2018 Kenworth T610 Cummins ISXe5 Eaton Ultrashift auto $279,400 Hallam, VIC Hallam Truck Centre 03 9998 4886

And we do hope it is still available by the time you get to read this.

At a time when prime movers of any sort are getting increasingly hard to find, an absolute gem hits the market. It could be made of onyx.

There’s no need for the good people at Hallam Truck Centre, who have kept this former HTC PacLease rental Kenworth fully maintained through its 220,399km of travel, to tell you it’s in excellent condition.

Just look. It’s pretty near possible to safely eat your dinner off its surfaces.

Beneath and behind the gleaming bonnet of this 2018 Kenworth T610 6x4 are a 550hp (410kW) Cummins ISXe5 reined by an Eaton Ultrashift automated transmission, Airglide 460 suspension, DANA Spicer rear axles at 4.10:1, a Jost ball-race turntable and anti-lock braking system (ABS) drum brakes.

In front of this dangerous goods-compliant and fuel haul spec example is an alloy bullbar with driving lights fitted.

While inside the 600mm sleeper cab, a lucky driver will be cosseted by an ISRI driver’s seat, UHF and stereo, along with an under-bunk fridge, and protected by active cruise braking with collision mitigation, electronic stability program and ABS. And then there’s the battery disconnect switch, battery isolation switch and iROS rollover switch.

At $279,400, you’d be well-advised not to dawdle.

Call it a belated Christmas present. Call it specialised. Call it magnificent. Call it what you will but, as it’s a ‘Mog, it will go anywhere you like and just about do anything you want.

Kirkham, NSW

As one of our truck reviewers once remarked, “it seems the uses for a Unimog are only really limited by one’s imagination”.

What you see here is a former Army U2450L 6x6 wrecker/tow unit. It was the largest of the Unimogs and the German Army, which also used them to transport equipment and heavy weapons, loved them for their ability to climb 45 degree slopes and get through water 1.2m deep.

So, if you are actually after a $218,900 fighting vehicle, you could do much, much worse.

And don’t be put off by its build date of 1999.

This right-hand drive beast boasts a grand total of 1,300km on the dial, more than hinting at modest usage by the boys and girls in khaki.

It comes fitted with Palfinger p067 crane with drop legs – for officionados of such things, it’s an OM366LA series.

It is also armed with two Sepson Hydraulic 11-tonne winches, EDI Gecko D8 under lift tyre pressure system and tow bar.

It is pushed along by a six-cylinder turbo engine stirred by a 16-speed manual transmission.

TIPPER

Outdoor Residential finds NPR 55’s size and features irresistible

We needed the space to turn up to a job with all of the

essential

tools on hand

At the crack of dawn, Cameron McDonald and the team at Outdoor Residential are already out on the road in Sydney’s North Shore, ready for a full day of landscaping and garden care.

With a dual-axle tandem trailer hooked up to their NPR 55-155 Tipper (upgraded from Isuzu’s 4.5-tonne model for extra oomph), McDonald says the crew are ready to get down to business before the sun gets too high in the sky.

“I’m up at 5.30am on the computer, organising our runs for the day and getting the crew scheduled in,” he said.

“We look after around 250 gardens and properties around here on the North Shore, from lawns to landscaping and horticultural maintenance for places like a retirement village over in Chatswood. We’re also licensed to do structural landscaping.

“It’s so rewarding putting the time into a business like this, doing something I’m passionate about. Some of my clients have been with me for almost 25 years.”

Graduating from mowing lawns, he bought two utes and trailers to set up the business.

But, as demand took off, particularly with the pandemic, he was faced with a wellknown dilemma: buy another ute and trailer combo, or upgrade to a truck?

McDonald and his dad explored a few brands around town, checking in with Gilbert and Roach Isuzu in Huntingwood for a look at the NPR 55-155 tipper.

It was the professional dealership staff at Gilbert & Roach who sealed the deal, following up their initial visit with a live video demonstration, showing them a range

of fit-for-purpose options and tipper features in action.

“I wasn’t too sure about what size truck I needed, wanting something that was big enough to haul our equipment and tow a trailer, but small enough to get around town and park in our client’s driveways,” McDonald recalled.

Plainly, he was looking for a bit more than what a ute could offer in this quest.

“One of the key things we needed was the space to have an all-in-one unit where we could turn up to a job with all the essential tools on hand,” he continued.

“The dealership organised a tray roll back to fit an extra-large toolbox between the cab and tray, they put on a bullbar for me, a reverse camera and organised a cover to put over the top of loads.”

The NPR tipper is packed with features that Outdoor Residential team are finding extremely handy and comfortable to work with.

“The auto-release tailgate and drop sides are a real time saver,” McDonald said.

“We’re constantly at the tip, so being able to just reverse back and release is great.

“The reverse camera and motor mirrors on either side mean visibility is good, especially when you’re hooking up a trailer.

“It’s got decent storage behind the centre console, plus the extra width in the NPR cabin makes it easier for three big guys with bags and all our day-to-day stuff to fit in.

“It’s just a no-dramas type of truck. And with the wrap on, it’s got some presence on the road, generating a bit of business for us.”

TNS Logistics’ 2020 Mercedes-Benz Actros

Jarred and Cassy Sacco have come a long way, in both geography and adaptability, to operate one of the most professional heavy haulage outfits in north Queensland.

S&S Heavy Haulage operates some of the coolest Kenworths in Australia, including this rebuilt 2013 C509 workhorse, rated to pull 220 tonnes.

The late Tom Norton, founder of TNS Logistics, is immortalised in the form of this top-of-the-line 580hp 2020 Mercedes-Benz Actros, the standout truck of the fleet. Not a fan of European trucks, Tom’s sons convinced him to look at Mercedes-Benz when the new Actros range was launched. The new Benz boasts enough extras to turn the head of even the most anti-European truckie.

Jason Kemp’s Scania R620

Although not made to order, Jarrod Smith’s Kenworth C509 has been modified to perfection in looks, practicality and performance. Still a working truck for Burgundy Heights around Coffs Harbour’s timber country, the C509 also turns heads at local truck shows thanks to the handywork of TruckArt and RC Metalcraft.

Leeson’s Logging & Cartage’s 2006 Peterbilt has done the hard yards, been placed in the retirement shed and then, following a load of TLC, is back doing what it does best – hauling logs in eastern Victoria.

Initially, Kent Collision and Custom converted the big Pete to right-hand drive as well as making a few other modifications to set it up for Australian conditions. It was later fitted with a new Cummins EGR motor before being stripped, rewired and resprayed.

The immaculate restoration of this 1982 White Road Boss may have been driven by sentimental attachment, but it’s still out on the Mackay roads, five to six days a week, earning money with style and class for Wayne Martin Transport. Although it had been wasting away in a paddock, its Cummins N14 engine was still sound, and underwent a three-month restoration.

Gavin Sutton discovered a retired classic Mack Super-Liner, then spent close on two years refurbishing it with a view to take it around the truck show circuit. But this ’89 bulldog scrubbed up so well it quickly wound up back in the workforce, thanks to Alan Fisher Fabrications, RC Metalcraft, A&K Auto Electrics and a replacement replica Mack bullbar.

Despite more transport companies opting for auto ’boxes, driver-trainer Jason Kemp added this big Scania R620 to his driver training business. With a 16-litre V8 engine, Jason had the truck setup from day dot with an airbag front end, as well as super singles fitted. The tank covers may look factory fitted but, in actual fact, they were designed and built by the geniuses at SLS Customs.

If there’s one type of truck that pleases the general public, it’s one that moves their furniture. Jason Duell’s Kenworth K200 not only performs that task, its eye-catching appearance does the family business proud. With the fuel tanks moved back down the chassis, it freed up some space, allowing Jason to get matching stainless wrapped battery boxes and AdBlue tanks on either side.

Mahnew Transport’s small South Australian fleet was overshadowed by the arrival of this stunning, brand new spruced-up Western Star 4900. Boasting a 58-inch bunk, wrapped dash, eight-inch stacks, a custom built front bar and a striking Toyota Starlet Green paintjob, the truck turns heads wherever it runs.

Easily the biggest rig in the company, this T610 SAR has proven to be a leap ahead for Kenworth in terms of safety features and technology. Its 54-inch bunk is a winner for Jayden McClintock, the lucky member of the family business who gets to drive the big rig. Although keeping with the company’s white appearance, Rocklea Truck Electrical added extra lights – and shine.

Nothing stands out better than a Peterbilt – especially when it’s a tri-axle configuration painted up in rose red.

The showpiece of Dial-A Tow’s Adelaide-based fleet, this 2007 model is powered by a Cummins EGR engine, with a wheelbase of 12 metres from bullbar to underlift. The work gear on the back is a Century 70/35, which has a 35-tonne boom and 35,000lb winches.

Rasdeep Singh Bajwa, better known as ‘Rusty’, operates Flying Horse Transport. The pride of the fleet is this amazing bright-orange Kenworth T909. Rusty added bling, extra lights and more shine than any factory-built truck, plus a souped-up stereo, microwave, TV and fridge to the interior.

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.”

AdBlue shortage has trucking on tenterhooks Ofload is cashed up and ready to expand Iveco looks beyond domestic manufacturing Prime minister flags national port logistics probe

5/1/2022 10:01 am

Diagnostics: Forward Vision

Front of mind The public eye has never been more focused on trucking Trucking can be in turns backbreaking, immensely satisfying, mind-breaking, rewarding when things are going your way, tragic and a lot of fun.

It is also endlessly fascinating and chock full of drama.

As we enter a new year, it is on the agenda again for those who must be obeyed and the general populace.

For one that has seemed ‘the only invisible industry in front of everyone’s eyes’ for so long, these past two years have widened the public’s eyelids like few in living memory.

For, by the time you read this, the nation will have a better appreciation of whether it will ‘stop’.

Yes, the sentiment of those signs on bullbars and the back of trailers will get a thorough workout, if the best efforts of the Department of Trade and the AdBlue taskforce fail to hit the mark.

And if the worst does happen, the general fury and social dislocation will make the anti-vaccination crowd’s efforts look little more than a child’s foot-stamp. And in the lead-up to an election . . .

But let’s be real about that. Like ensuring there is power to keep the lights and stoves on and water in the taps or defending the nation in war, no government worth the name can afford freight transport and delivery to halt. Some Australians might actually starve.

Let’s be charitable and assume that the lessons of the past two years

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

have been learnt by this federal government and that inertia and complacency would lead to a critical failure.

And there is hope that representations to the likes of Indonesia, the Gulf states and Japan on urea supply will bear fruit.

But, again, to be speaking of trucking in particular, and transport and logistics more generally, in the same breath as life’s essentials and national defence shows the potency of the realisation.

Whereas, 20 months ago, the public learnt to use the phrase “supply chain” as naturally as their parents once did “inflation” and “deficits”, they have now come to terms with “AdBlue”.

Really? Yes, really. How quickly they forget it is another matter but the seed of trucking’s essential aspect in the running of the economy is growing like never before.

And, like a capitalist economy should, firms are mobilising to become urea suppliers, spurred by the business opportunity of a product that, in mid-December, had quadrupled in price.

The danger for them is holding on to the market when things get back to some sort of normality, if indeed it does.

The Achilles heel of ‘supply-chain sovereignty’, the otherwise laudable goal that the Victorian Transport Association advocated last month, is, at least in the case of AdBlue, subject to the risk of wipe-out through cheaper imports down the track.

It might be possible to set up a ‘strategic urea reserve’ but it’s hard to see that kite flying once the concern has passed and the election is out of the way. It’s how things roll in this country.

The end of last year also brought those ups and downs that T&L has in abundance.

One absolute negative was the alarming trend reversal of fatal crashes involving heavy articulated trucks.

For most of the previous decade, ‘articulates’ were a shining light in this regard, with barely a year going by without another fall and the trend going entirely the right way.

Heavy rigids wore the recalcitrant’s badge. But that changed around the start of 2019 and there has been an increasing divergence since.

It should go without saying that relying on the raw figures is beyond simplistic, it can be downright misleading. Not least because they are a fraction of the overall toll and therefor subject to percentage fluctuation. But it is a warning against complacency – that word again – and a reminder that this is about people’s very lives.

Meanwhile, a serious positive was to see three sector players win categories in the National Safety Council of Australia annual awards out of 12 relevant gongs.

So, congratulations, then, Linfox (Best Wellbeing Program), Australia Post (Best Return & Recovery at Work System) and Toyota Material Handling Australia (Best Solution of a WHS Risk [Large Business]).

Talk about an industry punching above its weight!

Dogs & Chains Every time our people go to South Australia, they seem to be drawn to one of many wine regions for some reason. At the risk of sounding like a tourism marketing type – not that there’s anything wrong with that, just ask the prime minister – there’s far more to it than that. Take the History Trust of South Australia, for example. It’s home to one of the country’s most famed and historic vehicles: a Leyland Badger. This one is worth a pilgrimage. Why? Well, as the trust says: “This truck and its most well-known driver, Tom Kruse, were made famous in 1954 when they featured in a scripted documentary, The Back of Beyond, filmed by John Heyer and the Shell Film Unit. This film won Australia’s first International Grand Prix Assoluto at the Venice Biennale (1954). The truck was first imported by local Outback transport operator and mail contractor Harry Ding. In 1936 Ding, at his main base in Yunta, secured

the Marree-to-Birdsville mail contract, a 1,000 kilometre round trip to tiny towns and enormous cattle stations. One of his workers, the 21-yearold Tom Kruse, began the first delivery under Ding’s contract on 1 January 1936.” As said, worth a pilgrimage.

We at the kennel love the truck in all its guises and uses. And we’re not squeamish about some of the dirty jobs that someone has to do with them. Indeed, though we may have quibbled whether highlighting such work to even up the gender disparity amongst skilled drivers is wise, our admiration was untouched. So, we dip our lids to Victoria’s Warrnambool City Council, which crowed to the heavens about its new jet/vac truck. Well, you’ve got to keep your citizens up to speed on all that good work. The vehicle is helping clear a significant drainage maintenance backlog, while allowing staff to quickly respond to blockages in the event of heavy rain. It is equipped with a high-pressure water hose that breaks up debris up to 100m along the drainage pipe, while a second hose acts as a vacuum, sucking the material into the truck. “Now that the truck is up and running, our staff are working hard to clear the maintenance backlog that has built up over time, and I’d like to thank our drainage team on their continued efforts,” council CEO Peter Schneider reported. “Depending on the type of drain, the team are now cleaning 50 to 60 drains a week. Back when things were done by hand, one drain could take all day.” If a big, smelly job needs to be done, get a truck. For the record, in August 2020, the council awarded a $511,000 tender for the Hino truck and Spoutvac body. No wonder Spoutvac parent Bucher Municipal, in its various incarnation, has clocked up 70 years or more in this country. . .

To the good ol’ US of A, where, naturally, it’s ever-resourceful folk have found a way to marry the nifty ‘Tiny House’ trend with the light-duty rigid truck. In this case, a 1999 Ford E-450. Sure ain’t purty but obviously a match made in someone’s heaven. Apparently the vehicle is “called Concert Car and would have served as both a show home and tiny concert venue”. Winnebago, eat your heart out!

Ofload cashes up with expansion in mind Australian freight platform start-up seeks 100 more staff in its second year Sydney-based logistics platform Ofload reports that has closed its ‘Series A’ funding round in less than four weeks, raising $20 million in national and international private capital.

The company changed its name from Loadsmile in August 2020, following the gaining of $2.8 million in seed money in a raising that attracted container shipping behemoth Maersk’s venture capital arm Maersk Growth, Global Founders Capital and Flash Ventures.

“The funding will support the digital freight forwarder and transport management start-up to expand operations and recruit more than 100 new people,” Ofload said of the new cash.

It comes after the start-up announced it raised $3.8 million of additional funding in August to accelerate its “push for road freight sustainability”.

It brings Ofload’s total investment to $27.5 million in under two years.

“We have now amassed an aggregated fleet of more than 1,600 carriers and 15,000+ trucks nationwide, and are working with more than 55 of the largest companies in Australia,” founder and CEO Geoffroy Henry said.

“In recent months, Freedom Foods has joined the likes of Marley Spoon, FedEx, Doehler, and AP Moller – Maersk, to leverage Ofload for their inland logistics operations in Australia.”

Despite the pandemic, investment appetite for Australian digital logistics solutions is solid, with WiseTech, on the software side, a beacon of what can be achieved, though GetSwift’s regulatory travails show that the path can sometimes be bumpy.

This latest raising followed a strong fourth-quarter performance, where Ofload said it had recorded a 550% year-on-year (YoY) revenue increase.

Geoffroy Henry

Since August, the start-up has made further moves to strengthen its presence locally, with 15 new hires.

“The logistics industry has kept Australia moving throughout two years of lockdowns and disruptions to both local and international trade,” Henry said.

“The Covid-19 pandemic forced shippers to find alternative and more

nimble freight solutions to sustain the demand.

“As a result, we continue to experience rapid growth, with carriers resonating in our approach, and plan for 300% growth YoY in 2022.

“To scale even faster, we’re looking to unlock the potential of homegrown talent with more than 100 new hires locally.

“Focused on disrupting the industry for the better with techbased products that tackle major inefficiencies, we’re also aiming to release our TMS SaaS [transport management service software-as-aservice] offering within the first half of 2022.

“In addition to this, we’ve got our sights set on local M&A [mergers and acquisitions] opportunities to continue our momentum in empowering the long tail of small- to medium-sized carriers to compete against the larger players that dominate the market.”

Spirit ships take pandemic in their stride TT-Line’s two Spirit of Tasmania ships saw freight traffic step in as passengers were blocked due to Covid-19 restrictions, the ferry service’s annual performance revealed.

The Tasmanian government-owned enterprise pivoted to freight passenger eased due to border restrictions, state infrastructure and transport minister Michael Ferguson has noted.

This involved amongst other things, offering a premium ‘last to leave, first to arrive’ freight service, which was further expanded when passenger demand dropped.

The shipping container record now stands at 122,131 20-foot equivalent units (TEUs) of freight carried in 2020–21.

This is well up on the 110,561 TEUs carried in 2019–20, the last full year of unconstrained passenger demand.

Passenger numbers for 2020–21 were only 232,849, well down on the 451,932 passengers carried in 2018–19, the previous fully unconstrained year, bearing in mind that 2019–20 was constrained for much of the time.

