and said ‘$10,000 cash’ and we did the deal.” After sitting unused for an unknown number of years, Soutar took a chance and rocked up to the property to collect the truck with the hope of driving it home. “I went down and took two batteries. It started straight up and I drove it home. It blew a lot of smoke, though, and the coppers even pulled me up coming into town,” he laughed. “When I got it home, I stripped the tray off and it took me 12 months to do up. I also found out it was a very short wheelbase truck from new – it’s had an extension done on it at some point – and that it was originally bought for the Shell company in Sydney. “That was its first life, I don’t know who had it after that, though.” Since finishing the resto in 2013, Soutar’s taken the Kenny down to Melbourne for Hauling The Hume and also attended a heap of other truck shows around the place. With all that travel to shows, he must miss the call of the open road? “Oh my word ‘yes’, I do miss it. I’m too old now, I’m 84. My son drives, though. I was

an owner-driver my whole life, Brisbane to Adelaide. “In fact why [sister publication] OwnerDriver would know me if there’s any of the oldschool still about, they used to drop out to my place in Jimboomba every month with about 20 bundles of OwnerDriver magazine and I’d put them in my toolbox and drop them off in Adelaide, Mildura, Broken Hill,” he reminisced. “I used to distribute OwnerDriver magazine – I didn’t get paid for it, I did it just to help them out. And when I retired they put ‘Andy’s last run’ on the cover for me.”

Golden Fleece-themed Legend, above left, is in honour of Paul Patterson’s grandfather who worked for the company for 30 years. Above right is another Paul Patterson truck with a story on its back – paying tribute to family and friends who fought in the Vietnam War

Heading out As trucks started their engines around us in readiness to begin the convoy to the memorial in Gatton, Soutar and I said our goodbyes. It was a humbling experience to say the least, speaking with the families and friends of those gone but not forgotten, with experiences like these tending to make you reflect on your own mortality and about how precious life really is. Transport is a tough, dangerous industry – you only need to look at the names already on the wall in Gatton to understand this – but it’s also an industry which is full of resilient, hard-working people who are the heartbeat of transport in Australia. They deserve our thanks, support and appreciation before, not after, they become a name on a wall.

David Armstrong’s search for a project truck culminated in the purchase of a worn-out International R-200. However, his heritage truck showpiece has evolved into a tribute to his late son, Craig Words | Warren Caves

he sub-zero briskness of the morning had abated by lunchtime as I rolled into the rural New South Wales town of Cootamundra – the birthplace of Don Bradman.

David Armstrong originally set out to do up an International R190 or a B-model Mack

The Cootamundra wattle, celebrated in the John Williamson song, were in early stages of bloom as I scanned letterbox numbers for the residence of David Armstrong. I needn’t have bothered. Ahead of me, parked in the quiet street, stood the sky blue R-200 International I was looking for. Armstrong was coming off the back of a busy week carting newspapers from Yass to Cootamundra, so his taking the time out to indulge a classic truck tragic like myself was much appreciated. I was welcomed into the family home and introduced to Armstrong’s wife, Vicki. From the outset, it’s clear that this truck holds a special place in the hearts of the Armstrong family. A hand-painted saw adorns the wall next to the fireplace, featuring an incredibly accurate image of the ‘Money Muncha’, painted by Armstrong's sister, Diane. Not far from that is a laser-cut metal plaque also featuring the truck. On a cupboard on the other side of the room, Armstrong also proudly points out a tin replica of the truck and trailer, made by his son, Craig. Judging by all these symbolic tokens of admiration scattered around the home, this truck’s level of worth is undoubtably

right up there with the family dog. I was shown through some of the photo albums dedicated to the restoration journey of the truck, from the day it was delivered to the finished vehicle (although are they ever really finished?). Vicki fondly remembers the period of restoration and relished the days when Armstrong and his son would say they were going to work on the truck (located some 25kms away). “This would assure me that I had the house to myself for the day,” Vicki laughed. Interestingly, Vicki would play a crucial role in the roadmap to the truck’s restoration, but not in a way you might think. But more on that later. Gum tree Armstrong had worked as a train driver for 15 years before taking up a career in transport, working for Bateups of Cootamundra for 12 years, carting newspapers in mostly six- and eight-tonne UD trucks. Later, he linked with Green Gables Transport doing similar work. He still runs newspapers today, albeit on a smaller scale in a Toyota Hi-Ace van. With transport firmly etched into his psyche, it seems logical that Armstrong would show an interest in trucks during his spare time; an interest that would rub off on Craig. “I started going to truck shows around

DEALS Resto 2006, and this increased my interest, but my main love was for the International R190 series and B-model Macks,” Armstrong said. “I started looking for a truck to buy and realised I couldn’t afford a B-model, so I focused on the R190s.” Four R190s of varying condition were bought before Armstrong ended up with the Money Muncha, as it was to become known. Four trucks were purchased as a job lot from one guy, with the hope of making one decent truck, but their collective condition was found to be unsuitable, so Armstrong salvaged a few parts off of them and moved them on. Vicki, originally from Molong, had known that Ralph Crystal from nearby Larras Lee had some R-series trucks and investigations began. As it would turn out, on the Crystal Springs property owned by Crystal, resting quietly under a gum tree, sat a 1962 R-200 International and it was for sale.

