Thank for including the train too. Several years ago I was on a southbuound passenger train and a little after Barnawatha ( while we a doing about the 115KM/H limit we go into Emergency ( brake) and as we rapadly slow down, dust a huge dust cloud appeared ,I knew we'd hit somthing. Fortunatly the driver of the truck we hit was out of the wrecked cab, he'd been rear ended by another truck and ended up on the track. ( probbably a good 20 mintes before) Despite the fact that the place was allready crawling with police and SES, nobody thought to send a guy up the railway a KM in both directions till contact with train controllers was made. If it were me I'd offer the line some protection within 3 minutes of arriving on the scene.
This must have been over seas I have never seen so many left hand exits, and I have been driving for over ten years in the USA. Great video Keep them coming. I love to see road trucks
Thanks mate. Having traveled between Sydney and Melbourne many times on the Hume in a car over the past 20 or so years, even before the days of speed limiters, in my experience most (999/1000) truckers are polite, and responsible road sharers. I nothing but great respect for them - especially after watching them park a B double back up to a dock! Thanks for the vid, and the rock n roll :-)
Excellent drivers on highway in Aussie! No road rages! Better than insane drivers on bad road ragers!!!!!! Cool to drive on road trains!! I'll an trucker in the future. Friendly atmosphere!!
Dude. Hello from Canada. Love your video. Love seeing them LCV's. I know driving with a speed limiter sucks. Probably 100 km/h. I've got a dashboard cam too. Yes; I admit; even my night vision cam sucks. Takes a lot of balls to put a night vision on a Hume Highway compilation. I was on the Hume Hwy in Victoria once. Was there on holiday; visiting friends. I had to catch a flight to Sydney. A truckee friend in a nearby town of Melbourne offered me a ride. I declined. I regret.
excellent video Fullnoise music sets it off really well, my brotherinlaw drives B Doubles between Adelaide and Perth . I recently travelled from Sydney to Whyalla via the Hume Highway I was dreading it as it was my first time on that road, I found it an excellent drive
I like those new Kenworth K100 Cab Overs and Frieghtliner Argosys. Too bad they don't have as much of them here in the United States. Majority of tractors here are Conventionals.
I remember travelling up the Hume in the early 60's with my parents going camping, trucks were so slow back then and the Hwy basically single lane, now a retired truckie that has driven today's not so slow beasts
And here I was thinking Fullnoise was relative to your preference of George Thorogood PMSL ;) Thnx for uploading... it's been 20+yrs since I've seen the Hume from the passenger seat. Good to see there's still some old school truckers out there!!!
single lane sesame street would have been more risky fun in the old days jarred up and full bore , nowadays it is good to see more blokes live longer along that track!
At 3:04 I'm suprised the train was going so fast, he must of been between mud hole restrictions !! Nice clip. I haven't seen those new Lindsay trailers yet.
We have a pair of loons here in the UK wanting to use Doubles. They have even built one each to try an prove thier point to DoT. As a wagon driver of over 20yrs experiance I think they should take thier heads out in the yard for a wobble. If you have ever been to the UK & seen what its like to make a living with a truck on our roads you,d agree with me 100%.. great vid BTW.. Drive safe.
That was good mate! I think the USA blokes watching would be pullin em selves over our doubles and trains.haha!!! a bit full noise gear changes or engine braking edited into clip will make your next video even better!!!
great vid mate, love your vids. will be good in 2 years time when its freeway all the way on the hume. will be even better if that massive truck stop south of the cutta is built.
FN - Nice to just sit here and admire the fine machinery. I drive the 'Fume Highway' every week in a KW T409 (last years model), and it is very tall. I noticed your cam position seems very elevated above the height of the neigboring trucks (or is just the effect of the wide ange lens). Keep pushin' the KW 'cause its Far-Kenworth-It.
There are some triple drive trucks (3 axles at the rear of the truck) in Australia, and many trailers with triple axles. Some operators even have triple dollies between the trailers to cincrease the load capacity further
Most Australian Drivers hardly ever encounter a Road Train, but I live in Taperoo and around here Road Trains are about 20 times more frequent than Buses.
i think truckies are the most misunderstood people ever, they cop so much shit from people who have no idea what its actually like to drive a truck i mean HEY im only 17 and have never drove one but iv rode in one for work experience with my friend and it was a real eye opener just to see my mates dad drive with a digger on the back just watching him cycle through all those gears really was amazing to watch. and dont get me started on the distances they drive. peace out bro
Love this video, recognise all the areas and had to laugh when you went on the Ring road and it was all jammed up; like usual. Are they ever gonna finish the roadworks on the Ring Road, or is it a 30 year plan? Lots of nice trucks, and loved reading of you slowing down when other trucks pass you; that's courteous professional driving at its best.
Hold on a sec now i have driven the Hume for many years now please correct me if i'm wrong but i remember there being a hell of a lot more road kill laying around lol and at some points the road is just red or orange from all the roo and wombat blood lol or did you guys give it a clean lol.
Fuel usage depends on the type of trailers, HP of the truck and weight, road and weather conditions (windy etc) and driving style. You can get anything between 1.8 to 2.2 kilometres to the litre, so an average trip from Melbourne to Sydney will be around 450 litres. Considering the amount of weight moved, these trucks are very efficient. Cheers, FN
Just like how some people like seeing classic cars, many truck drivers have the sam passion for trucks around them. Not all truck footage has to be about crashes, the point of this video is the other trucks around him
Thought it'd be harder to Drive a Truck but it aint once you get used to it I find it no harder then a car just have to leave bigger gaps etc (in the process of getting my HR from a standard car license now done 2x 4 hour lessons to date + once done in 12 months when eligable I'll up it to the MC) As Without Trucks Australia Stops, Love Trucks Love Driving so it only seems logical to get into that Career (some say it's more of a passion then a career) Keep on Trucking