“For long periods of time over the past two years the Spirits have carried only returning Tasmanians and essential workers, including freight drivers,” Ferguson said.

“Through this time, the Spirits continued to sail and maintained an essential transport link with mainland Australia.

“These results highlight the crucial role the Spirits of Tasmania play as an essential service and connection to mainland Australia for passenger travel and time sensitive freight in and out of Tasmania.”

Bolt from the AdBlue A simple aspect of running diesel engines is now a threat, and not just to the economy It started quietly enough in a land far, far away, with reports that South Korean drivers were experiencing some discomfort due to the lack of the diesel emissions fluid (DEF) that we like to call AdBlue.

Due to it seemingly being someone else’s problem, it was barely noticed – until it was.

The issue for the South Koreans was its main source is China and that country was experiencing a shortage in its main constituent, that amazingly flexible and useful chemical, urea.

This was a few months ago but, in the last couple of months of the year, the realisation dawned that China was also Australia’s main supplier and local supplies were growing short, if not running out in some locales.

What had been an annoyance then began to simmer into serious concern in parts of the trucking industry, and then to all of it.

Here, an interesting dynamic began to unfold between a trucking sector already dealing with another shortage integral to its well-being, skilled truck drivers, and suppliers, who saw the issue as crucial but

was experiencing it at one remove.

The hue and cry was raised by the National Road Transport Association (NatRoad), which abruptly announced in early December that it was meeting the federal government about the problem.

It had been fielding calls from members reporting retail shortages and now wanted swift action “We will be making sure that the transport minister [Dan Tehan] [and] deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce [are] briefed on the potential impact on the national supply chain and on our members,” NatRoad CEO Clark said, while calling for a

James Fazzino

A taskforce has now been set up to address the AdBlue shortage

taskforce to be set up and noting that the ball was “squarely in the federal government’s court in terms of finding an alternate source”.

The Australian Trucking Association (ATA) immediately swung behind its member body, with ATA chief of staff Bill McKinley saying the organisation had been working closely with member body associations, AdBlue suppliers and truck manufacturers to develop solutions that could be put to the federal government.

“The government needs to provide more support to Australian AdBlue suppliers in their efforts to source urea overseas,” McKinley said, while noting the value of the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) being involved.

“The government and the NHVR also need to work domestically with truck manufacturers and operators to develop ways to deal with the shortage as it gets worse.

“It can’t wait another week. It certainly can’t wait until after Christmas.”

And this is where a shadow fell between the national trucking bodies and Heavy Vehicle Industry

Feature HVIA has called for calm and to not panic buy AdBlue

Australia (HVIA), which represents industry suppliers, which wanted an altogether more quiet and deliberate approach.

HVIA CEO Todd Hacking said his organisation had hoped to avoid exacerbating industry fears and any trend towards panic buying.

“Whilst it is true, most AdBlue distributors are being cautious and rationing supply, the operators who had heard of the issue have been trying to bulk-buy the commodity,” Hacking noted.

“No Australian needs an analogy to know where that situation ends.

“HVIA has been working with the Department of Infrastructure and the NHVR towards ensuring a coordinated approach.

“We called for an industry-wide round table, to ensure that all affected stakeholders could table their concerns, ensure the facts were clear, and solutions and contingencies developed.

“Our hope was to calm concerns through a factual communique for the industry.”

HVIA had addressed the issue publically once it had entered the public domain.

“This is unfortunate,” Hacking said.

“Often, effective advocacy is not about being the loudest in the room or the first to issue a media statement.

“It is far more about bringing all affected parties to the table to strategise and tackle the issues before they become a problem.

“HVIA still believes there is a role for an industry-wide roundtable.

“We are confident this can be achieved relatively expeditiously, and by doing so, we are confident solutions can be developed.”

He added: “This is big issue, and a coordinated effort is the only way to deliver the best strategic outcome for the industry and the country, but the first step is to stay calm.”

But it is one thing to have a valued customer feeling threatened and being threatened one’s self, and trucking wanted action.

In the end, NatRoad and the ATA got the federal governnment’s attention and the national taskforce it

sought, while federal ministers were left to call for the sort of calm and avoidance of panic-buying the HVIA wanted all along.

But not before trucking let it be known it was unimpressed with an earlier round-table discussion involving suppliers and government.

It was down to federal industry minister Angus Taylor to announce that action on December 10, when the national had 15 million litres of five weeks’ supply available to all diesel vehicles, including cars.

The taskforce is being led by James Fazzino, chair of Manufacturing Australia and former CEO of Incitec Pivot, along with Andrew Liveris, former chairman and CEO of The Dow Chemical Company, and Dr Cathy Foley, Australia’s chief scientist.

Additional industry members were to be confirmed in due course.

And, while the ATA wanted the NHVR involved, ATN understands it can only act with ministerial direction against its role to enforce national regulations that make AdBlue compliance mandatory.

Meanwhile, Victorian Transport Association (VTA) CEO Peter Anderson took a wider view, casting the issue as significant but part of more general issue – supply chain sovereignty.

Anderson saw this as a critical juncture, with supply chain headwinds on several fronts threatening consumer confidence, economic security and the standard of living generations of Australians have become accustomed to.

“At stake, unless governments do more to support the transport industry’s pivot to attaining supplychain sovereignty, is our ability to supply the basic needs of Australians all over the country,” VTA CEO Peter Anderson said.

“Supply chains in Australia have been under immense pressure at the best of times over the past decade, but Covid has exposed the deep structural flaws that have put them on the brink of collapse.

“Labour shortages and an ageing workforce of drivers has been an issue for years, but Covid and the way it has driven workers from the industry through restrictions, compliance and vaccination mandates is starting to resonate in the community.

“For example, the heavy-vehicle licencing system that discourages young and capable people from considering a career as a professional transport worker is alienating a new generation of workers and undermining renewal of an essential workforce.

“And now we have reports of a lack of supply of a key engine additive our industry uses to keep the wheels of our economy turning, because China has halted exports of urea, one of the main ingredients in the AdBlue emissions reduction additive.

“If we as a nation can’t maintain supply of a basic engine additive relied upon by hundreds of thousands of commuters and commercial vehicles, we’re in huge strife.”

One of the a Load Restraint Village Tour visits

NSW councils hail load restraint education results Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative project figures show safety gains Central NSW councils have dubbed a regional load-restraint education effort a success and will bolster trucking industry arguments on the value of education in boosting industry safety.

Parkes, Forbes and Lachlan shire councils’ Load Restraint Education Project aimed to increase awareness of load restraint fundamentals and decrease the number of loadrestraint incidents and breaches occurring on local roads.

“The results of the project show that load-restraint awareness amongst the target group – farmers and transport companies – did improve over the course of the project and we have seen load restraint breaches decrease 69% this year, with no incidents occurring,” project coordinator and the councils’ road safety and injury prevention officer Melanie Suitor said.

“These are amazing results and I’d like to thank everyone that was involved in the project for ensuring

it was a success – it really was a team effort.”

The federally-funded project initiated through the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator’s (NHVR’s) Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative (HVSI) was supported by NSW Police, NSW Farmers and Transport for NSW, with assistance from NSW Rural Fire Service, SafeWork NSW and NSW Health’s Rural Adversity Mental Health Program.

NHVR CEO Sal Petroccitto said the project demonstrates the benefits of the HVSI, where initiatives are driven by industry, for industry.

“Managing loading requirements is a key safety focus for the NHVR and industry,” Petroccitto continued.

“The NHVR is proud to support this community-oriented project that will help improve the safety of heavy vehicle drivers and all road users.”

The project focused on the

safe transportation of hay bales, machinery and general freight, to cover the majority of load types in the region.

Strategies included; a pre and post online awareness quiz, the development of how-to videos and accompanying fact sheets, promoting case studies, social media, a Load Restraint Village Tour visiting 12 local villages across the three shires, and the distribution of load restraint packs.

Project results included: • more than 100 farmers attended the Load Restraint Village Tour and all provided positive feedback about the program • the how-to videos have had more than 1,000 views • 1,100 additional load restraint packs have been distributed to the local community • 311,740 people were reached through social media posts and there were 5,070 engagements – this was across five Facebook pages • small increases in awareness were recorded for two of the online quiz questions (most appropriate lashing to use to tie down a tractor and what to do if you notice your load of hay has shifted during the trip) Police enforcement figures up to August 2021, show that local load restraint breaches have decreased 69% on the 2020 figures and 54% based on the 2019 figures, with no load restraint incidents recorded thus far in 2021.

“The Load Restraint Education Project has been one of the best experiences I’ve been involved in during my 20 years in road safety,” Suitor said.

“The project addressed a local issue of concern, developed high quality collateral and saw grassroots community engagement, resulting in increased awareness and decreased load restraint breaches.”

News Sixty-two per cent of operators have lost an average of 4% of drivers due to vaccine mandates

Pandemic response risks running freight off the road: VTA Covid compliance and vaccine mandates plus existing labour shortage seen crippling operators How states are handling Covid compliance is about to get more complicated, with a new variant causing national anxiety and the present rules threatening freight transport.

The former, courtesy of Omicron variant, is widely reported but the results of a survey conducted by the Victorian Transport Association (VTA) is likely to be less so.

It shows that onerous compliance measures and vaccine mandates for freight workers are wreaking havoc on road transport operators.

The VTA said it had queried more than 75 small, medium and large operators carrying freight ranging from chemicals and fuel, construction goods, agricultural, food, groceries and general merchandise about a range of issues that have emerged during the pandemic.

The goal was to understand how regulatory adjustments might assist an industry trying to overcome massive supply-chain pressures leading into Christmas and beyond.

Among other things, it found that Covid restrictions have exacerbated an already existing issue of driver shortages.

“The survey results reaffirmed the industry’s concerns over driver supply and a government system that restricts the industry from attracting young people,” the association said.

“The survey offered a timely insight into the sentiments of the road freight industry.”

Among the key findings were:

• 84% of operators said Covid restrictions had negatively impacted their business • 62% of operators have lost an average of 4% of their drivers because of mandatory vaccinations, with one operator surveyed losing half his drivers • 95% of operators are experiencing a shortage of drivers, with nearly 1,800 vacancies in the responding companies alone • 90% of operators said they would support regulatory changes enabling 18-year-olds to be trained to attain a heavy vehicle licence.

VTA CEO Peter Anderson said the survey echoed concerns his organisation had been advocating for months and that unless action was taken to help industry attract new drivers, supply chains would continue to be vulnerable, putting upward pressure on consumer costs.

“When 95% of operators say they can’t find enough drivers, it confirms more needs to be done by governments in partnership with industry to recruit people,” VTA CEO Peter Anderson said.

“Victoria’s heavy vehicle licencing system is broken and we need urgent action to attract young people to our rapidly aging profession.

“Nine in 10 operators said they would support a licencing regime that would professionally train and employ 18-year-old school leavers to drive a heavy vehicle.”

Anderson urged the state government to act on this

information, warning that otherwise the shortage will worsen as older drivers retire, with the inevitable consequences being higher consumer prices at the till.

“Losing an average 4% of drivers is the last thing an operator needs in the middle of a labour shortage crisis,” Anderson said.

“Vaccine mandates that have driven some out of the profession underscores our industry’s urgent need for licensing reform to attract young, new people to freight and logistics.

“If you can pilot a plane at 16 and fight in the armed forces overseas at 18, there’s no reason an 18-year-old couldn’t be trusted behind the wheel of a heavy vehicle after extensive training and instruction.”

Freestone’s Transport MD Paul Freestone observed that the labour shortage is the worst he’s seen in his 50 years in transport.

“Fuel and labour are the biggest costs for operators and, if we don’t increase our pool of drivers, costs will increase extraordinarily,” Freestone said.

“The single biggest impediment to recruiting new drivers is an out-ofdate licensing system that prevents the industry from training young, competent people for a career as a professional driver.”

The survey also queried respondents about their environmental policies at a time when the national conversation about emissions reductions is fever-pitched.

Three-quarters (76%) of operators have an environmental policy in their business and 82% would support regulatory changes to encourage low emission heavy vehicles.

“The quickest way to reduce heavy vehicle emissions is to incentivise operators to replace their fleets with vehicles that have lower emitting Euro 5 and 6 engines.”

Anderson said.

Respondents were also asked about the three biggest issues they would face next year with labour availability (96%), costs and rates management (62%) and fuel pricing (50%) the most pressing for freight operators.

Researchers seek to remove pandemic freight efficiency obstacles Project seen as green light to speed up deliveries in wake of Covid-19 delays Technology is increasingly promising to fill freight-transport data voids, with the ‘FreightSync Roadmap’ initiative the latest cab off this rank.

As part of a new national pilot program led by Curtin University, the proof-of-concept project aims to track the near-live movements of a fleet of freight vehicles via a new digital roadmap developed over the last 18 months, in conjunction with transport agencies and industry partners nationally.

The goal is to offer faster deliveries and ease traffic congestion, in light of delays caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

The project comes 18 months after the release of a report on the concept, titled Introducing the ‘FreightSync Roadmap – A Pathway to Linking Freight Vehicles and Transport Systems.

Lead researcher Dr Charlie Hargroves, from the Curtin University Sustainability Policy Institute, said the FreightSync Roadmap had the potential to enhance the efficiency of Australia’s freight network, which remained a significant driver of the nation’s economy.

“Given the contribution to the nation’s gross domestic product, there is a real need to find ways to increase the efficiency of freight movement while improving overall

Dr Charlie Hargroves

traffic congestion,” Hargroves said.

“Currently, freight vehicles are effectively invisible to the traffic management system with transport agencies largely relying on periodic surveys to get a glimpse of how they move around our streets.

“Through the use of a trusted ‘freight observatory’ that collects near real-time data via strict consent agreements, the FreightSync Roadmap offers a clear and progressive approach to sharing vital data between the private freight and logistics sector and transport agencies to ultimately ease traffic congestion, improve road safety and enhance the efficiency of freight movement.”

Hargroves said there had never been a more important time for greater efficiencies in freight movements given the nation’s fastgrowing cities and the implications of the Covid-19 pandemic.

“The pressure that the Covid-19 pandemic has put on global supply chains has resulted in significant delays in the movement of freight in and out of, and around, the country,” he added.

“Now is the time for this important data to move to a digital platform that allows near real-time data sharing in a bid to inform a range of efforts that improve the transport system for all users and speed up the timing of freight deliveries.”

The research team also includes professor Bela Stantic from Griffith University, Dr Darcy Allen from RMIT University and John Curtin distinguished professor Peter Newman and Ben James from Curtin University.

This pilot project has been developed with funding and support provided by Australia’s Sustainable Built Environment National Research Centre (SBEnrc) and its partners, including the Fremantle Ports Authority and Telstra. Core Members of SBEnrc include BGC, Queensland and Western Australia governments, Curtin University, Griffith University and RMIT University.

News Scott Morrison

Prime minister flags federal ports and freight probe National container transport issues in unusually strong focus Prime minister Scott Morrison has foreshadowed a Productivity Commission examination of the nation’s disfunctional ports logistics system.

The federal probe was revealed in a virtual address Australian Industry Group (AiG) recently.

This comes at a time of greatly increased scrutiny of the container line industry as it impacts domestically and operates internationally.

The port container logistics sector has been a focus of sustained criticism from haulage interests for decades but this has ramped up in recent years due to soaring unregulated landside charges and imposts from stevedores and neglect of market mechanism that has seen local and export costs rise.

This has been brought into even sharper focus by pandemicinduced trade disruption and huge shipping cost increases, exacerbated locally by industrial action, which Morrison noted.

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) is already in the midst of its own review of international container shipping and handling, and the protection afforded by Part X of the federal Competition and Consumer Act. “In light of the recent ACCC

Container Monitoring report, the government is also examining broader issues associated with the relative productivity of Australian ports,” he told the AiG. “Ports are the gateway for our economy. Inefficient ports are a tax on all of us.

“Coalition governments – Liberals and Nationals – have always understood this, and have always been prepared to take action to ensure our ports can

serve our economy as best as they possibly can.

“And we are taking action by improving port productivity through infrastructure projects, tackling regulatory inefficiencies at the Australian border through the Simplified Trade System, which will streamline compliance costs for Australian importers and exporters while replacing legacy ICT [information and communications technology] systems.

“Now, it’s clear, however, that productivity challenges remain in Australia’s maritime logistics system. These relate to competition, industrial relations, infrastructure constraints and technology uptake.

“Now, shortly, the Treasurer will be releasing the terms of reference for a Productivity Commission enquiry into the efficiency of our maritime logistics system.

“This is not an enquiry that I see going on for a long time. I want to see this back here by the middle of the year.”

Melbourne port rail project kicks off Work on long-awaited Port of Melbourne rail infrastructure is underway.

The activity is in support of the $125 million Port Rail Transformation Project.

A certain sense of urgency accompanied the state Department of Victoria announcement; the department noting the increasing pressure of container throughtput the port is facing.

“The Port of Melbourne has been working to ensure that the port supply chain is operating as efficiently as possible throughout the pandemic, following a 14.6% increase in containers coming through the port in the 2020/2021 financial year compared to 2019/2020,” it said.

“Delivering a boost to local exporters and the economy, the new rail infrastructure will help importers move containers to distribution centres around Melbourne more efficiently.”

The works include a new rail terminal that interfaces with the East Swanson Dock container terminal.

The department pointed out that improving rail access to the port is a legislated condition of the Port of Melbourne lease following privatisation in 2016 “and is vital to improving freight efficiency and encouraging more freight onto rail”.

WSP and Seymour Whyte Constructions undertook early project planning with site investigations earlier this year.

Completion is set for 2023.

More Tasmania driver training initiative details released Courses in new program for heavy-duty truck drivers and others The Tasmanian government has released further information on the state’s freight transport skills effort.

The course details follow a Tasmanian Transport Association (TTA) report, Tasmanian Transport and Logistics Industry Workforce Plan 2020-2030, into gaps between new entrants being licensed and being job-ready.

The TTA received an $80,000 grant Heavy Vehicle Driver Licensing Plus (HVDL Plus) pilot program to address this gap.

“The grant supports the delivery the HVDL Plus pilot program over 2021–2022,” state infrastructure and transport minister Michael Ferguson said.

“I was delighted to meet some of participants of the pilot today and I commend transport industry company De Bruyn Transport for their leadership in this space.”