The 10-speed Road Ranger transmission has lasted the distance

Slow ’n steady: The original top speed was 70km/h

The truck was inspected a few times and an informal agreement on a price of $6,000 was discussed, but there was to be twist. Crystal must have had second thoughts, or someone may have suggested that an auction on eBay may garner a better price. Subsequently, the truck was listed on eBay and Armstrong was forced to enter the bidding contest. Now, as far as Armstrong was concerned,

his $6,000 price tag was all he was willing to bid for the truck, at which point he would walk away from the auction. This is where Vicki enters the equation. “I was working and couldn’t effectively bid and monitor the auction, so I asked Vicki to do it for me, with strict instructions not to bid over $6,000,” Armstrong explained. Some time later, Armstrong contacted Vicki to see how the auction went, to which she replied: “We won the truck, but it went for a little more than $6,000.” It would seem that either Vicki was caught up in the excitement of the auction, or felt that this really was the right truck, the one that Armstrong truly had his heart set on, so a few more dollars wouldn’t hurt. Either way, it’s the wife of the year award right there! A wife that ignores her husband’s limit and spends an extra $1,200 on a truck for him. In my book, Vicki deserves a round of applause. That was 2010 but it would take another three years before the truck was road-ready again. The truck was transported to Armstrong’s uncle Harry Brown’s place at Stockinbingal, where the restoration would begin. The

engine and driveline were serviceable as they were, according to Armstrong. The C-160 Cummins engine remains largely untouched, as does the 10-speed Road Ranger transmission and rear axle. That left the renewing of all the wiring and air hoses, which Armstrong credits to his uncle. “It’s not bad having an uncle as handy as he is around trucks.” Countless hours were spent by Armstrong and son Craig, travelling from Cootamundra to Stockinbingal, stripping components and sanding back numerous layers of paint accumulated over the years. From the shed at Stockinbingal the truck was transported to Cootamundra to be sandblasted before going to Taprell Smash Repairs in Cootamundra for rust repairs and final painting in ‘Katoomba Blue’ by Geoff Morton. The R-200 was then carefully reassembled with new rubbers, windscreen, a re-cored radiator and all those other small bits and pieces that need to be sourced far and wide. It also equates to reaching for your wallet with regular monotony – hence the name Money Muncha. Craig, who was 28-years-old at the time the truck project was initiated, was by Armstrong’s side every step of the way, the two men forming a bond over a truck with a common goal. Craig couldn’t wait for the truck to arrive so the pair could get stuck into it. “Craig spurred me on to keep the restoration going; he would always push

me to go out to Stockinbingal to get some more work done. Without Craig’s inspiration, this truck would not be finished today,” Armstrong said. Slow going Time marches on and jobs get pushed aside in favour of other tasks, but there was an unwelcome driver behind Craig’s enthusiasm. His health was not great and his eyesight was failing. He explained to Armstrongthat, if they didn’t keep pushing on, he might not get to see the finished truck. The step fuel tanks were salvaged from the old R-190s Armstrong had earlier purchased and the bucket seats, which were in the

truck when purchased from Crystal, were retained. Armstrong has tried to keep the truck fairly original, only adding a few small touches like the airhorns and a CD player and speakers, which Craig insisted on. “I don’t know why I agreed to the CD player,” Armstrong said. “With the straight-through exhaust pipe, you can’t hear it anyway.” August 2013 was the first chance for the Money Muncha to hit the road; a long absence since it was last registered in 1986. The inaugural trip was to Harden for the purpose of a going-over by the Harden and Historic Truck and Tractor Club inspector Ken McKay. The normally half-hour run out to Harden highlighted a downside to this particular truck’s design. “It took me 45-minutes to get over to Harden; the old girl was a bit slow,” Armstrong said. The 5.72:1 diff ratio topped the truck out at around 70km/h. Armstrong, wanting to travel to truck shows and cruise comfortably at 100km/h, opted to swap out the rear axle with a 4.11:1 ratio replacement, with the added bonus of upgrading to S-cam brakes over the old axle’s wedge type. In what was a bittersweet restoration, Craig eventually saw the truck completed and enjoyed going out on a few runs with his dad. However, Craig eventually became too unwell to go out in the truck, sadly passing away in 2015. Since then, the Money Muncha has been a regular at shows in Gundagai, Harden, Dubbo, Echuca and Lockhart and takes part in the Sylvia’s Gap and the Haulin’ the Hume road runs, where it can be seen with Craig’s wings painted in tribute on the front of the truck. “I take the truck out to shows now and display it in Craig’s honour,” Armstrong explained. While life’s cruel plan was undoubtably hard to take, the long hours Armstrong and his son worked side-by-side to restore this old truck places a value on it that cannot be calculated.
