Day 21 - Daly Waters to Barkly Homestead

On the way back from getting fuel at Boroloola. We had just come up behind this road train when the road suddenly widened to two lanes and the truck slowed down. It was turning into the Mcarthur mine. WooHoo!!

Gave us a good opportunity to get a shot of the trailers used to transport copper ore.

Great shot of this monster train, lucky that there were two lanes!

[Denise Wood]

That's scary - and oh so long!!!!!

[M. Brutus]

Good capture. Illustrates the term road train very nicely. I hadn't heard it before. Two trailers is the max over here, I believe.

Interesting narrative and capture Terry you wouldn't want to follow this far when low on fuel:)

[Lou Ann]

Wow oh wow.

Wow… I can’t believe something that big/long is allowed on the road.