The HVDL Plus program includes the following course components: • heavy vehicle driver licence • high risk work licence (Forklift) • safe manual handling • fatigue management obligations and how to complete the national driver work diary • Chain of Responsibility awareness • load safety and load restraint • transport industry laws, regulations and compliance, including mass, dimensions, loading and gross vehicle mass • demonstrated work aptitude • customer service skills • company and customer site inductions.

All applicants will go through a selection process run by the TTA. After completing the course, job-ready graduates are to be connected with transport industry employers looking for heavy vehicle drivers.

Centurion and BHP flick switch on electric transport Freight firm sees eCanter join it fleet for Mackay operations Generally synonymous with big bore diesel-powered heavy combinations, mining and resources-focused transport group Centurion has unveiled its first electric truck.

The move – a first for the company and part of its national emissionsreduction policy – is in conjunction with massive mining customer BHP and the Fuso eCanter will operate from Centurion’s Mackay facility.

There, Centurion provides thirdparty logistics (3PL) and network services to multiple mine sites across Central Queensland.

“Today is a significant step for Centurion and our early steps towards low-carbon operations across our business, with this newly deployed fully-electric truck being the cornerstone of making our services to BHP more sustainable,” Centurion CEO Justin Cardaci said.

“While we’re deploying zeroemission vehicles within our fleet, Centurion is also exploring alternative fuel supplies that will contribute to reducing our carbon footprint.

“As Centurion continues to invest in modern trucks, we are constantly looking for ways to apply new technologies to decarbonise our operations.

Justin Cardaci with his first electric truck

“Currently, we are introducing highproductivity vehicles across our fleet, exploring options for nature-based offsets and accessing renewable energy across our sites in Western Australia, Queensland and the Northern Territory.”

The Fuso eCanter is distributed by Daimler Truck and Bus, with whom Centurion has a long-established relationship as one of the suppliers of the company’s fleet of trucks.

President and CEO Daniel Whitehead said Daimler was proud of its association with Centurion – one of Daimler’s biggest partners.

“Centurion is taking a pioneering role when it comes to zero emission freight transportation in Australia and adding the ground-breaking Fuso eCanter to its fleet,” Whitehead added.

“We are very pleased to be able to offer Centurion the only original equipment manufacturer electric truck with active safety technology in Australia.”

Cardaci noted Centurion’s operations were continuing to expand as Australia’s domestic freight needs increase.

“Together with our partners we will continue our commitment to building sustainable and reliable supply chains for the future,” he said.

Navia in WA expansion with Keys purchase Complementary skills and abilities seen in combined businesses A solid example of consolidation has occurred in the Australian forwarding and logistics sector with Navia acquiring Western Australian’s Keys Freight & Logistics.

The move, for an undisclosed sum, gives Melbourne-headquartered Navia a Perth presence to go with its international freight forwarding and customs brokerage with offices internationally in Auckland, Chicago, Penang and Budapest, and locally in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne.

Keys founder Cos Breglia will continue to lead the team in Perth, and joins the leadership team at Navia.

“Keys Freight identified that both technology and scale are necessary to support its future growth,” Breglia said.

“Navia, meanwhile, has a world-beating

Simon Borg

Cos Breglia

technology suite, as well as the scale of a larger entity.

“Navia had voiced ambitions to enter the Western Australian market and it quickly became apparent that Keys Freight joining the Navia network would provide the solutions both companies desired.”

Formed in 2003, Navia is a full-service freight and logistics company.

It has a strong focus on tech-based solutions – its NaviaHub platform supply chain solution includes apps and dashboards for online bookings, tracking and supply-chain metrics.

“Keys Freight and Logistics is very much a hometown hero, and the team Cos leads are experts who are passionate about

the customer experience,” Navia CEO and founder Simon Borg.

“With Navia’s technological capabilities, the core values we share and the complementary skills and abilities of the combined businesses, this expansion will turbocharge our growth in this and other markets. It will also provide our staff with exciting opportunities to advance their careers within an expanded organisation.”

Keys was founded in 2015 and the company’s core business is logistics, arranging the transportation and clearance of commercial cargo – including e-commerce. It provides Customs clearance, warehousing and interstate transport.

New guidelines seen boosting freight infrastructure Funding rules welcomed but need for more improvements highlighted More truck rest areas and better bridges are on the way, with the federal government announcing new funding guidelines.

The government re-opened applications for projects under the Heavy Vehicle Safety and Productivity Program (HVSPP) and the Bridges Renewal Program (BRP).

The announcement confirmed that the government would invest $250 million in the programs, which also gained National Road Transport Association (NatRoad) approval.

Australian Trucking Association (ATA) chair David Smith observed that the announcement would result in more rest areas and better road access for safer and more productive trucks.

“Truck drivers need rest areas so they can take safety breaks and meet their compliance obligations. But there just aren’t enough rest areas on the road system,” Smith said.

“As far as the trucking industry is concerned, every new rest area on the roads is a win.”

The ATA sees upgrading bridges

allowing the industry to use more modern truck configurations, which would result in lower costs, fewer truck movements and improved safety.

“For example, you need 42 standard semitrailer trips to deliver 1,000 tonnes of freight,” Smith said.

“If the road and bridges are upgraded to handle B-doubles, you can deliver the same amount of freight in only 26 trips.”

However, the industry still wanted to see improvements to the funding guidelines.

“The rest areas funded under the heavy vehicle safety program should be required to meet the Austroads rest area guidelines,” Smith said.

“Austroads developed these guidelines in consultation with the industry.

“They set out the facilities that drivers should be able to expect at rest areas as a basic right.

“It is also essential that bridge and productivity upgrades be matched by automatic access for the appropriate class of truck.”

High productivity trucks need special

permits to operate unless they are travelling on a defined network of roads.

“When a bridge or road is upgraded under these programs, the local council should be required to add them to the defined network and not require trucking businesses to lodge expensive and time-consuming permit applications,” Smith noted.

“The Australian government has every right to insist on this as a requirement – particularly since it is now going to fund up to 80 per cent of the cost of upgrade projects in rural and regional areas.”

NatRoad CEO Warren Clark said the moves needed to be applied swiftly.

He said aligning the programs to operate concurrently makes sense from a planning perspective.

“Our roads and bridges are the arteries of our road freight system so continually renewing and upgrading them is essential in a country ruled by distance,” Clark said.

“Funding an upgrade strategically can make the freight task so much more efficient. The better we can assess and classify road freight routes to reflect their capabilities and weaknesses, the easier it is to make them safer and more productive.”

“Noel brings significant financial, strategic operational strengths to the role,” Bapcor chair Margie Haseltine said.

“He has an in-depth understanding of the business, our future growth strategy and the needs of our team members, and we are grateful that he can step in and ensure a seamless transition.”

The transition appears to have been accelerated as it was originally envisaged that Bapcor non-executive director Mark Powell would step in as acting CEO at the end of February.

“We are disappointed to be taking this step earlier than anticipated and thank Mr Abotomey again for his contribution to the growth of Bapcor since its IPO,” Haseltine said.

Meehan joined Bapcor as CFO on July 1, 2020 and is said to played an important role in executing the company’s financial and strategic objectives “My focus is on maintaining our strong financial position, driving our performance, executing on our existing strategic objectives and supporting the team to ensure we deliver the customer experience that we are known for,” he said.

Three T& L-related firms win at safety awards

All of the award winners

A trio of leading companies in the broad transport and logistics sector have taken out individual categories in the NSCA Foundation/GIO Workers Compensation 28th Annual National Safety Awards of Excellence.

The awards are affiliated with the National Safety Council of Australia (NSCA).

Linfox Logistics gained the Best Wellbeing Program award, while Toyota Material Handling Australia (TMHA) took out the Best Solution of a WHS Risk (Large Business) gong.

Australia Post won Best Return & Recovery at Work System category, while also appearing as a finalist in the Best Mental Health Program section Meanwhile, North Queensland Bulk Ports was a finalist in the Best Solution of a WHS Risk (Medium Business) section.

“This NSCA Best Wellbeing Program Award is a wonderful endorsement of Linfox’s commitment to safety, health and wellbeing through our Healthy Fox program,” Linfox Logistics Australia and New Zealand CEO Mark Mazurek said.

“It is also a reflection on the people who bring our ‘be safer’ message to life every day for the benefit of our team members, as part of our Leading the Way 2025 business strategy.

“I would like to acknowledge the work of our Healthy Fox team and

those who support them, including the Safety, Health and Wellbeing team, Healthy Fox site champions and mental health first aiders across our operations.”

TMHA’s award came courtesy of its forklift safety development.

“The NSCA awards recognise the efforts of organisations who actively promote a safety culture within their operations, with our winning TMHA Tyne lifter representing a lifting solution, which has eliminated manual handling risks associated with removing Tyne’s from the carriage of forklifts,” it said in a statement.

“To win this award emphasises the strength of empowerment and trust in our people, as our Annual Safety Solution Competition (Safety Tank) initiative provided a positive platform for our employees who are doing the job every day to tap into their skills and knowledge to develop innovative solutions to eliminate or significantly reduce safety risks.

“Without the courage and motivation of David Roberts (Technician, Perth) who developed the Tyne lifter as part of the competition and all other 17 submissions in our first year of safety tank, TMHA would not be celebrating such a remarkable achievement.”

Container logistics players bruised and wary Container xChange says survey results show global concern over further Covid disruption A worldwide survey published by global logistics platform Container xChange shows that 75% of the container logistics industry is rethinking its logistics strategy this year.

The survey results indicate that firms are is expecting gloomy times for this industry as it faces resurgent container shipping lines.

The top challenges remained finding spots on ships and surcharges by carriers.

One-way leasing emerged as the most sought-after alternative as compared to getting equipment from the carriers.

The xChange Industry Speak Survey 2021–22 took in some 800 container logistics players globally including shipping lines, container traders, freight forwarding companies, non vessel owning common carriers (NVOCCs), shippers and procurement companies.

The objective was to study the industry sentiment, key learnings from 2021 and the outlook for 2022 .

Key findings were: • The industry is downbeat about the supply chain performance in 2022. Out of the total respondents, 65% said that the performance will either deteriorate further (11%) or seem to remain the same (54%) in 2022 • The top challenge that the respondents experienced to conduct business was finding slots on the vessel (53%), followed by surcharges by the carriers (22%) and labour shortage (19%) • The remaining respondents (6%)

highlighted the challenge of lack of transparency and visibility of the supply chain • When asked what alternatives compared to getting equipment from carriers attracted them, 50% of respondents said they resorted to one-way leasing followed by longterm leasing contracts (28%) and buying containers (22%).

• Overall, 71% of respondents said they were rethinking their logistics strategy and they are looking for more diverse sourcing and are resorting to holding more inventory • The main causes of container shortages, according to the respondents, were – shippers using boxes as storage (42%), container line failures (28%), inefficiencies in matching box owners to potential users (28%) and longer transit times and port congestions that made container rotation slower. (The company notes that this was a multiple-choice question and hence will not add up to 100% when adding up the percentages.)

• When asked ‘who emerged as the biggest winner of the global supply chain crisis’, the industry unanimously echoed the opinion that container lines (64%) benefitted the most out of the disruptions, followed by shippers (21%) and freight forwarders (15%) • 75% of respondents said that Covid19 impacted their business. Out of these, 54% said the pandemic resulted in lower profit margins, 36% said it resulted into less transparency and 36% said they resorted to more digital solutions

during these tough times. (Again, this was a multiple-choice question).

Container xChange observed that, just when 2021 saw a slight recovery from the pandemic, the new variant made a dramatic entry and shook the industry once again.

“We foresee that Covid-19 and its new variants will continue to disrupt the port operations and labour capacity as we progress into the year 2022,” joint co-founder and CEO Christian Roeloffs said.

“Persistent unpredictability is warranted. We’ve also started to observe container prices and leasing rates going down.

“Once prices slide significantly, they risk crashing. If we look at the current demand, we see that the demand for containers hasn’t increased significantly.

“The current spike in rates is caused by a temporary supply crunch.

“But with disruptions such as labor union conflicts at US ports easing up, we’ll also see the capacity challenge improving.

“However, the ‘return to normal’ seems to be coming earlier than many of us first anticipated – and it might be as early as the second half of 2022.”

Joint co-founder and CEO Johannes Schlingmeier indicated that, along with bumper profits, this year had given container shipping lines a huge injection of pricing confidence.

“2021 was an outstanding year for the shipping industry,” Schlingmeier said.

“The staggering earnings and profits for ocean freight companies have surpassed the combined industry profits made over the whole decade.

It was also a year that showed that shippers were ‘willing’ to pay higher prices for shipping.

“Now, those earnings and profits will need to prove that this money can be put to good use to improve service levels across the industry.

“This has to go beyond the traditional levers of investing in more container capacity – but also into landside infrastructure, inland transportation and infrastructure for cross-industry collaboration to build resilience for the industry.”

News Electric vehicles could be used to pilot user-pays charging

Victorian embraces charging reform and more Victorian Infrastructure Plan backs user-pays in principle and many other freight measures In principle, Victorian government support has been given officially to user-pays road charging but there were other responses of note in the Infrastructure Victoria’s plan beyond that crucial item.

The idea suggested in the organisation’s August Victoria’s Infrastructure Strategy 2021–2051 report was to replace fixed road user charges with variable distance-based and congestion charges over the next 10 years, by gradually expanding and reforming the existing electric vehicle (EV) charge.

It would also ensure user-pays charging reflects the relative costs of road use, encouraging people to adopt beneficial travel behaviour.

The intent was supported but the state government – in its response, entitled Victorian Infrastructure Plan 2021 – which pointed to complicating aspects, including national reform to charging for vehicles above 4.5 tonnes. It also wanted to gauge the effect on government revenue.

“The government will continue to work with the Commonwealth government on heavy vehicle road reform to develop a future model that is fair for all users of the transport network while funding maintenance and development of infrastructure and services that provide the best value to Victorians,” the response stated.

“The government will continue to monitor the policy settings associated with road charges.”

A long-term advocate of uniformity

of regulations between the states and territories, the Australian Logistics Council (ALC) welcomed the decision to move towards distance based road user charging for all classes of vehicle in the state, including EVs. ALC supports the development of a national road user charging scheme that is coordinated through National Cabinet, with EV charging to be used as the pilot.

As recognised by Infrastructure Victoria in its August 2021 report, all road users, regardless of their vehicle type, need to pay road user charges necessary to constructing and maintaining, it added.

“Electric vehicles are a good starting point for road-user reform,” ALC CEO Brad Williams said.

“We need to capitalise on the learnings from the Victorian approach and develop principles that can be applied to road pricing across the country.

“We can use the findings to inform the heavy vehicle road reform process, particularly how telematics and GPS data, already captured by the freight and logistics operators, can be used to determine distances travelled.

“It is time for change but it’s worth remembering the current system has worked well to date because it is nationally consistent, meaning that national supply chain organisations can optimise their operations efficiently and keep costs lower for consumers.”

Meanwhile, also supported in principle was transitioning government fleet and freight vehicles to zero-emissions technologies within the next five years; requiring all new government fleet vehicles to be zero-emissions vehicles (ZEVs) where available.

This would be through incentivising uptake of zeroemissions freight vehicles through reviewing restrictions on zeroemissions freight movements on freight routes.

“There are many reasons for restrictions on freight vehicle movements including safety, amenity, noise, emissions, mass and size,” the government responded.

“While ZEV freight vehicles will not mitigate the full range of issues for which restrictions are imposed, the government may consider how it might be suitable to exempt ZEV freight vehicles from certain restrictions on freight routes on a case-by-case basis. Any potential changes would receive appropriate community and industry consultation.”

Though still somewhat over the horizon, in principle support was also given to a next-year start on updating transport regulations to allow automated vehicle operation on the road network over 10 years.

Other items gaining in-principle support included: • optimising capacity at the Port of Melbourne • acting now to protect the future Bay West Port option • delivering a new intermodal freight terminal for Inland Rail, with the government’s preference being for it to be in Truganina in Melbourne’s west • constructing an outer metro road and rail corridor, over 30 years , including a freight rail link to coincide with the opening of the Western Intermodal Freight Terminal.

Not supported was the appointment of an independent body to advise on and monitor transport prices over the next 30 years.

The National Road Transport Association (NatRoad) has advocated

for this sort of oversight in most states, to keep watch on tolls roads and an their increasing cost to use.

However, the state government felt current legislation and procedures provide sufficient scope to review and set transport pricing to ensure positive community outcomes.

Nor did it support congestionbased peak and off-peak tolling to all new metropolitan freeways, including the North East Link, to better manage traffic flow and impacts on nearby local roads.

This was seen as running against government policy.

“Each new tolling project in Victoria currently requires its own project-specific legislation to establish a legal basis to

facilitate the operation and tolling powers involved in the project,” it pointed out.

“These tolls are set at rates that aim to achieve balance for a number of movement, revenue and contractual objectives. The North East Link motorway will be tolled, but rates have not yet been set.

“This legislative requirement means that significant lead time is required for each new tolling project to ensure that it has the required rights and powers to charge tolls and enforce their collection.”

Supported without quibble was progressively introducing, over five years, road network demandmanagement technologies across the state and integrating management systems for different

road-based transport modes.

They would be combined with a road infrastructure upgrade program to optimise the benefits of technologies, such as by providing extra clearways and introducing dedicated lanes for bus routes.

“The government supports this recommendation and is making a significant investment through its Smarter Roads program and other initiatives,” it stated.

“Smarter Roads is a technologybased investment to unlock system-wide benefits through implementation of monitoring, management and technology upgrades focused on improving the movement of passenger and freight vehicles, reducing congestion and journey times and improving productivity.”

level of 0.084%. Monoacetylmorphine was detected in vitreous humour, indicating heroin use within the previous 24 hours.”

WA Police Major Crash Investigation Section had found no faults or defects in the truck or trailers.

“There was no evidence of any obvious braking at the crash scene, which was consistent with [the driver] having fallen asleep whilst driving due to fatigue and the effects of the drugs and alcohol in his system, or having suffered a medical episode that prevented him from controlling the truck and braking,” the coroner continued.

“No other likely causal factors were identified in the investigation.”

The AFCA noted that policy excluded cover for losses caused by criminal act and, therefore, it was open to Chubb to refuse both claims. However, it paid for the co-driver ‘on a good faith, nonprecedent basis’.

Despite the policy exclusion stating that benefits would not be paid if any criminal act committed by “an insured person” was involved, the company had complained that the claim for the driver should have been accepted it “had no knowledge of driver’s personal activities and cannot be held responsible for drivers’ activities whilst on the road”.

