Brian, I know you have current contacts in Oz, I'm thinking tinnies to bribe them over here, then a rush hour trip round the inner link road

Can't help feeling that seatbelts would have been useful for those track-layer racers.
Two things about the road trains here in Oz.
In the South West they can only have 3 trailers on highways -- up north they frequently have 5 -- with a max speed limit of 100Ks. Either way you need patience as they can be a real so and so to overtake.
We quite often have road trains delivering, or collecting, sheep from our farm. What amazes me are the drivers abilities to reverse these rigs in the most restricting of places. They seem to have a perverse pleasure in achieving what us lesser mortals would not even attempt.
