Massive 1000 hp Kenworth C510 with 5 trailer road train

  • These Massive 1000 horsepower Kenworth C510s at Burton Downs Mine are specifically designed for off-highway use and rated up to 250 tonne. They’re powered by Cummins’ 19-litre QSK-19 engine which complies with Australian on-highway emission requirements (ADR80). Designed primarily for high-end road train applications, the big-bore Cummins engine provides superior levels of durability and reliability than is currently available from smaller cubic capacity engines.
    Click the link below for your copy of GREAT AUSTRALIAN ROAD TRAINS www.amazon.com.au/dp/B09HG4VX3W
    The engine delivers 606 hp (447 kW) at 2100 rpm, with peak torque of 1950 lb ft (2644 Nm) at 1300 rpm. Other key components include an 18-speed Fuller RTLO-22918B transmission, with a first gear ratio of 14.4:1 through to 0.73:1 in overdrive. Rear axles are Axle Tech STRC-1297 hub reduction (they’re the old Rockwell off-road model) with a final ratio of 9.59:1. The front axle is Rockwell FL941 rated at 9.1 tonne and the 295 mm deep chassis which has a far thicker web and flange than its highway cousins and features a full length double frame.
    These power trailer units have a Smith built body on the power-trans chassis (they’re the company who built the power trailer unit) and they’re fitted with either Cummins ISX or Signature engines rated at 450 and 500 horsepower. They are coupled to an Allison automatic transmission and tri-drive SISU hub reduction axles.
    The control of these trailers is via both a cab mounted hand throttle and married to the accelerator pedal. The advantage of this for instance is when the unit is climbing a hill the trailer can be set at full throttle and when the driver changes gear in the Kenworth C510 there is minimal road speed loss as the trailer is still pushing the unit.

    I'm a railroad locomotive type of guy but I must say, this is awesome. Trains are flatland creatures but it looks like these machines can handle hills just fine. Often saw three trailer cattle roadtrains going north when I lived in The Alice, but five was from a bygone era, plus they're lighter too, so nothing compared to this machine. Nicely done.

    'Trailers built by Smiths of Gympie'. When I was an electrical apprentice with Noel Andrews in Gympie in 1970 we did Smiths electrical work. Their 'factory' was basically a corrugated iron roof down the side of a hill. We used to joke that if they had flat ground to build a truck body on it'd be crooked. They turned out lovely stuff, they got flooded 2 or 3 times a year and Jimmy Smith was the best bloke you'd ever hope to meet. I was working in Gunpowder about 1975 and GCL was using Smiths side tippers. Great that they've moved on and up.

      Now please don't ask me what does EINKI SINKI mean. It might just floor you or you may find it very offensive. But it is comical as far as we BLACK people who went back to Africa are concerned. Yes I was taken to Africa when I was a child during the early 50s. The experience in Africa is the reason why I don't believe in everything that the media is saying about Africa. I was blessed to have the opportunity to attend the GREAT LIBRARIES OF TIMBUKTU, and study the various manuscripts and carvings in the mountains and caves in Africa. I even met the Emperor of Ethiopia in 1957.
      I strongly suggest that you take the time to visit LIBRARIES OF TIMBUKTU before it is completely destroyed.
      And yes TIMBUKTU really exists.

I also saw the kenworths in action out in the deserts of Saudi Arabia years ago, running out to the rigs. It was amazing that something so large could just seemingly float over the soft sand that much smaller vehicles struggled with. Its all in the tyres.

      Oh yeah and it's proper 2000ft/lbs actually available to the driver not Euro 720hp/2600ft/lbs (actually only available to the dyno for dick pulling purposes rather than load pulling). Those Euro trucks crack me up. I drove a 720hp Scania V8 recently and it had NOTHING and I mean that, NOTHING like the power the Signature in my 'ole truck has. Stupid Euro truck pulling a B-Double up a hill couldn't make more than 35 - 38km/h at 55t. At 60t my old unit goes up the same hill at 50+ km/h twice a day.
      With a single trailer my truck at 40+ tonnes goes up an 3rd direct in high range at about 1950rpm at 70-75km/h on a good day. I'm a company driver and I know what I'm talking about. I drive the same route twice a day.

      @@ThePaulv12...... The big difference between the EU & US engines, is that all the EU Truck engines are Under-square and the Cummins (& Cat) are Over-square. In layman's terms, that means that an Under-square engine's Stroke travel is less than the diameter of the bore.... just the opposite of the US Truck engines.
      The Longer (over-square) the stroke in relation to the bore diameter... the higher the piston speed per rpm, which equates to greater internal inertia which generates greater lugging or, "holding" ability for whatever amount of torque generated.