This was rejected and ACFS ruled that the outcome was “fair under the circumstances”.

ACFA backs Chubb payout denial over driver Insurer had rejected company argument on ignorance of drug use A trucking company whose driver died with a mix of drugs and alcohol in his system has failed in an approach to Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA) over a rejected claim.

The federal watchdog’s determination does not name the company, which had made its complaint via a broker against Chubb Insurance Australia.

The claim stemmed from a fatal 2019 prime mover crash in Western Australia, with policy providing cover of $250,000 for accidental death.

Though Chubb had paid out for the codriver, who was also killed, it refused to do so for the deceased driver.

The coroner’s finding noted that: ”Toxicological analysis showed multiple intoxicating agents in [the driver’s] system, including methylamphetamine and its metabolite amphetamine, buprenorphine (Suboxone), a low level of codeine and morphine and cannabis.

“There was a blood alcohol level of 0.066% and vitreous humour alcohol

Review A

Another Class Act Every now and then, a new truck comes along with the ability to surprise and impress in equal measure, and we’ve found just such a truck in Hino’s revitalised range of 700-series heavy-duty models. In fact, so surprising and so impressive was a truck-and-dog combination recently put through its paces that we’re now thinking Hino may actually have the best Japanese heavy-duty truck in the business, Steve Brooks writes As the saying goes, ‘timing is everything’ and, if that’s the case, Hino’s introduction of its vastly renewed 700-series heavy-duty range could be a classic case of just the right truck at just the right time.

Time will tell, of course, but, right now, it appears Hino is in a prime position to capitalise on a range of new models that, on one hand, etch an entirely new line in the sand for the Toyota-owned truck brand and, on the other, have the potential to exploit shortcomings in a couple of its competitive countrymen, namely Isuzu and its lately-acquired corporate collaborator, UD. For its part, and despite unbroken leadership of the overall Australian truck market for more than three decades, Isuzu Australia has been devoid of a genuinely competitive heavy-duty prime mover or higher horsepower rigid model and, for almost as many years, the company

has been anxious to fill the void.

Of course, its lacklustre Giga heavyweight was available until recently, when it was withdrawn from the market, but it was a model that largely failed to attract more than token attention and, now, further exposes a highly visible hole in Isuzu’s local stable.

Meantime, and despite Isuzu Motors’ acquisition of UD from Volvo, there’s no sign that UD, and its well-equipped Quon, will anytime soon become the saviour for Isuzu Australia’s heavy-duty hopes, particularly with the Japanese brand continuing to be sold through the Volvo Group Australia network.

What’s more, Quon’s performance peak remains limited to 460hp (343kW) from a Volvo 11-litre engine and, with no sign of the Swedish maker conceding to the introduction of its considerably more powerful 13litre displacement, UD’s current peak

is unlikely to satisfy Isuzu’s ambitions for a true heavy-duty flagship able to go toe-to-toe with the Europeans or its Japanese competitors.

Moreover, while a recent brief discussion with Isuzu Australia’s top management at least confirmed the company’s continuing dream of, one day, displacing Kenworth and Volvo at the top of the heavy-duty tree, it failed to outline any plans for the addition of a suitable contender for prime mover and heavy rigid roles.

As for the much-mentioned, and somewhat exciting, possibility of Japan’s new Giga model being developed for our market with the lively performance of a Cummins X12 engine, Isuzu’s purchase of UD has apparently seen that project shelved.

Indefinitely, it seems.

All this suggests the time couldn’t be better for Hino and, similarly, Daimler’s Fuso, to make the most of

94

5/1/2022 10:02 am

Review B

Isuzu’s vacuum and, in the process, perhaps rescind the widespread reputation of UD’s Quon as the bestequipped Japanese heavy-duty truck in the Australian market.

As already explained in previous reports, Hino’s new line in the heavyduty sand is an expanded model range equipped with exceptional levels of standard equipment.

Among many notables are a highly advanced safety package, the addition of Hino’s nine-litre engine in rigid versions to accompany the existing 13-litre plant, a powertrain pushing through fully automatic or automated manual transmissions, and a stylishly refurbished cab paying high regard to driver comfort and convenience.

By any measure, it’s a remarkably comprehensive range, not only far beyond anything Hino has previously offered in its heavy-duty stable, but equipped to be a truly potent competitor to equivalent Japanese and European models.

Our first on-road sample of the new line-up was supplied recently in a 6x2 2632 model punched by a 320hp (239kW) version of the nine-litre engine that, like its 13-litre brother, complies with Euro 6 emissions standards.

Fitted with a curtain-sided body, grossing around 18.5 tonnes and driving through a six-speed Allison automatic, a lengthy test run over diverse routes confirmed the model’s absolute suitability for shorthaul distribution roles.

However, as our report also explained, there were a couple of curious quirks with the driver monitoring system.

Quirks or not, though, we could draw only one conclusion: “There’s no denying the extraordinary advances in Hino’s new 700-series and the immense potential for a much healthier slice of the heavyduty market.

“It’s early days, and we’re still to climb behind the wheel of a truck’n-dog version, but, even so, there’s plenty to suggest Hino has a hit on its hands.”

A ‘hit’ indeed, with no greater example than the recent performance and manners delivered by an FS2848 six-wheeler tipper coupled to a three-axle dog trailer.

Sure, after a demanding 250km route from Hino HQ in southern Sydney down to industrial Wollongong, up the long Mt Ousley climb and across to Mittagong in the Southern Highlands, before returning through suburban Sydney, there were a few things about the truck that, in our estimation, could further enhance the model’s significant appeal.

We’ll get to those ‘things’ shortly but, overall, this version of Hino’s reborn heavy-duty range was nothing less than a model of superb road manners and adroit operational ability, quickly generating the thought that this particular unit is possibly the best Japanese truck this commentator has ever driven.

A One of Hino’s revitalised range of 700-series heavy-duty models

B Classy interior. Hino sets a new standard for the interior design and finish of Japanese trucks

Externally, 13-litre models, such as the FS2848, are distinguished from their nine-litre siblings by four (rather than three) chrome grille slats but, of course, it’s from behind the wheel where the true character of the truck – and this truck in particular – becomes most apparent.

Smart specs Other than the extra slat in the grille of 13-litre versions, the greatly upgraded cab is common to all 700series models and, as previously reported: “Hino has ignored sceptics who suggested that its modern contemporary cab trim – first revealed at the 2019 launch of the standard cab 500-series range – was perhaps a touch too flash.”

From any angle, though, it is an attractive, stylish and highly functional layout.

Again referring to our previous report: “Mounted on a four-point air suspension arrangement, the impressively refashioned cab stands reasonably tall but well-placed grab handles and wide non-slip steps make it an easy climb to a spacious, comfortable interior.

“The driver sits on a quality

Review C

Isri high-back seat with ample adjustment aided by generous tilt and telescopic steering wheel increments. It would, in fact, be an odd-bod that couldn’t find an agreeable driving position in the new Hino.”

What’s more, there’s plenty to like with the new dash design.

As Hino rightly states: “The ergonomically designed wraparound dash features allnew instrumentation with large, high contrast speedometer and tachometer, and a central multiinformation display, which contains important details such as SmartSafe settings, driving economy, gear selection and vehicle maintenance data.”

And, of course, there’s a high quality multi-media unit for the radio and all the technical titbits, such as Bluetooth and reversing camera.

“Additionally, control buttons on the steering wheel offer fingertip ease for phone calls and adaptive cruise control settings, while column-mounted stalks are provided

D

for the engine brake [and retarder], wipers/washers, lights and the like.

“Indeed, given the high standards of comfort and operational ease in an environment of modern and functional quality, it wouldn’t surprise if the great majority of drivers consider the interior of the new Hino a cut above other Japanese contenders in an equivalent class.

It’s simply a convenient, comfortable and altogether classier place to work.”

Equally, the standard ‘SmartSafe’ safety package is shared across all 700-series models, featuring the modern and increasinglyaccepted advances of autonomous emergency braking, pedestrian detection and ‘safety eye’ functions, a driver awareness monitoring system, vehicle stability control, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control and an electronic braking system.

Not quite so advanced, but definitely worthwhile in any safety suite, are LED headlights and daytime running lamps, and reversing camera.

Fortunately, though, some of the driver monitoring functions in the 13-litre test truck weren’t as overly active, with unwarranted warnings about driver awareness or heavy acceleration, as they had been in the nine-litre rigid model.

There is, however, another major safety asset in the form of a Jacobs engine brake on nine-litre models and, on 13-litre versions, the combination of a Jake brake with ZF’s multi-stage Intarder hydraulic retarder.

In the FS2848 truck-and-dog, the effectiveness of the retardation system was absolutely brilliant.

Yet, as we’ve expressed before, given all the advanced safety features in the new range, it was somewhat surprising Hino didn’t adopt disc brakes.

Still, company insiders are adamant the move from a traditional S-cam design to Hino’s ‘Taper Roller’ brake system not only provides significant gains in tare weight but delivers smoother and more consistent brake feel. And, in our

C One of very few negatives, the driver’s side mirror encroaches on vision at roundabouts and the like

D It’s a reasonably lofty climb into the smartly restyled cab but it’s at least made easy by well-placed steps and grab rails

E While nine-litre models use a threeslat grille, a four-slat face defines a 13-litre engine under the greatly upgraded cab. However, Hino’s decision to keep its 13-litre lump at a maximum of 480hp is surprising and somewhat disappointing

test run, there was certainly nothing to complain about the progressive and potent braking performance of the new Hino.

The biggest surprise of all, however, was Hino’s decision to retain peak power of the 700’s reliable 13-litre engine at the existing peak of 480hp, despite being fully aware of Fuso’s planned addition of a 13-litre 510hp (380kW) model to its heavy-duty Shogun range.

From any angle, it appears a strange decision, particularly in a power-conscious market such as Australia, and even more particularly because Hino has a 500-plus version of its 13-litre engine already available in Japan.

Even so, Hino has done a superb job of tailoring an ideal powertrain to its 13-litre common rail engine’s performance peaks of 480hp (353kW) at 1,600 to 1,800rpm and

2,157Nm (1,590lb-ft) of torque from 1,000 to 1,500rpm.

In fact, with peak power and top torque on tap across a broad rev range, engine performance can feel decidedly brisk in suburban traffic streams as it feeds through the exceptionally slick steps and intuitive smarts of ZF’s supersmooth 16-speed Traxon automated transmission, operated through a simple rotary knob on the left side of the dash.

On undulating country roads, though, there were also occasions when performance could feel decidedly ‘doughy’. Again, it’s hard to understand Hino’s apparent reluctance to crack 500hp (373kW) when there are so many advances in other areas.

Driving through an overdrive (0.821:1) top gear into a 3.9:1 rear axle ratio, 100km/h is notched on top

of the torque band at a twitch over 1,500rpm, with the truck running on polished Alcoa wheels fitted with 295/80R22.5 tyres on the steer and 11R22.5 on the drive.

While the front end rides on taper leaf spring packs, Hino offers the choice of a Hendrickson airbag rear suspension or the Japanese maker’s own six-rod assembly on the FS2848 and wisely, perhaps, chose the latter for a truck and three-axle dog combination fitted with Hardox steel tipper bodies from Chris’s Body Builders in Melbourne.

It’s also worth noting the FS sixwheeler is available with wheelbases of 4.2, 4.5 and 6.3 metres, the latter obviously for long rigid bodies and the shorter two largely for tipper and prime mover applications.

Ups and downs Among very few disappointments with the test unit was that gross weight was on the shy side at 38.5 tonnes rather than at full weight of 45 tonnes or thereabouts. If nothing else, a higher weight would have given the exercise more real world cred.

After all, the FS2848 is rated for gross weights up to 63 tonnes.

Nonetheless, there’s no denying the fundamental qualities of Hino’s top toiler and, from the outset, superb handling and road manners combined with an intuitively adept drivetrain to quickly forge a confident and highly positive opinion of the model’s many attributes, including one of the modern world’s best inventions for heavy trucks – hill hold!

Review Handling and road manners of the FS2848 truck and dog combination were exceptionally good, as was ZF’s brilliant Traxon transmission

and sweet shifts of the Traxon transmission, lift-offs from a standing start at steep intersections were totally stress-free and, around town in tight traffic, it was simply a supremely comfortable, quiet, smooth and altogether easy combination to operate.

Yet, just as its 6x2 sibling revealed in our earlier test, the wide mirror housing on the driver’s door considerably impedes right-side vision at roundabouts and the like.

Hino isn’t alone in this design flaw but it’s certainly something that needs to be addressed.

However, as the demands changed to rolling hills on the run south to Wollongong, the combined attributes of adaptive cruise control and the retardation of a Jake brake working in concert with the formidable strength of a three-stage ZF Intarder were brilliantly capable of keeping road speed firmly under control.

There are a couple of deceptively steep grades on the run to Wollongong but so effective was the retardation effort that even slight touches on the service brakes were rarely required.

Of course, the most demanding descent of all is the long drop down Mt Ousley where a 40km/h truck speed limit is strictly enforced, yet keeping the Hino restrained was as simple as swapping between 9th and 11th gear, and moving the retarder wand through its various stages as the different grades

and traffic flow demanded. Easy!

On the uphill run, the steepest pinch saw the Traxon transmission drop to 9th gear and, after that, migrating seamlessly through higher gears. Quite simply, this is a superb transmission that makes the most of the 13-litre engine’s relatively modest but altogether honest outputs.

At this point, though, it’s worth mentioning that throttle pressure is perhaps too soft in the final stages of travel, causing the transmission to kick down a gear or two when it’s not necessarily required.

From Mt Ousley the truck was pointed west to the Hume Freeway before the long drag up Skyline near Mittagong where, with cruise control making all the decisions, the combination dropped back to 11th gear around 1,400rpm.

Again, the seamless and perfectlytimed shifts highlighted an ideally programmed powertrain.

By this stage of a reasonably demanding run, the Hino’s onboard computer was showing an underwhelming fuel average of 1.6km/litre (4.52mpg) but, with the toughest legs behind, the trip back to Hino headquarters from Mittagong and through Sydney’s southern suburbs saw the fuel average improve considerably, finishing a testing day at 1.9km/litre, or 5.4mpg.

All things considered, it was probably a reasonable return for an engine with little more than 6,000km on the clock at the start of the exercise.

Overall, the FS2848 truck-anddog combination firmly reinforced the initial impression that Hino’s new range of 700-series heavyduty models is something special – far beyond anything the brand has ever offered before and further endorsing the belief that some Japanese makers are now entirely capable of going headto-head with their continental competitors.

Yes, it’s surprising and even disappointing that Hino didn’t push its 13-litre engine to 500hp and more, and there’s still room for improvement in things like the driver side mirror placement.

However, when the total powertrain is appraised on its collective merit, and handling, comfort, driving ease, safety and road manners are assessed as positive contributors to a remarkably smooth and effective workplace, the only conclusion is that Hino’s 700-series trucks have the features and abilities to carve a high profile and ultimately highly profitable future for the brand.

As for the suggestion that the FS2848 truck-and-dog combination supplied for this exercise is perhaps the best Japanese heavy-duty truck I’ve ever driven: Well, so far, it probably is.

Whether that’s still the case after driving Fuso’s 510hp Shogun flagship in the next couple of months … again, time will tell!

Feature A

Iveco’s change of heart Iveco Australia’s much anticipated announcement that it will move to full importation of its heavy-duty truck range is set to close the curtain on Australia’s oldest truck manufacturing plant. Built by International Harvester and producing its first truck in 1952, the vast Dandenong (Vic) facility will inevitably cease operations mid-way through 2022, Steve Brooks reports Right now, Australia has three truck manufacturing plants. Soon, there will be two.

Mid-way through 2022, the sprawling Dandenong (Vic) production facility built in 1952

by International Harvester as a safeguard against reliance on overseas suppliers during Australia’s post-war construction boom, will build no more.

In its long history, the factory has produced almost quarter of a million trucks, or more than three times the current number of trucks built by either Paccar Australia’s Bayswater (Vic) facility or Volvo Group Australia’s Wacol (Qld) plant.

However, after a long and stellar performance during the halcyon years of International Harvester, the factory and its thousands of employees have also endured many challenging times.

In 1992, for instance, with International Harvester suffering dire economic distress, the brand’s Australian operation and its Dandenong production facility were rescued from economic oblivion by European conglomerate Iveco.

But now, 30 years on, the Dandenong plant’s history as a truck builder is about to be closed by what Iveco Australia cites as ”a global transformation process”.

News of the facility’s ultimate demise after 70 years as a local manufacturer came in a recent

and carefully crafted press release announcing Iveco Australia’s “development of the Customisation & Innovation Centre (CIC) and related changes that will impact its Australian manufacturing arm”.

From the end of June 2022, Iveco’s heavy-duty models will be fully imported from a manufacturing facility in Madrid, Spain.

Speculation has been rife for several years that Iveco Australia’s increasingly poor heavy-duty sales volumes – dropping to less than three per cent of the heavy-duty sector despite a booming 2021 market – and its earlier decision to fully import medium-duty models in addition to its light-duty line-up, would inevitably sound the death knell for the huge Dandenong facility’s viability as a truck production factory.

What’s more, the plant sits on a vast expanse of land in a major development area of south-eastern Melbourne, leading to further speculation that the site’s worth as a manufacturing asset is massively outweighed by its real estate value.

Even so, the managing director of Iveco Australia and New Zealand, Michael May, would not be drawn on details regarding the plant’s future.

May was appointed to the managing director’s role at Iveco Australia in February 2020 after a successful 20-year career with Daimler Trucks Australia, eventually

becoming the head of MercedesBenz truck operations.

An erudite and carefully considered corporate executive, his move to Iveco was a surprise for many people, not least because of the company’s negative reputation as a merry-go-round of short-lived executive appointments led by a seemingly endless stream of mediocre managing directors.

It was, however, a convincing May who forecast a progressive new era for the brand when interviewed six months after taking the reins at Iveco.

Still, an intensely cautious and typically corporate response emerged when asked if his ultimate task was to wind down manufacturing and assembly at the historic Dandenong factory, cash in on the sprawling facility’s massive land value, and become a full importer.

“We have opportunities to evolve provided we can bring adaptability and flexibility to the market and what it requires,” he answered earnestly, before adding: “The door’s open for a number of possibilities but all things will be pragmatically assessed and evaluated. It will take time.”

Predictably, perhaps, he would not discuss what those possibilities might be and nowadays his role is simply described as bringing “a renewed focus to our onhighway business”.

