Road trains

We have seen lots of road trains on our trip so far, but nowhere near the concentration that we saw them in today.

 

We passed more than 100 coming in the opposite direction today, as we made our way south from Port Hedland. These huge trucks tow up to 4 carriages and can be more than 50 metres in length. They carry anything from fuel, to livestock, to general supplies. Most of the ones we saw today were carrying iron-ore from the mines.

 

It can be very daunting as they come toward you and pass so close!!
