WORLDKINGS - Worldkings News - Australia Records Institute (AURI) – The Giant Australian Road Train: World's longest road train

04-07-2020

(Worldkings.org) The Giant Australian Road Train is the world's longest road train. This length is the equivalent of 156 London buses.

On 18 February 2006, the record for the longest road train is 1,474.3 m (4,836 ft 11 in) where a single Mack Titan prime mover, driven by John Atkinson (Australia), towed 113 trailers for a distance of approximately 150 m (490 ft) in an event sponsored by Hogs Breath Café, in Clifton, Queensland, Australia.

This length is the equivalent of 156 London buses.

This truck is for the most part a custom form truck and appended with 28 axles and a hundred wheels. This truck is particularly reasonable for byway regions for its carrying capacity.

The Australian road train truck is basically used to convey a gigantic measure of material to the mining organizations and homesteads.

The gearbox of 18-speed and the motor of 550 HP with a huge amount of fuel, causes a great deal to run the road train, the greatest truck ever.