Ye,t when May was recently asked

by email if the formation of CIC means that the Dandenong facility, or part thereof, will be surplus to requirements and ultimately sold, a response arrived from Ella Letiagina, Iveco Australia’s head of network, product and marketing.

“We have focused first on our staff with the early notification so as to create a smooth transition as we develop CIC,” she stated.

“This evolution will enable us to better assess facility requirements.”

Likewise, when asked how many jobs are expected to be lost in the transition to CIC, her statement indicated that details are still being determined.

“We currently have 300 Iveco staff in our region ANZ [Australia and New Zealand]. As we develop more detail on the needs of our future business model we will be in a position to better estimate the impact,” she said.

Obviously enough, the company and its executives are far more forthcoming on the formation and suggested benefits of the CIC, describing it as “a business unit that will further leverage Iveco’s local engineering and manufacturing expertise, transforming the company’s focus towards the customisation and innovation of its vehicles for local markets”.

Moreover, a company statement enthuses: “The CIC is being developed to better assist Iveco customers and body-builders – particularly those with complex body types – to achieve a more streamlined design and body fitment process for their vehicles.”

And, Iveco will be “placed to work more closely with Europe and local partners to explore areas such as alternative propulsion solutions, digitisation, connectivity and autonomous driving”.

Drawing on the Dandenong facility’s history will be a critical benefit for the CIC initiative, May states in Iveco’s press release.

“Historically, our most unique value proposition has been our ability to customise and specialise vehicles for our market, leveraging

C

the expertise of our local engineering team and the local facility,” he said.

But just how much of that local engineering team and local facility will still be in place after the end of June this year remains to be seen.

So, too, does it remain to be seen if the creation of CIC will transform Iveco’s flagging heavy and mediumduty fortunes in our part of the world.

Whatever, and despite the apparent inevitability of its demise, the end of the Dandenong plant’s 70 years of truck manufacturing marks the despairing departure of yet another true icon of Australian manufacturing.

Australia Post puts first eCanters into delivery operations Full complement set to number 37 for nation’s biggest e-truck fleet Australia Post has welcomed the first of 20 electric trucks to its national delivery fleet, with three Fuso eCanters delivering parcels to customers in Melbourne ahead of Christmas.

And the federal governmentowned enterprise is looking forward to adding 17 more this year The eCanters add to Australia Post’s existing electric delivery fleet of more than 2,100 electric delivery vehicles and 1,400 electric bicycles and follows the successful trial of the Daimler-developed truck in late 2019.

Australia Post general manager networks James Dixon said the addition of the eCanters to Australia Post’s delivery fleet was an exciting step for the organisation.

“We’re very proud to be Australia’s largest electric fleet operator, but up until this point our electric fleet has consisted solely of smaller delivery

vehicles that are used for the lastmile,” Dixon said.

“We’ve trialled a range of electric trucks previously, but the Fuso eCanter is the first we’ve found that suits both Australian conditions and our unique operational needs.”

The remaining 17 eCanters will hit the streets delivering in major capital cities from early 2022, with the rollout of the new vehicles supported by Australia Post fleet-management provider SG Fleet.

Daimler Truck and Bus Australia Pacific president and CEO Daniel Whitehead nominated Australia Post as the perfect first Australian customer for the eCanter.

“Daimler is thrilled to partner with such an iconic brand as Australia Post on a journey towards carbon neutral freight transportation in Australia,” Whitehead said.

Australia Post chief sustainability officer Susan Mizrahi noted that

expanding the current electric fleet was a crucial part of the Australia Post’s 2020–22 corporate responsibility plan and its sciencebased target to reduce emission by 15 per cent by 2025.

“This is an important milestone for our business,” Mizrahi said.

“We know that every delivery has a carbon footprint, which is why we’re committed to reducing our emissions through growing our electric fleet and increasing our renewable energy production to help power these new vehicles.”

Australia Post is committed to reducing scope 1, 2 and 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 15 per cent by FY2025 (from a FY2019 baseline), aligned with a well-below 2°C pathway.

Any emissions generated by the electricity usage from the Fuso eCanter will be offset through the purchase of renewable energy certificates, it said.

News A Cummins-powered fuel cell truck at the West Sacramento facility

Cummins bolsters hydrogen propulsion New California facility to focus on proton-exchange membrane tech Engine-maker Cummins has opened its Hydrogen Fuel Cell Powertrain Integration Center in West Sacramento, California.

The move signals its commitment to scaling the green hydrogen economy in the United States the company said.

The facility aims to aid the development of its ‘protonexchange membrane’ (PEM) fuel cell technology.

“Our presence in West Sacramento is important to advancing hydrogen technologies while being a central part of the decarbonisation conversation in the United States,” Cummins vice president and president of its New Power arm Amy Davis said.

“With the most advanced hydrogen infrastructure system in the country, California provides a great ecosystem for advancing alternative power technologies.

“Ultimately, our goal is to accelerate change in transportation, innovate for our customers and put more zeroemissions vehicles on the road. This facility will help us do exactly that.”

Cummins is investing in two types of hydrogen fuel cells: PEM fuel cells and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs).

At the West Sacramento facility, the focus is PEM fuel cells, which are considered a good solution

for high-power transportation applications, like heavy-duty, long-haul trucks.

When the hydrogen used to fuel a fuel cell vehicle is green, meaning it is produced using renewable electricity, the result is zero-carbon transportation.

“We’re investing heavily in alternative power solutions, particularly hydrogen fuel cells, batteries and electric drivetrains,” Cummins vice president of fuel cell and hydrogen technologies Amy Adams said.

“We have unique expertise and talent to bring these together and put trucks in our customers’ hands today.”

The new 1,672 square metre Cummins site is designed specifically for hydrogen innovation, including safety features, and will house fuel cell integration and fuel cell powertrain development and testing, controls and electrical engineering.

Cummins will be the largest tenant at the California Fuel Cell Partnership facility, which is occupied by other alternative power innovators and technology companies.

Despite doubts being expressed on the long-term viability of hydrogen fuel cell propulsion in the face of advances in battery electric power, Cummins appears in no doubt.

Recently, it hosted a ‘Hydrogen

Day’, where it spruiked its technical expertise and the manufacturing and customer support capabilities to successfully bring to market a range of hydrogen-related products at a scale for widespread adoption.

“Hydrogen technologies, particularly electrolysers, will be a fast-growing and increasingly important part of our business over the next few years,” Cummins chairman and CEO Tom Linebarger said at the virtual event, which was said to have drawn a registered audience of more than 3,000 analysts, media members, environmental advocates and others.

“As momentum increases worldwide for the use of hydrogen solutions, we will continue to leverage our industry-leading hydrogen technologies, our deep customer relationships and our extensive service network to enable adoption.”

Not that the company is ignoring battery electric.

“Cummins has a long history of advanced technology and engineering capabilities, and a broad portfolio of market-leading renewable hydrogen and battery electric technologies,” it said.

“To date, Cummins has deployed more than 2,000 fuel cells, 600 electrolysers and 400 battery electric powertrains globally.”

Europcar in massive local Iveco Daily order Some 336 vans on order or being delivered before June It may be a momentous time for Iveco’s truckmaking future in Australia but the make’s vans arm is kicking huge goals with Europcar.

The vehicle rental business is about to digest a 195-unit order comprising of 150 vans and 45 pantech-bodied cab chassis units, while 241 are also on order and due to enter service in Australia in the first half of next year.

The attraction of Daily 35S van models to Europcar is that can be driven on a passenger car licence and offer generous load-carrying ability, while remaining easy-to-drive and manoeuvrable for drivers of all levels of experience, Iveco noted.

Further assisting the vans’ ease of use is Iveco’s eight-speed fully automatic transmission, which is matched to a new 2.3L 136hp (101kW), 350Nm, Euro 6-rated turbodiesel engine, delivering ample power combined with enhanced emission performance and fuel efficiency.

The cab chassis models (45C) can also be driven on a car licence and are equipped with a larger three-litre

Euro 6-rated turbodiesel engine, which produces 180hp (134kW) and 430Nm. These light trucks feature a Pantech body and rear tail lifter, allowing for easy loading and unloading.

The models offer a full suite of standard safety equipment that includes four SRS airbags, advanced emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, front and rear disc brakes with an antilock braking system and ‘ESP 9’ – Iveco’s advanced electronic stability program.

Europcar commercial director Jonathan Dexter highlighted the importance of safety in its offering.

“The Daily range provides an impressive overall safety package and fits well with our brand’s position in the market as a company that operates a modern, safe and reliable fleet,” Dexter said.

“We’re also mindful that many of our customers are not full-time drivers of commercial vehicles, so providing them with vans and light trucks that are easy to use, while still having a large payload is important.

“Certainly, the customer feedback on the Dailys continues to be very positive nationally – customers enjoy the functionality of the vehicles as well as their sleek European design, it’s a strong point of difference for us compared to other rental fleets.

“The Daily is also a standout performer when it comes to emission performance, and again this aligns well with our corporate sustainability goals.”

Europcar’s purchases are due to both an increased demand for commercial vehicle rentals as well as the company’s fleet rejuvenation program, which sees the company rotate its commercial vehicle fleet every 36 months on average.

Dexter noted that Europcar had experienced strong demand in recent months.

“In the business-to-business space, we’ve seen growth in the transport and logistics sector on the back of demand increasing for home deliveries, including directly from retailers pivoting to delivery models,” he said.

Two dreams have come true for Rasdeep Singh Bajwa, the owner of Flying Horse Transport – relocating with his family to Australia and eventually becoming the proud owner of a spruced-up brilliant orange 2019 Kenworth T909. Not only has this colourful unit’s exterior been enhanced, the interior is simply luxurious 109

I With a custom-built floor and completely overhauled seats and dash, the Kenworth is a one-of-a-kind

n a country dominated by cricket, rugby league and cross-country netball (or Aussie Rules), it’s almost sacrilegious that I start this story with a quote from one of the all-time greatest real footy (soccer) players, Pelé. I’m not saying there’s probably no good lines from Ricky Ponting or Jonathon Thurston or some AFL player that I don’t know. It’s just that Pelé, in one quote, managed to sum up completely the journey to success of Flying Horse Transport and, in particular, the man behind the bright orange truck you see before you: “Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and, most of all, love of what you are doing.”

That one quote sums up Rasdeep Singh Bajwa, who is better known as Rusty and is the man behind Flying Horse Transport.

I best clarify something here. Bajwa is the driving force behind Flying Horse Transport’s amazing orange T909. Notice how I was very specific? That’s because Bajwa is the first to point out the success of the company itself is down to so many other people, not just him. He made it abundantly clear he is

merely one of the several successful pillars of the company.

Bajwa was not even trying to earn brownie points when he dobs in his wife, Rajbir Kaur, as the major force behind his success.

“She is the main person in this. She stands with me in all my ups and downs,” Bajwa said.

So, how did this young Indian family man with a lifetime passion for trucks end up here, with arguably one of the most custom, colourful Kenworths in Australia? Allow me to elaborate.

Bajwa was born and raised in Punjab in the northern part of India. Punjab is a state of around 50,000 square kilometres with a population of around 27 million. Just to put that into perspective, that would be like the population of Australia, around 25 million people, all camping in Tasmania, which has a land mass of around 65,000 square kilometres. Think about that. Imagine how frustrating the grey nomads would be on those roads.

But, back to Bajwa. Like so many of us truck nuts, he grew up with diesel in his veins.

“I was crazy for trucks, ever since I was a kid,” he admitted.

“My uncle had about 50 trucks, mainly rigids to start with, then eventually into semis.”

The main workhorse of his uncle’s fleet was the legendary Tata.

“Tata is the top-of-the-line in India; like Kenworth is to Australia, Tata is over there,” Bajwa explained. It’s worth pointing out that the company behind Tata also owns Jaguar and Land Rover.

“When the trucks would come to my village I would jump in for a ride,” smiled Bajwa.

His huge grin is one we can all relate to – I remember doing the same thing when my uncle would pass through town in his truck.

Bajwa’s passion for trucks grew tenfold when access to the internet allowed him to literally view a world of trucks. His voice resorts to that of an excited kid as he recalls seeing the big Canadian rigs for the first time.

I could easily relate – memories of seeing my first road train was the metaphorical fuel on my truck passion fire.

Hard study Bajwa came to Australia with his family in 2007. Having grown up working on farms, the skills he learnt in India saw him easily employed in the same area here.

After getting settled, he took the opportunity to begin studying. When I listen to Bajwa recall his early years in Australia, it definitely makes me feel a little unmotivated.

Lazy might be more appropriate for me but unmotivated sounds more professional. For while my early 20s were spent enjoying my fair share of alcohol- induced celebrations (mine and probably yours actually), Bajwa was busy working and studying.

He studied automotive engineering for a couple years, followed by a business management diploma. All this while working as a taxi driver for another of his uncles.

However, with all this on his schedule, Bajwa never lost his passion for trucks and, as soon as he got his HR licence, he found local work and his trucking career began.

Just like all the Flying Horse trucks, Bajwa ensures the drivers have all the creature comforts. His truck is just a little more colourful

Orange nine-0 My dream was an

with a single trailer

This Kenworth would seriously rival some of America's custom-built show trucks, especially inside

By now it was 2010. Bajwa was 22 and he stepped into a local body truck for Total Logistics Solutions (TLS) in Melbourne. Not only was the job a step into the industry he loved but it would give him the nickname that would stay with him to this day.

“I was an HR driver at TLS. I remember Adam, the local dispatcher there. I’d spell my name Rasdeep and he said ‘Rusty?’ I said, ‘Yeah, just call me Rusty’,” he laughingly told me. From there, it just stuck.

Bajwa spent a couple of years driving heavy rigids, eventually progressing through the ranks and doing a year or so on the semis before moving onto B-doubles.

His apprenticeship over the years saw him experience every aspect of the industry – freezer work, pallet work, flattops, multi-drops, local, interstate … you name it, he had a go.

“When I got into the semis I was introduced to the Roadranger ’boxes, mainly with Kenworths,” Bajwa recalled. It was those Kenworth experiences that seeded the inspiration for owning his own T909.

However, that idea never really took off until 2014.

“My dream was an Orange nine-0 with a single trailer,” he added. Lucky for him, he has not just a supportive but also very smart wife in Rajbir.

“She said to me: ‘OK, if that’s what you

want, how about you start with a rigid?’”

That’s exactly what Bajwa did. He bought a little rigid truck; operating it himself for all of three months. It seems, when you are crazy for trucks and have been driving all the big gear, it is very hard to go backwards.

Bajwa put a driver in the rigid and found himself buying his first semi, a cab-over Freightliner.

“I still sit down sometimes and ask myself why I did that,” Bajwa jokingly told me. He admitted he did not have a lot of luck with that truck and, less than a year later, he sold it and went back on the road as a company driver.

Volvo detour Right about here I’d like to flip back to that quote right at the start. The truth is, I simply wanted to highlight the “hard work, perseverance, learning” part of it. Bajwa’s selfadmission that he’s “crazy for trucks” meant his dream of owning his own trucks never died and owning his flagship Kenworth was as strong as ever. He still had his rigid and had in fact been asked by the company he was contracted to if he could put on another rigid.

While all this was going on Bajwa was back on the road, driving semis as a company driver.

After a couple of years, another friend, Amrit, one of the men behind Auswide Transport Solutions, offered him some

It took a fair bit of convincing to get Bajwa to pose in front of his T909. Not because he wasn’t proud of the truck he’s worked decades to earn, but because he hadn’t brought his matching turban. He’s well known for his bright orange custom headwear

Bajwa had the big T909 on a regular MelbourneBrisbane run, hooked up to his rejuvenated Vawdrey single. It’s a sight you can’t miss

tow operator work. Here was the prime opportunity to get his big nine-O9, right?

Nope, with a family to provide for, the outlay for his showpiece just wasn’t justified.

Bajwa’s business brain was firstly focused on building a successful transport business. The showpiece truck would have to wait. Instead, the first semi to re-join Flying Horse Transport in 2017 was a Volvo.

Following the purchase of the Volvo, Flying Horse Transport really took off (pun absolutely intended). In case you are wondering where the company name originates, well, there are a couple of really cool parts to that.

Firstly, back in India, the term ‘horse’ is a slang for a tractor unit. Secondly, in another example of Bajwa’s trucking passion, one day, long before he had his first truck and when he was driving a taxi along one of Melbourne’s motorways, he was dwarfed on either side by two B-double units doing warp factor 12.

“My passenger was a bit frightened and exclaimed that they were just flying along,” Bajwa recalled. That line formed a flying horse image and, before he even had a truck, he had his company name.

Since that first semi in 2017, the business has steadily grown. It now sits at 11 trucks, including the rigids, 13 B-double sets as well as two fulltime subcontractors. By the time Flying Horse Transport had grown to 10 trucks, it got Bajwa thinking about his childhood dream. Actually, it became more of a childhood, adolescent and Gen Y dream for Bajwa.

The attention to detail in every inch of the truck is a testament to the team at Thorpe’s Custom Trucks. A fantastic finish

You can admire the rear end for days. If you’re wondering about the plate though, it goes back to another of Bajwa’s loves – tractors. All the Flying Horse plates are tractor models

One of my favourite modifications is the single piece handrail-mirror arm. Not sure if it’s a Bajwa choice or a Thorpe’s but it looks outstanding

Another Thorpe’s addition to the Kenworth was this stunning mural on the bonnet, by the artist known as ‘H’

“When I got the 10 trucks and I saw the 10 were there to feed my family and to feed the rest I would get the 909 and get it special,” Bajwa said. And so it began.

Ever since the first Flying Horse Volvo, Bajwa has always pimped his trucks out.

With his passion for the industry and his love of trucks it was always just a given. All his trucks have added bling, extra lights and more shine than any factory-built truck.

He also equips out the interior as well, to allow his drivers to have all the creature comforts – souped up stereos, microwaves, television, fridges … all that stuff is included to make his drivers comfortable.

“Everything has changed, my work is depending on them. They have to eat well, eat healthy, be rested,” Bajwa explained.

The trucks’ setup also goes as far as extra training in load restraint and fatigue

management when he brings on new drivers.

His emphasis on skilled and informed drivers pairs up well with the top-of-the-line gear he gives them to pilot.

With that much effort put into the fleet trucks and drivers, it was a given that the flagship was always going to be something really special.

Orange image Bajwa’s long-time vision had been a bright orange T909. The choice of Kenworth was a given for Bajwa. With several already in his fleet, their worth had already been proven.

Matched with the iconic aura that hangs over the T909 mantle, it’s about as obvious a choice as it would be picking Stephen Hawking for you pub quiz team.

Nick Gesovski, Bajwa’s local Kenworth salesman, was used to doing up a T909 quote

118

for him. Bajwa had bought several Kenworths already and, each time he would also get a quote from Gesovski for the 909. But it would always result in Bajwa shaking his head and having a little mumble under his breath about: “Ah, it’s too expensive”.

This time, though, Gesovski received no shake of the head, no reluctant mumbling.

In fact, on Bajwa’s birthday, he was given the go-ahead by his finance manager and called Gesovski to say: “Let’s do it!”

The choice of colour for the 2019 model is another reflection of Bajwa’s deep appreciation for his culture.

“I love my culture, I love the Aussie culture, I love trucks,” he said.

The Kenworth supplied the Aussie culture and Bajwa’s Indian culture was covered with the colour choice. Orange is the most dominant colour of all in India; in the Indian

flag it stands for courage and sacrifice. The vibrant orange paintjob was performed inhouse at Paccar’s Bayswater facility. From there, the standard T909 was sent off for a four-month makeover at the home of cool – Thorpe Custom Trucks.

“Leon Thorpe and Lee Thorpe, they helped me a lot,” Bajwa said.

“They see the craziness in me – Leon is a crazy guy himself with the trucks.”

With a bit of influence from the Thorpe boys, Bajwa had a pretty good Idea of what he wanted to do and what he wanted to add. First and foremost was a crazy sound system.

The truck has been pumped up with amps and subwoofers and could happily entertain a small- to medium-sized music festival. The interior is far from original, starting with the seats, which were removed and sent away for customisation. The aluminium floor was

The Kenworth may be the flagship but Bajwa has a soft spot for the Western Star badge as well. One of the company's many Stars tries to hold its own against the big orange 909

fitted and orange effects added to everything from the dash to the cabinetry.

Exterior-wise, I’d love to list it all, but it would turn this into a three-day read. Twin stacks were mounted to the truck even though the actual exhaust still runs underneath. If you spotted how clean the inside of the monster stacks are, that’s the reason.

Thorpe Custom Trucks built a one-piece grab handle-mirror arm setup that looks amazing cool. Honestly, from front to back there is so much customisation, you really need to spend a bit of time looking at the images just to appreciate the work and creativity that has gone into this truck.

It didn’t leave Thorpe’s workshop fully finished, though. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t half-done either but actually a plan by Bajwa. Right from the start there was a long list of extra additions and alterations he was planning on making.

“I wanted to have other little things I could add, cause then it feels like a new truck every time I do something different,” he added.

It works, too. Every time I get the pleasure of catching up with him there’s something new for him to show me. Which makes me feel like I should be shooting the truck again … and again.

While the big Kenworth was getting its makeup put on, Bajwa had Justin and the team at Vawdrey Trailers hard at work as well.

Not just matching a nice new B-double set to the Kenworth’s colour scheme – he’d also

commissioned the revamp of a second-hand Vawdrey tautliner to go behind the big girl.

Luke from Anytime Curtains played a huge role in revamping the old trailer with new curtains, lights, guards – the whole 10 yards.

The end result rolled out in early November 2019 and damn near broke the internet.

Bajwa’s lifelong dream had been reached and it was amazing. Bajwa has huge admiration for all those involved and makes sure that credit goes where credit is due. He does admit, however, that he’d rather have a gear stick the 909 but, as a fleet owner, he also knows he won’t always be in the truck so needs it to be able to be used by other drivers.

“The next one I’ll have a gearstick in, though,” Bajwa cheekily remarked, out of his lovely wife’s earshot of course.

“My passion is my profession; I love what I do,” is one of the quotes that stands out from my time with Bajwa. Ironically, it’s something he doesn’t even need to say. That passion is obvious from the state of all his trucks, to the standard he holds his employees to. He is a true truck nut, even the fact we conducted this interview on a Friday night when he was holding a barbecue for his team and helping clean the trucks just shows his passion for the industry. It is a passion that is rampant throughout Flying Horse Transport.

It’s this passion, along with the hard work, perseverance, constant learning and sacrifice that has ensured the success of Bajwa and his team. Well done guys.

The T909 might be the flagship but Bajwa and the Flying Horse Teams passion for trucks shows across the entire fleet

llawarra-based Metal Transport Industries (MTI) finds value in holding onto and maintaining its Kenworth fleet for the long-haul.

Jarrod Murada (left) caught the Kenworth bug from his father Dave

From its beginnings in 1979, MTI serviced the scrap metal industry almost exclusively for the best part of 25 years before pivoting toward the direction of heavy equipment haulage in search of increased business opportunities and profit margins.

Brothers Dave and Kev Murada are MTI’s co-managing directors. Dave gives an insight into how the business began 42 years ago.

“The old man had machinery, bulldozers and the like, and then got involved with excavators in the scrap game. It was Dad that got myself and my two brothers, Kevin and Peter, involved in the scrap metal transport game,” he explained.

Under the MTI banner, the three brothers (triplets by the way) began carting scrap metal for companies such as BHP, Metal Recyclers and Simsmetal, first with one truck then, shortly after, increasing in size to four trucks.

“In those early days, we did everything

ourselves, from organising the loads, driving along with all the maintenance and breakdown work. It was just what we had to do,” Dave said.

“It wasn’t until we got big enough to employ a mechanic that I found enough time to focus on the operations side of the business, enabling further expansion.”

Things went along nicely for the three brothers for a while until a loss of some contract work saw the fleet size reduce back to a single truck around 1984. It was at this point that brother Peter decided to pursue other interests, leaving the business to be carried on by Dave and Kev. This downsizing of fleet was only short lived, with the remaining two brothers soon sourcing new opportunities within the steel transport game.

Interstate work was soon secured carting ‘pig iron’. Pig iron, also known as crude iron, is an intermediate product of the iron industry in the production of steel, which is obtained by smelting iron ore in a blast furnace. This work would see MTI transporting the iron between Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide for many years.

It may not be environmentally friendly, but the old Kenworth looks great when it’s simply smokin’

Kenworth connection Throughout these productive years a long-standing relationship formed with the Kenworth brand.

“We have had other makes come into our fleet from time to time but other brands just don’t compare,” Dave said. During the first 10 to 15 years of the company’s operation, Kenworth W-models and K100 cab-overs would dominate the MTI fleet.

During that first 10 years, the MTI fleet size hovered around nine trucks, working on both local and interstate duties carting scrap metal in tippers.

In 1986, the company purchased its first float trailer to assist with machinery movements for their father’s business.

Unbeknownst to the brothers at the time, this type of equipment purchase would eventually provide the mainstay of MTI’s current business model.

The interstate work was continuing well and new contracts carting scrap steel from steel food can manufacturing facilities in Melbourne, Kyabram, Wodonga and

Shepparton saw MTI establish a depot in Melbourne, employing a sub-contractor to pick up the scrap and bring it into the Melbourne depot for interstate transfers back to Sydney by the company’s trucks.

This increase in workload saw the fleet size at one point total 36 trucks, but the winds of change were already starting to blow.

Annual rate increases well below minimum requirements for profitable operation and contract losses by being undercut by major companies encouraged Dave and Kev to look for alternate opportunities.

With a further breakdown in rate negotiations with prime contractors, even backed by an independent consultant being engaged during the negotiation process, additional rate increases in line with costs were not forthcoming, so MTI advised they would see out their existing contracts but would not be renewing future contracts.

As a result, 18 of the company’s scrap metal trucks were sold off to another local carrier

126

in 2007. This decision would form the catalyst of change for the company’s future direction.

As it would turn out, the timing was quite prudent indeed.

“We already had a couple floats running around and that business was increasing,” Dave said.

“Fortunately for us, it was around this time that machinery imports were transitioning from the Darling Harbour site in Sydney to Port Kembla, this was to make way for the Barangaroo development.

“We were ideally positioned to take advantage of this local development. The machinery floating business really picked up for us and, with our yard being located close to Port Kembla, we would also have other float companies call on us to move machinery off the wharf for them if they couldn’t get there within the three-day allotted window for pickup off the wharf.”

For MTI, the lion’s share of the company’s freight is now carried on the back of float trailers, with just a few steel tipper trailers continuing to work, predominantly local.

As for running the business as brothers, Dave said it has worked out great.

“We get along really well and have a lot

of mutual friends. We have played sport together and ride our Harleys together. At work, we have never had a blue or bad word and we discuss everything to do with the business, except perhaps when I bought a T900 Kenworth for Kev to celebrate his, and mine, 40th birthday. I even got the guys at Kenworth to bring the truck down at night so he didn’t see it,” Dave smiled.

Iconic model As for this wonderful W-900, well let’s backtrack a bit to 1987, when MTI first got hold of it. Fresh out of Bayswater Victoria, this W-model was built in the last year of manufacture of the iconic Kenworth.

Caterpillar engine driving through a 15-speed overdrive transmission and 3.9/1 ratio Rockwell diffs, this specification would have seen the old, un-speed limited rig truly hold its own on the highway. A big truck for the time.

MTI placed the new truck in the capable hands of driver Gary Boyce to operate on interstate work, which he did for around 10 years or so.

By all accounts, Boyce was a bit of a character. During my interview with Dave, some stories were told of the good times Boyce had during the years with this truck, but I feel these stories are best left for telling around the fuel bowser.

One thing is for certain, Boyce loved this truck and looked after it really well during his time behind the wheel.

After making its mark on the highway for 10 years, first with Boyce at the wheel, then Kev, the 3406, although now opened up to 425hp (317kW) to try and keep up with more modern advancements, was feeling a little left behind in the pony department, so the truck was unceremoniously relegated to local duties.

One of the truck’s last roles saw it placed within the ASMS facility at Port Kembla, dragging 30- to 40-tonne loads of steel slag around the site from 2011 up until 2016.

It was this harsh environment that took its toll on the cosmetic appearance of the old W-Model, eventually seeing her baring more than her share of working life scars.

“I could literally fit my fist through a hole in the firewall of that truck,” Dave remarked.

During the course of its working life, however, the truck had been well maintained and looked after with a bit of a freshen up to the engine and the old unyielding torsion

bar suspension being tossed aside (where it belongs, just ask my chiropractor) for a more supple air suspension system and aluminium wheels.

Dave and Kev certainly have a soft spot for Kenworths, evidenced by the length of time they remain in service for the company (Dave still drives a 2003 T904). According to Dave: “It’s easy to find a driver to drive a well lookedafter 10-year-old Kenworth.”

With that in mind, in 2016, it was decided that this W-Model had well and truly earnt her keep, accumulating an odometer score of somewhere between 3.5 to 4 million kilometres. As a reward, it would be treated to a makeover.

The truck was stripped down to bare chassis rails for what would be a near threeyear restoration. It’s at this point we should introduce Jarrod. Jarrod is Dave’s son, who has also shown a keen interest in this truck since the age of 15, when he would come home from school with a few mates and start to remove components for the truck’s ultimate revival.

“The dad of one of my mates drove the truck for a while, so he was really interested in getting involved as well,” Jarrod said.

This enthusiasm of youth seemed to spur things on enough to allocate one of MTI’s mechanics to get things moving a little more quickly.

Mechanically the truck was largely left as it was, testament to the maintenance it had received throughout its life.

It is still running its original engine and transmission, but new Rockwell diffs were put in as a whole rear end replacement when the air suspension went in. The interior is in

130

original condition and remains untouched.

While there was no real timeline planned for the job, Dave said they wanted to do it right, so the truck was completely rewired.

“The truck was at our electricians for months,” Dave said.

Cab repairs and painting were done by Kent Collision and Kustom before the truck returned to Signs, Lines and Scrolls so that Dennis Swinnerton could work his magic brush to hand paint the line and scroll work on the cab to exactly match the way he had done it some 35 years earlier.

With the truck now finished, the historic plates signify a leisurely life of show patronage and classic truck rally runs.

“Jarrod really loves the old trucks and he takes the W-model to all the shows and has driven it on the Haulin’ the Hume truck run,” Dave said.

“He goes to the shows and sleeps in the truck; he’s been driving it since he was 20-years-old. He loves it.

Jarrod added: “I learnt to drive on 18-speed Roadrangers, so the 15-speed overdrive transmission with its ’round the corner shift means I really need to concentrate when I drive it."

It’s not all beer and skittles for 22-year-old Jarrod, though. He has served his time as a mechanic, working both outside and within the MTI business and is now learning the ropes from Dave and uncle Kev to gain firsthand knowledge of driving and floating large machinery and equipment with plans of taking over, eventually.

“Kev has a son also, he is a fitter by trade, and we would really like to maybe one day see him take part in the business as well,” Dave said.

“But, for now, he is living in Canada and has met a girl, so we are not sure how that will go.

It would be great for the two of them to take over some day.”

Learning from the ground up, Jarrod drives the scrap truck and is building on the experience already gained by riding ‘shotgun’ with Dave on school holiday trucking adventures.

He has also done dolly jobs to the SnowyHydro project travelling with other drivers, gaining invaluable experience in the adverse conditions encountered on that job.

It’s good to see training and mentorship being given to young drivers in line with their experience. Learning the ropes from the ground level surely results in a greater understanding and appreciation of the task with fewer mistakes along the way.

Someone wise once said to me: “Listen to the old blokes [drivers] when they offer advice, they have probably made the mistakes you haven’t even thought of yet.”

In our ever-increasing throwaway society it’s nice to see some nostalgia at play when it comes to long serving trucks. I know these old trucks have poor emission standards (as evidenced by the big Cat sooting from the chimneys in some of these photos), but as an occasional show cruiser, surely the historical and nostalgic factor is worthy a few diesel particulates in moderation.

Star BURST

Defiantly low sales have not dampened Western Star’s desire to reinvigorate the brand’s fortunes in our part of the world. In fact, following the US launch a year ago of the new 49X model and the recently released 47X, a new breed of Stars is set to hit our shores at the end of 2022. Locally, Penske’s people are keeping finer details close to the chest but here’s a report sure to shed some light

F Western Star 47X in typical US vocational roles. The potential, however, goes way beyond rigid work

unny how small, seemingly offthe-cuff statements can also be the precursor, the first hint, that something substantial is brewing in the background.

Take, for instance, a press conference at the Sydney Opera House near the end of 2019, marking the formal introduction on the Australian market of Freightliner’s much-anticipated Cascadia. This was obviously a big deal for Freightliner’s future and corporate heavyweights from Europe and the US had flown in for the occasion, led by the biggest bopper of them all, Daimler Trucks’ chairman of the board, Martin Daum.

Initially, it seemed neither the place nor the event to expect anything other than a firmly fixed focus on Freightliner, its domination of the North American truck market and Daimler Trucks North America’s (DTNA) high expectations for Cascadia in Australia.

Still, with time running short and questions becoming more random, it seemed opportune to ask if Herr Daum had any regrets that Western Star in Australia operates as part of automotive mogul Roger Penske’s empire rather than as a direct offshoot of DTNA, thus sold and serviced through the same Daimler Trucks Australia network as Freightliner, Fuso and Mercedes-Benz.

There were good grounds for the question, not least the fact that Western

Star sales have progressively plummeted since Penske took control in 2013. Without putting too fine a point on it, the brand’s fall from favour in our part of the world has been steep and spectacular.

Moreover, and as much as the two groups may deny it, there’s an uneasy existence between Daimler and Penske interests in the Australian market, despite the fact that Freightliner and Western Star, and Detroit Diesel, derive from the same corporate family.

As we subsequently reported, Daum’s response was brief and non-committal, yet ultimately revealing. For starters, Roger Penske companies operate close to a quarter of a million commercial vehicles in North America and sit among the top in DTNA’s customer ranks, so it was immediately apparent that upsetting the Penske portfolio was not on Daum’s agenda. Not that day, not any day!

“There are no regrets,” he replied sharply before adding: “But we need to refresh the product.”

Indeed, without giving any timing details or specific plans about future product, an adamant Daum said Western Star remains an important vocational product for DTNA with “huge potential”.

Yet, perhaps the greatest insight came after a somewhat benign question asking if and when a Cascadia eight-wheeler might

New DEALS be developed for the Australian market.

“Maybe Western Star will be first,” a smiling Daum concluded.

In hindsight, these few short comments were the first indications that not only was Daimler Trucks fully committed and probably well advanced with a major product renewal of Western Star, but DTNA remained intent on investing in right-hand drive models to supply and enhance Roger Penske’s interests in Australia and New Zealand.

It took a while for the realisation to sink in, but Daum was discreetly defining the ‘X’ factor in Western Star’s future.

Sliding scale Back in 2012, times were good for Western Star in Australia. Very good!

With just a handful of conventional models, and despite no cab-over in the mix, Western Star finished the year with a resoundingly successful 1,000 deliveries, third on the heavy-duty ladder with 8.8 per cent of the market, beaten only by Kenworth and Volvo.

Then, early in the second half of 2013, Penske Automotive Group acquired Western Star in its purchase of Transpacific’s Commercial Vehicle Group and, while the

Daimler Trucks global chief Martin Daum insists there’s “huge potential” for Western Star

Twin-steer models will be part of both 47X and 49X model line-ups

High and low roof versions of the 49X in typical North American roles. Australian configurations are still being determined

Roger Penske on a visit to Australia about five years ago. “It’s the big fleets we haven’t been able to conquer,” he said bluntly

brand didn’t crack the 1,000-sales mark that year, it certainly wasn’t disgraced with 8.5 per cent of the heavy-duty class on the delivery of 950 trucks. Again, only Kenworth and Volvo stood on higher rungs of the ladder, albeit much higher rungs.

From that year on, though, the good times became an increasingly distant memory as each year’s results were worse than the last, to the point that, in 2019 and 2020, Western Star could manage only a meagre 2.1 per cent of the heavy-duty category.

The only brands languishing lower on the ladder were Penske’s waste truck specialist Dennis Eagle, a redundant International and an ineffectual Hyundai.

Right now, 2021 is looking fractionally better but it remains a distant cry from the days when overt optimism and unbridled excitement greeted the announcement that Roger Penske, arguably the world’s greatest automotive entrepreneur, was paying a reported $219 million to be part of the Australian commercial vehicle and diesel engine markets.

This was, after all, the same man who, in 1988, had the foresight to recognise the potential of the revolutionary Series 60

engine and take control of Detroit Diesel from General Motors. Then, in 2000, after making a motza out of the engine business, sold control of the company to Daimler for around $700 million.

So, given his Midas-like ability to back winners, why has Australia delivered such difficult and seemingly disappointing results for Western Star under the Penske banner?

An answer obviously depends on who you ask. Some say Penske’s business model puts an overly ambitious price premium on an ageing and limited line-up. Others say DTNA has been way too slow in developing new models for a technologically advanced world, while others suggest exchange rates have been the biggest factor in keeping prices high on a tiring model range. More conciliatory observers might say it’s a combination of all these factors.

During an exclusive interview in mid-2016, even Roger Penske conceded there were a number of contributing factors when asked about Western Star’s increasingly poor sales performance.

“We’re limited to certain models and it’s really the big fleets we haven’t been able to conquer,” he told me.

“Quite honestly, the pricing in the marketplace has been fierce and, obviously, we’re in the business to make a return.”

Yet, despite tough market conditions, it was nonetheless a typically upbeat Penske who saw only bright prospects for the Australian operation.

“We feel good about where we’re going and I know we have a stronger base today than we had before,” he said.

“We’re committed and I know Daimler is committed to the product long-term.”

Maybe the term for new product has been much longer than expected but, for national sales manager of Penske Western Star Dale Christensen, Star has always been a better truck than sales figures of the past five years or so suggest.

“The biggest factor,” he said recently when asked why sales volumes have remained

136

DOW 475-132-141 ND Western Star CF.indd 136

5/1/2022 10:19 am

New DEALS stubbornly low, “has been the dollar [exchange rate] putting increased pricing pressure on the truck [and], therefore, we haven’t been able to win much fleet business.

That, I believe, is the chief reason we’re not at the market share we need to be at.”

There are, however, other factors.

“Our ageing product and the shift away from conventional trucks in the Australian market have all contributed to a lower volume of sales,” he asserted.

Yet, despite past and present challenges, it is an entirely confident Christensen who insists the future will deliver far stronger results.

“This is what is so exciting for Western Star moving forward to the new X-series of vehicles,” he said in a recent phone interview, emphasising that DTNA’s support for the Australian market and desire to introduce the new trucks here has been unwavering.

Moreover, it’s a buoyant Christensen who states the X-series has been under development for more than six years and Australia has been an integral part of the process from the outset.

“We will have an all-new product that will allow us to sell into new and existing markets, coupled with the latest safety options and improved cost of ownership [and] with these benefits, we are expecting to grow our volumes significantly,” he declared.

With the intended launch late next year of at least two (and maybe more) X-series models, it is not an unrealistic expectation.

What’s more, with the new models sporting a powertrain and safety features derived from Daimler’s extensive in-house armoury, it seems inevitable the X-series will come with cost synergies not achievable to the same extent in the current line-up. Just how far the cost containment will stretch remains to be seen but as always, competitive market forces will soon enough decide if they stretch far enough.

Furthermore, Randall Seymore, president of Penske Australia & New Zealand, left no doubt that the new truck was headed our way, in the process countering innuendo in some circles that Western Star’s ongoing poor sales are detrimental to the brand’s long-term viability on the Australian and New Zealand markets.

“Our launch plans for the new trucks will be revealed in due course,” Seymore said.

“However, we expect to see the trucks enter our local markets in late 2022 or early 2023.”

As things stand at the moment, Australia will see the new models in late ’22 and New Zealand soon after in early ’23.

There’s no question, the X-series is an entirely new clean-sheet design for Western Star and, while the 49X was first to hit the North American market, it certainly won’t be alone when it eventually arrives Down Under.

Alongside it will be the newly launched 47X, superseding the current 4700 model.

At this stage, Western Star insiders both here and in the US are giving no clues about the possibility or timing of X-series replacements for other models in the Australian range, namely the 4800, 5800 and 6900. An evasive Christensen said simply: “We’ll just have to wait and see what comes.”

Whatever, the 49X and 47X appear the

Clever! Part of the 47X design includes a ‘flex panel’ on the dash for PTO control, tipper switches and the like

The ‘X’ factor First of Western Star’s X-series platform to make an appearance was the 49X, launched in the US in September last year. In our neck of the woods, the current 4900 has long been a cornerstone of the Western Star stable and, with the announcement of its replacement in the US, Penske’s local leadership didn’t waste any time outlining plans for the new model’s introduction.

In fact, just the day after the US release of the 49X, a Penske press release announced: “Penske has worked closely with DTNA over several years throughout the development process of the new trucks and will continue to do so in the lead up to the launch in our local markets.”

ideal foundations for a revitalised Western Star push in the Australian and New Zealand markets, each offering the Daimler drivetrain and safety features that have become integral in the latest Freightliner, Fuso and Mercedes-Benz models but, to date, have been unavailable in Western Star.

Again, exact details are being closely guarded but the latest versions of Detroit DD13, DD15 and DD16 engines, Daimler’s super-smooth DT12 automated transmission and the Detroit Assurance suite of safety systems will be prominent.

Wisely, though, Cummins engines, Eaton manual and Allison automatic transmission options will continue to be available, though it’s almost inevitable these will be carefully tailored to various applications across the two models.

As Christensen explained: “We are working with DTNA on the final components and testing for both the 49X and 47X, but we are

expecting the 49X will have a GCM [gross combination mass] that can be greater than 200 tonnes.”

As for the 47X, he says it will have a minimum GCM of 45 tonnes, with a maximum of 70 tonnes, “… but we are working with DTNA to ensure this is a lot higher.”

From the outside looking in, the 47X is arguably the model with the greatest potential for boosting Western Star’s sales figures in our neck of the woods, due to its greatly enhanced versatility for a wider range of applications, from linehaul to local distribution and vocational work such as concrete agitators.

Critically, we understand eight-wheelers in both 47X and 49X models will be part of the Australian line-up from the outset.

Randall Seymour

Penske’s Randall Seymore returns to US Roger Penske’s right-hand man in Australia, Randall Seymore, is returning to a senior Penske role in the US but will continue to oversee operations in Australia and New Zealand.

According to a senior Penske Australia spokesperson: “After eight years in Australia establishing the Penske Australia & New Zealand business, Randall Seymore is transitioning back to Penske Automotive Group [PAG], which wholly owns Penske Australia & New Zealand.

“In his new role as executive vice president, global operations for commercial vehicles and power systems at PAG, Randall will continue to oversee Penske Australia & New Zealand.

“Hamish Christie-Johnston will continue his role as managing director of Penske Australia & New Zealand, based in Penske’s Melbourne office.” models easily identifiable with a notably wider cab and hood, and curved singlepiece windscreen.

For North America, the 47X comes in setback and set-forward front axle layouts, and offers two sleeper options – a 36-inch (91cm) low-roof and 48-inch (122cm) mid-roof. Again, it’s still to be determined what packages will be available for our market.

In an early morning Zoom meeting with Western Star in the US soon after the North American launch of the 47X, DTNA vicepresident of vocational market development Samantha Parlier was quick to cite the ability “… to reach into Daimler’s global toolbox for components,” as a major benefit in X-series development.

She was, however, equally quick to point out that while the 47X shares many fundamental design features with the 49X, especially in the cab and hood, it also has its own distinct qualities for vocational roles.

The wraparound dash design, for instance, has an innovative ‘flex panel’ for the fitment of power take-off and hydraulic controls, effectively freeing up the space next to the driver’s seat where these controls would be normally housed. On the top of the dash, there’s also a convenient port for electrical connection to dash-mounted ancillary data and information screens.

Tare weight reduction is a particularly high priority in the X-series program and, in the case of the 47X, Parlier cites a new 9.5mm single channel chassis rail, the new steel-reinforced aluminium cab, and a standard bumper to back-of-cab dimension of 2,835mm as valuable contributors to worthwhile weight savings.

There are, however, even more significant tare weight gains to be had. For example, while standard power in the 47X comes from the 12.8- litre Detroit DD13 Gen 5 engine with up to 525hp (391kW) and 1,850lb-ft (2,508Nm)

of torque, the US version also offers Cummins 8.9-litre L9 and 12-litre X12 engines “for weightsensitive applications”.

For Australia, the Cummins L9 is wellestablished in concrete agitator roles and is almost certain to be available in the righthand drive 47X. Not nearly as certain is the X12. Indeed, questions about whether the livewire X12 engine will be offered in Australia drew a decidedly cautious response from Western Star insiders both here and in the US. With up to 500hp (373kW) and around

1,700ft-lb (2,305Nm) of torque, the highly responsive X12 doesn’t have quite the grunt of the DD13 but nor does it have the weight, scaling in almost 300kg lighter (dry weight) than the 12.8-litre Detroit.

What’s more, tests of the 12-litre Cummins in Australian applications over the past few years have shown impressive results, not least in a Western Star B-double combination on linehaul shuttle runs and notably, a lightweight 4700 prime mover.

According to several sources, the X12-

New DEALS

powered 4700 test truck revealed exceptional potential for a multitude of short-haul and regional workloads, and as one executive wit remarked: “It’d be a no-brainer for giving Star a jump on Kenworth and Mack, and probably Freightliner, too.”

Despite our enquiries and the strong test results, Western Star insiders won’t publicly state why the X12 was never offered here in the 4700. For the record, neither would Kenworth say why the X12 wasn’t made available in the T410 despite strong dealer and customer demand.

The answer, however, could probably be found in the X12’s potential to infringe on DD13 uptake and, likewise, on uptake of the Paccar MX-13 engine in Kenworth’s T410.

Yet, it’s the upcoming availability of the DD13 in the 47X that has Penske’s people particularly pumped. As Christensen commented: “We’ve never had a market competitive 13-litre in that lighter, smaller model [and] we’re extremely excited about that.”

The DD13 also brings other major benefits to the 47X, as DTNA’s press release points out.

“Standard for any 47X equipped with the DD13 Gen 5, the Detroit Assurance suite of active safety systems brings industry-leading safety solutions to the vocational segment, including active brake assist, side guard assist, adaptive cruise control and more.” The ‘more’ includes disc brakes.

Still, the X12 certainly isn’t out of contention for Australia.

“We are currently looking at all options,” said Christensen, “and will firm up our offering across the new Western Star series next year.

“We’re excited with what both our engine partners, Detroit and Cummins, have in the pipeline for the new series [and] we will continue to look at all alternative drivelines,” he concluded.

When it’s all boiled down, though, the corporate and commercial preference will be obviously for the in-house family supplier rather than the outsider, even one as well regarded as Cummins.

Whatever the final mix of standard and optional powertrains for the Australian market, Western Star’s new X-series models are undoubtedly an overdue and potentially potent return to better days for a brand that, despite dismal sales over the past four or five years particularly, retains a strong undercurrent of respect among owners and drivers.

Sure, given the extraordinary competitiveness of the Australian market, climbing back to prominence on the heavyduty ladder will be no easy haul but, with the right products in its ranks, Western Star is one brand with at least the reputation to give it a fair crack.

Bring it on!

Before COVID, The Joker had been one of the most recognisable exhibits around the truck show circuit.

But now the customised Kenworth T950 is in the hands of Jared Payne, a young man who has a thing for eye-catching gear and who plans to take Batman’s nemesis on the road again

o a wide-eyed young fella at the Castlemaine Truck Show, the sight of an immaculately presented and customised T950 Kenworth lit a fire inside. A burning desire that, unbeknown to him at the time, would one day be quenched by a high-stake barter. That truck was ‘The Joker’.

The Kenworth T950, better known as The Joker, takes refuge from the constant rain in an Unanderra, NSW shed

Jared Payne had is eye on The Joker long before he bought it

The Joker will be well known to those custom truck aficionados who frequent the truck show circuit, or just follow the scene on social media. Hailing from the Thorpe Custom Truck stable, the company is well known for its one-of-a-kind individual personalisation flair, which also includes such works of art as Lenny’s Pride, Life’s A Circus, Black-Out, The Green Mile, The Ring Master and many more customised creations.

The Joker, with its Batman Dark Knight movie-themed artwork paying homage to Heath Ledger’s character on the bonnet, stunned show-goers at the 2009 Alexandra Truck, Ute and Rod show to take out the coveted Truck of the Show award. However,

it wasn’t always airbrushed paint, shiny aluminium and cruisy truck show appearances for the T950. This truck has some working heritage as well.

I’ve had the history of this truck explained to me by the current owner to the best of his knowledge, along with some of my own research, so hopefully it is chronologically correct.

A far cry from its current life of semiretirement, the chequered history of this T950 would see it start out as a truck and dog tipper combination before finding its way into the hands of Thorpe Custom Trucks. It was here that the workingclass truck would eventually morph into something quite different.

The chassis length didn’t lend itself well to the general on-road freight task it was slated to be tasked with, particularly B-double work, so it was shortened to a length more suitable to that of a prime mover.

Working closely in collaboration with Transart in Bendigo, the working-class

heritage of the truck was airbrushed and sprayed away under layers of carefully applied paint by the auto artists. The dash, chassis, engine and body work were all treated to the burgundy and red hues the truck still sports today. The fully customised interior with contrasting black and red colours blends comfortably with the Dark Knight- themed truck featuring an uncanny likeness to Heath Ledger’s Joker character.

Originally fitted with a Cummins N14 ‘red head’ engine, the truck is now powered by a Cummins Signature engine rated at 620hp (462kW) driving through an 18-speed Eaton manual transmission. The engine exhales its waste gases via seven-inch (17.8cm) straightthrough pipes offering a rumbling symphony to behold.

A front Texas Bar, quad polished aluminium fuel tanks, bullet roof lights, off-set front alloy wheels and stainless steel Lelox rear guards combine with little touches like the diamantéencrusted Kenworth bug on the bonnet and ‘why-so-serious’ air brushed battery covers to make sure this truck is one-of-a-kind.

The truck was worked by Thorpe for some time on general freight and container transport tasks, as well as attending all the best truck shows to promote the custom truck business.

It would seem a life of logging was in the truck’s destiny. It was eventually sold by Thorpe and shipped off to ‘Van Diemen’s Land’ (otherwise known as Tasmania) like a common convict. The crime must have been minor as the sentence to the island colony was short lived and the truck was soon back on the big island under the ownership of Clearwater Logging & Transport in Colac, Victoria.

After a period of time The Joker was once again put up for sale, which brings the story to the truck’s current owner Jared Payne, the wide-eyed young bloke from the Castlemaine Truck Show who had been wooed by The Joker’s charm and character.

Now 22-years-old and a mechanic by trade, Jared, based in the NSW Illawarra district, spotted The Joker listed for sale and immediately remembered his longing for the truck, spurred on by admiring it at the truck show some years earlier.

The truck had a serious price tag attached to it and it would take some lateral thinking to get the truck into young Jared’s hands.

“I saw the ad with the truck listed for sale and I had wanted that truck from the first time I had seen it but thought that I would never be able have it,” Payne said.

Straight swap The truck had been listed for sale for quite some time, possibly in part due to the price tag and the need to find a buyer that would truly appreciate the time and work that went into creating the truck.

Payne saw his opportunity to buy the truck, but not in a traditional way.

“I admit that I did stalk the seller’s Facebook profile while dreaming of buying the truck,” he said.

“It was while doing this that I noticed that he was into water-skiing and boating and it just so happened that I had a Malibu wake boat. This got me thinking whether he might consider a swap."

Luck was well and truly on Payne’s side and the seller agreed to a straight-out swap, the truck for the boat.

Just like that, Payne’s dream had become an instant reality.

That was around six months ago and the lust for this truck has not waned one bit.

Payne said he was originally going to work the truck but decided that it was just too good to put to full time work. For now, The Joker will be a regular at truck shows, with Payne planning to take it to the Kenworth Klassic at Clarendon and the Dane Ballinger Memorial Truck Show in Bathurst, NSW. First things first, however. Some work, if you could call it that, will be required from The Joker. Payne has a mate that is involved in the car racing game, competing in the Porsche Carrera cup events. The Joker will take up duties carting the race cars to meetings around the tracks, towing an exJack Daniels racing car transport trailer.

“This will allow me to get the truck working a little bit, with the added income of carrying out work on the race cars as well,” he said.

“I have a few things I would like to change on The Joker. I have a polished turntable to go on it and I would like to get a set of super chromes to fit up; I’m a bit tired of all the polishing. At some point I may also change the exhaust pipes, too, but other than that I’m just keeping up the maintenance and tidying it up."

Passion indulged If truck shows are anything to go by, classic, custom and show trucks are like drugs to many people. The lure of that next hit (a new truck or shiny bit to go on it) is so great that nothing can stand in the way, except maybe the wife, but let’s not tell her about this. It’s secret men’s (or women’s, we are all-gender embracing here) business, right?

Fortunately, or unfortunately, depends how you look at it, Payne is single and can write his own narrative.

He also lives at home with his parents,

which makes it a bit easier to indulge his passion.

Additionally, for Payne, buying and selling machines and equipment provides some extra income to fuel his addiction further.

He has already negotiated his second customised truck, which also happens to be a Thorpe truck as well. Next year he plans to take ownership of Life’s A Circus, a Kenworth T908, which is currently running around Sydney as a truck-and-dog combination.

“I will probably shorten that truck up a bit as well as the sale is without the tipper bin. I am going to work that one, but I said that about The Joker and changed my mind, so anything could happen,” he laughed.

Payne is also planning to buy a cabover Kenworth, putting a driver in it while maintaining his income as a mechanic and building his business. But that’s a little further down the road.

Darcy Pollard arrived at Centenary Landscaping Supplies looking for a few days’ work driving trucks. That was more than three decades ago – now he’s the go-to guy for any truck and maintenance issues while also driving around south-east Queensland in a brand new 8x4 UD Quon

hen Darcy Pollard arrived at Centenary Landscaping Supplies at Darra in south-east Queensland just on 32 years ago, it was by all accounts a fairly modest operation. His arrival was only three years after the now managing director Terry O’Shea purchased the company, which itself hadn’t long been in operation.

The new 8x4 twin-steer UD Quon, Darcy Pollard’s designated truck

Pollard recalled starting out in a little Centenary Landscaping Supplies’ 2.5-tonne Daihatsu.

“We had one loader and one forklift when I started, and maybe four little trucks and one big truck,” he said.

He laughed when he said he would load a little more than the allocated payload on the Daihatsu, adding: “I had long hair and no grey hairs when I started.”

Pollard, a painter by trade, came to Centenary almost by accident. He was in the midst of painting a house but work in his industry was slowing down.

“A mate of mine who was working here said: ‘Do you want to do a couple of days a week driving a truck?’ And I said: ‘Yeah, got to pay the bills.’ And I’ve been here ever since.”

Due to the fair amount of cherry picker work that was part of his previous occupation, he came to Centenary already holding a truck licence.

Pollard eventually progressed from the Daihatsu, stepping into a 12.5-tonne Mitsubishi for around 12 years with a Hercules tipper trailer on the back. That suited him just fine, until a few months ago when he was handed the keys to a brand new 8x4 UD Quon.

“Honestly, nothing compares to these new ones,” he said.

“They’ve just got everything that you need, and they’re just a great truck to drive. The Mitsubishi is nothing.”

Pollard counted around 16 trucks of various makes and models in the Centenary Landscaping Supplies fleet, with almost all hauling a Hercules trailer.

“We’ve got two more UDs down the back; they’re a bogie drive and not twin-steer and they’ve proven their point,” he added.

“They’re a good truck.”

Hercules has maintained its status as the preferred choice of trailer for Centenary.

The fact that its facility is five minutes away is convenient but, more importantly, Pollard says it’s a problem-free product.

“The last truck I had for 12 years, never had a repair on it; nothing on the bin,” he said.

Driver comfort Pollard’s runs are mostly confined to south-east Queensland, mainly west to Toowoomba, north to the Sunshine Coast and south to the Gold Coast. However, his preference is for the longer runs up and down the coast, and not the stop-start around town deliveries. He was especially keen on an upcoming trip to northern New South Wales, taking loads of organic fertiliser for farms. At any rate, the 420hp (313kW) Quon is decked out with the driver in mind to make his day a lot easier.

“It’s got a cold box in there, which is good,” he said.

“You open a little flap and it’s always cold.

You can turn it on or off, hot or cold.

“It’s comfortable; the dash is just laid out very easy to see. When you drive some other trucks, you’ve always got to move your head

around to see all the gauges. With this you don’t, it’s all there.

“The big thing is, when you’re driving 10 hours a day, you want to be comfortable.”

Another plus, as far as Pollard is concerned, is the 12-speed automated manual ’box. Gone are the days when he would be constantly hitting the clutch in city and suburban traffic.

He’s also a big fan of the Quon’s reversing camera.

“They’re like a full HD movie,” he smiled.

“Not like the old days when you would stick your head out the window.”

The term ‘movie’ has become more apt around the Centenary yard, with the newer trucks sporting a nickname belonging to a superhero of some description. Pollard placed his hand in the hat and came up with ‘Anarky’, a villainous character that originated in DC comics, although he admits he’s not a big movie buff.

O’Shea believes it’s all part of promoting a positive culture within the business, which is also the reasoning behind introducing an internal communications system called Slack.

This gives the team the opportunity to share points of view, jokes and birthdays.

“Because driving a truck can be pretty lonely, with this program they can communicate on their phones, they can make a complaint even, which we take very seriously,” O’Shea said.

156

“They can praise each other, they can give each other a clip in the ear if you like, but it’s all taken in good measure.

“But that has been a program that has cemented the relationship between, not just the drivers, but all the staff. We’ve got other people who don’t drive that have been here for a long time as well.”

O’Shea said giving the drivers the best gear is also vitally important for morale.

“I think it’s the culture that we’ve built around people, not just product. We try and give them the best trucks that we can give them, we try to train them as best we can and we respect their points of view.”

And no-one knows the Centenary culture better than Pollard who O’Shea regards as more than a driver.

“He’s the truck supervisor; that’s basically his title,” he said.

“Pollard is a particular character insofar as he knows a lot about trucks, he knows about a lot about the culture of the company and he’s the guy that will crack the whip if people fall outside that. He doesn’t mince his words.

“Is that a good thing? I think it is.

“He’s also the senior figure that people look up to. He’s the guy that nurtures all the drivers and their trucks. He’s the go-to guy at this point in time.

“Basically he’s a supervisor, particularly with maintenance. He does all the ordering of spare parts; he organises mechanics to come in and fix them.

“He’s a fixer. Pollard is a fixer.”

Pollards says he's looked after at Centenary Landscaping Supplies

Designated driver Each driver has a designated truck at Centenary Landscaping Supplies. As mentioned earlier, Pollard, being one of the senior employees, scored the 8x4 UD Quon.

Part of that arrangement is for drivers to look after their respective gear, although Pollard said an external company calls in once a fortnight to wash the trucks. There’s also a Gerni on site.

While it’s not expected, drivers can take the trucks home if they’re keen to give them a more thorough tidy up.

“Most of the trucks are kept pretty up to date and pretty nice and clean,” Pollard explained.

“Terry likes all the tyres all done because they’re out on the road all the time.”

Pollard said he takes the Quon home “every now and then”, mostly to the delight of his grandkids.

“The two little boys, anything to do with motors they’re into. They take after Pop; I’m an old revhead,” he laughed.

“Anything that goes fast, I’m into it.”

At age 57, Pollard said he has a few more years left, although he’d like to pull up around 60 to 62. He’s already cut back on working weekends.

“They’re a good company to work for,” he said of Centenary Landscaping Supplies.

“They look after you and, with an airconditioned truck, you’re not sweating all day.

“It’s a little family company and I get new trucks to drive all the time. What else could you ask for?”

Rising through the RANKS

Amid all the talk about truck driving apprenticeships, James Hadley is proof that receiving the correct advice and training is not only the ideal path to a successful career in road transport but, in this case, receiving the keys to a sparkling clean and comfortable Kenworth T610 160

“

ell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn” – Benjamin Franklin. It’s a pretty deep and philosophical way to start my first story of the new year. Bear with me though, folks, I’m not just trying to impress you with inspiring quotes, there is method in my madness.

Young James loves the Kenworth T610 he drives for Fred’s Transport. His approach and attitude may be just part of who he is but it also gets recognised and rewarded by his employers

This quote by Benjamin Franklin, who along with being known as one of the founding fathers of the country responsible for extremely long, low, cool trucks (the United States), he was also the inventor of swim fins and bifocals.

None of that is really that important. The point of the quote is that it sums up the young man behind the wheel of the Fred’s Transport Kenworth T610 you see before you – James Hadley.

Hadley has quite literally grown up on passenger seats here and abroad. He has been told, he has been taught but, most

importantly, he has been involved in trucking his whole life, completing a 20-year apprenticeship and ending up with the keys to one of the most stunning Aussie-designed rigs on the road.

Hadley's story really does start well before he was even a glimmer in his old man’s eye.

His father, Ben, who would be the catalyst and benchmark for Hadley's trucking passion, was born with diesel in his veins.

He spent time behind the wheel of some legendary trucks for the likes of Iannelli’s Transport and Constantino’s. When Hadley popped into the world the family was based in Canberra, where his dad was hauling refrigerated loads for Iannelli’s.

At a year old, Hadley headed over to England, not on his own, obviously. His mum, Barbara, had been picked to represent Australia in snooker and was there to play some tournaments. When Barbara was busy in the ‘bright canary yellow’ Australian

5/1/2022 10:15 am

DEALS Profile jersey, Hadley got strapped into his car seat and locked in the passenger seat of a Scania his dad was driving on general freight.

I did try and quiz Hadley on his evaluation of English trucking conditions and their equipment and got the unhelpful response of: “Mate, I was a baby, I don’t remember shit.”

After a year, the family returned to Australia and Canberra for a brief stint before they all moved to the Gold Coast, where Ben started working for a newly formed company, SRV Freight Lines. By now, Hadley was also a bit older and thankfully for story telling purposes, was able to recall a few more of his trips with dad.

“I remember sitting in SRV’s truck loading Smiths Chips and the forkies would come up alongside and give me bags of chips,” Hadley smiled.

“Dad would get back in and there would be crumbs everywhere.”

Ben’s work ethos and trucking passion were the original spark that ignited Hadley. He spent as much time as he could in his dad’s passenger seats, even when not invited.

“Apparently, one time when dad was driving a Super-Liner for Constantino’s, I was strapped into my seat in the sleeper. Dad recalls suddenly feeling something tugging the back of his head and found I’d got myself out and climbed over while he was driving,” Hadley said with a grin.

The older he got, the more time he would spend with his dad in the truck. The more

time he spent with his dad, the more he took in and the more involved he became.

His time in the passenger seat was where he learnt not just on-road skills and attitude but how to treat the gear and look after other people’s property. Regardless of what truck Hadley’s dad was in, it was looked after as if it was his own.

Seeing and assisting with this, along with a natural love of trucks, saw Hadley follow in his father’s approach.

“As a kid, it was always pulling up for your half-hour break and he’d be out with the Windex doing tanks or stacks, always out there cleaning,” he said.

He laughed as he recalled his dad pulling up if he knew there was rain ahead; not to avoid the rain but to get the weed sprayer out and soak the back wall with truck wash. A bit of mother nature’s natural car wash.

That attention to detail and insistence on keeping a clean rig has been the backbone of Hadley’s career so far. It’s a lot easier to find the time and energy for that when you are driven by a passion for the industry.

Doing an unofficial apprenticeship under his dad played a huge part in getting Hadley started. Officially, he started in the industry when he was the ripe old age of 12.

“Dad was doing an operations job at Midway Freight Services and I was in the yard washing the trucks,” Hadley recalled.

“They used to let me drive the trucks around bobtail to get to the wash bay.”

Wanting to get back on the road, Ben left

Midway and started driving with Zagami Transport – and so did Hadley, keeping the wash bay busy there as well.

It was here that Hadley connected with one of the bosses, Darryl Dye, who played another mentoring role in the young fella’s career.

“Darryl was always good to me. I did some stupid things and lost my car licence, but Darryl always stuck by me,” Hadley said.

“He’d even let me sleep in the trucks at night so I could wash them early in the morning.”

Along with time on the books as the wash boy, and school obviously, Hadley would spend holidays in the passenger seat with Ben. “I’d go with dad and, when he pulled up for his break, I’d practise backing in the parking bays,” Hadley smiled.

“Dad would spend the first couple of hours of his break going back and forth.”

Tipper drives Once Hadley was old enough and had stopped being a typical Aussie kid long enough to hold on to his car licence, he got his HR licence. Finally, he was on his way towards a life on the road.

After years of staring out the passenger side window as Australia passed by he was finally and ‘legally’ getting behind the wheel and getting paid to do it. At 20-years-old, Hadley had more experience in linehaul, loading, strapping and, of course, cleaning than most. So it was with great gusto he got licensed up and jumped straight into an HR Fuso tipper.

“I hated every bit of driving tippers, but you have to do what you have to do,” Hadley said. Even at that age, with a lot of real work experience behind him, Hadley displayed a First drive: I did say he started early, didn’t I?

mature response to the industry.

“It’s a steppingstone, washing trucks to driving them. You can’t just step into the biggest and best.”

Keep in mind, Hadley already had his first B-double job lined up well before he had his licence, but he admits going for that tipper job was rather daunting.

“I was still so young, probably still looked 12. The bloke that took me for the initial test drive looked at me and said, ‘Nah, he doesn’t have it,” he recalled. However, he says that guy changed his mind well before the test drive had finished.

He spent a bit of time in the company’s oldest Fuso, a battered old girl that Hadley loved. He cleaned and polished both inside and out and treated it like gold on every job they sent him on. Those traits, that had been handed down from his dad, saw him get promoted to one of the company’s newest Isuzu’s fairly quickly.

Hadley spent that year-long HR period mastering the art of ’round town tipping work but his heart was always on the highway running, the on-road adventure.

As soon as he was qualified for his MC, Hadley left the Gold Coast and headed to the New South Wales town of Yass to work alongside his dad at Adelaide Refrigerated.

His B-double licence arrived and, before the ink was dry on it, Hadley was into a Freightliner Argosy and doing his first solo B-double run from Yass to Sydney.

“It was an awesome experience because Dad was right behind me.” Although his dad was in a 730hp (544kW) Scania, so I doubt he stayed behind Hadley for long.

The time at Adelaide Refrigerated was another massive learning curve for Hadley.

His job was just to run the loads in and out of Sydney, doing all types of loads. The biggest challenge was the ‘bag chucker’ role.

“I was in all manner of trucks; they had Scanias and Freightliners but also had the big cab Aerodynes and 908s and that,” he said.

This gave Hadley much varied experience.

The spoils of loving a tidy truck and looking after a tidy truck is the collection of trophies that Hadley has picked up along the way Hadley’s first truck at Muscat Haulage still looked as good on his last day as it did when it rolled off the production line Can’t forget the Queen of Clean.

It’s not just about the trucks – check out the well finished trailers sets that turn the Freds units into mobile works of art

What didn’t change was Hadley’s approach to the trucks he was given. He still spent any waiting or downtime cleaning. He’d get into the Sydney yard with time to kill so he’d break out the hose.

“The bosses used to give me crap because I’d clean it when I was in the yard. Even though I was giving it back [to the regular driver] at Yass, I’d still clean it,” Hadley said.

“If the outside was okay I’d do the inside.

Some blokes really appreciated it, others couldn’t give a crap.”

All of that was irrelevant to Hadley. It was the pride he took in his job that mattered to him. In the end, though, it was noticed. That became evident when he was approached

by Andrew Muscat of Muscat Haulage.

Learning the ropes Now those in the industry who appreciate a good-looking truck will know the Muscat Haulage trucks. They are the epitome of working show trucks.

When Hadley had a call for an interview early in 2017, he admitted to a few nerves.

“Andrew invited me ’round for an interview, they were a bit hesitant because of my age and the insurance side of it but they offered me a job in their green 900,” he recalled.

“I was very, very nervous. The first week I spent with Chris [Muscat] was learning how to load steel and tarp trailers. It was extremely new to me.”

The nerves were more directly related to the loads, as Hadley had a 20-year apprenticeship mainly based around gates and curtains – and a year of tipping.

The move to flattops and tarps was a big step. To do so with a company renowned for high standards can be even more daunting.

“It was a compliment,” Hadley admitted, referring to the call-up from Muscat.

“But I knew it would be hard work, especially with how particular they are with their gear.”

Hadley spent the next three-and-a-half years with the Muscat family, eventually getting handed the keys to a brand new Kenworth T659.

“That was a big thing for me, they are a small family company and they handed me the keys to a brand-new truck.”

Having met the Muscats myself, I questioned Hadley as to whether it felt more like a homecoming when he joined the team.

His level of attention to detail and desire to keep his truck in mint condition would be like finding the perfect last piece of the puzzle at Muscat Haulage.

He was quick to agree but added: “I learnt a lot from my dad, but Muscats were next level. They have their own standards about how particular they are. They taught me a lot about not just keeping a truck nice, but also looking after it, like not driving with your arm resting on the gearstick, being extra

cautious, triple checking things and basic maintenance.”

Along with gaining a lot of knowledge while working for Yass-based Muscat Haulage, Hadley gained a lovely lady to be by his side. Those on his social media may know Danika as the one often photographed polishing James’s truck while he’s posing for TikTok. Finding a lady that will tolerate a truckie’s lifestyle can be a hard thing, finding one that’s willing to start a family with a linehaul trucker is even harder.

Unfortunately the ‘F’ word can often disrupt many plans, as it did for Hadley.

“If I started a family not near my mum I wouldn’t be alive to see that family,” he joked, so he handed back the keys to his beloved T659 and moved to the Gold Coast with Danika, keeping his mum very happy and giving Hadleythe chance to try his hand somewhere new.

Right said Fred Much to my surprise, Hadley wasn’t being regularly chased down for jobs. He’s young, skilled, truck mad and looks after his trucks.

“I wasn’t offered a lot,” he says. “Most people were told ‘you won’t get him away from Muscats’.”

In the end, Hadley ended up in the offices of Fred’s Transport, checking to see if they had any work based around the Gold Coast.

His reputation had preceded him and Fred’s

were more than happy to take the young fella on.

Hadley jumped from a stunning T659 straight into a Kenworth T909. The driver happened to be away and Hadley was given the truck to babysit before a dedicated T909 became available. While still waiting, he got put in one of the company’s T610 autos.

“I love the 610, it’s a great truck, so much room and comfortable,” Hadley enthused.

The 610 was only meant to be another fill in but when a three-week-old manual became available, Hadley’s hand went up quicker than petrol prices on a long weekend. So, we arrive at the mouth-watering Kenworth T610 you see here.

Fred’s Transport is one of the companies leading the way in driver appreciation, making sure it fits the trucks out to look after the guys and girls that are living in them.

Hadley has the big bunk version of Kenworth’s T610, fitted with dual fridges, microwave, inverter, stand-up cupboards and even a TV so he doesn’t miss an episode of Lego Masters. All of this with a 34 pallet B-double set sitting in tow. It’s a comfortable home away from home.

Then we have the outside of the big bunk T610. Just to ensure James keeps Windex in business and making certain his fatigue breaks aren’t wasted on social media, the truck has more than enough shiny bits to

keep him occupied. The wrapped tanks alone can fill in a mandatory rest break.

Due to Hadley’s work ethic and pride in his ride you could be easily convinced he parks up when it rains. You would be wrong; the truck and Hadley work their butts off.

He is away from home five to six nights a week, running predominantly MelbourneBrisbane-Sydney with excursions as far afield as Emerald in Central Queensland or Adelaide.

Hadley could be labelled ‘the hose whisperer’. He will find somewhere to give his rig a clean-up, even if it’s just a nearby tap with his trusty bucket and sponge.

Setting himself such high standards, it’s simply a case of having to do it.

“Even though I’m only doing it for myself, you feel like no one notices, but the moment you don’t wash your truck everyone’s on the 2-way, commenting.”

At just 26-years-old, Hadley could be classed as young, but only on paper. He has literally grown up in the industry. Proof of that is the photo floating around of him getting his nappies changed on the fuel tank of his dad’s Scania.

Before you ask, it was the one in England when he was 12 months, not the Scania at Adelaide Refrigerated when he was 20. But I’d better check that.

Anyway, Hadley’s passion and love for the industry has not waned. His stocks of Windex, microfibre cloths and paint polish are proof of that.

As the industry finally begins discussing the idea of an apprenticeship system,

Hadley is a testament to the product it can produce. The skills and knowledge that he has absorbed as he grew up in the passenger seat were honed and polished once he began working his way up through the ranks.

The end result is a young man with an old school attitude, a thorough respect for the industry and a passion that we need more of. A lot more.