I remember riding with my dad many years ok in a KW and as a boy thought I was on top of the world. Thanks for the clip, brings back memories.
Great stuff.Did my first Hume run in 79.Different highway back then.
100km/h or 62m/h, still quick enough with weight, not like in the USA, only 80,000 or 36t, we left that behind in the 70's. Great video, well done

Looks to be Australia
It's over the Hume Hwy actually.
Great video, wonderful scenery!
Safe driving and keep on truckin'!!
Hope to drive the Hume someday
Beautiful country, Amazing trucks, trucks looks diferent

Great filming and editing FullNoise. A job in the television industry awaits you. Fantastic.

Trucking in the Outback is a truckers' dream come true. Better lane discipline and no road rage. And a wide expanse of landscapes as a reward.
Top stuff Fullnoise !....I start to get a the horn at 0:16....... all the way to the end. Yeee harr !
been there done that i drove for about 25 years looks good for 4 minutes
Thanks for a fantastic video.. Our a tympat page on Facebook love this mate
. Well done
. Love it!!! ❤️❤️
Awsome video, that got the blood stiring.
Awesome i love trucks especially the jake brake sounds Choice
what an awsome looking bit of road and country. bet it would be your high light of the trip haha
The music was awesome! So was the video. 👍🏻 from a Texas trucker
Once again, excellent excellent work Full Noise ! Perfect editing 10/10.
And a great tune to go with it.
And here I was thinking Fullnoise was relative to your preference of George Thorogood PMSL ;) Thnx for uploading... it's been 20+yrs since I've seen the Hume from the passenger seat. Good to see there's still some old school truckers out there!!!
Some beautiful machinary there (and big dollars). Nice work FN. I enjoyed the ride.
the scene with the train running along beside you is the best shot! wo hoo!
1:25 that same DRT truck comes near my work once a week love that truck deffs a eye baller ;)
you guys have all the cool equipment in Australia !!! most we get here in the USA is double 53 foot combinations.
+Justin La Porte If you think these are cool then do an image search for Australian Road Train. They're the big boys of freight hauling.
+MrBlewvane ok I will
single lane sesame street would have been more risky fun in the old days jarred up and full bore , nowadays it is good to see more blokes live longer along that track!
At 3:04 I'm suprised the train was going so fast, he must of been between mud hole restrictions !! Nice clip. I haven't seen those new Lindsay trailers yet.
This is pro! I cogged em for a few years and it makes me want to go back into it. The music is spot on. Nice work, stay safe.
Those are some nice machines that you have manged to catch - like the Blue TRT Tomato truck @1.25 - nice colors.
I like how the music fits the whipers at 0:43 and the moment the trucks in the oncoming lane disappear from screen matching with the music at 3:40
I love this video, watched it so many times.

Ah, the 'Doom Die-way'. Looks better these days.

B Doubles being trialed in the UK next year... Thats gonna be fun.
You guys do a great job. Nice vid. Cheers.

I will be travelling on the Hume Highway next week for my grade 6 Canberra camp and I’m pretty sure I’ve never been on the Hume Highway
There are some triple drive trucks (3 axles at the rear of the truck) in Australia, and many trailers with triple axles. Some operators even have triple dollies between the trailers to cincrease the load capacity further
truck drivers major respect to you's keep australia rolling
Thanks man :) This is cool^^ And I like your description LOL (sorry for spelling)
Most Australian Drivers hardly ever encounter a Road Train, but I live in Taperoo and around here Road Trains are about 20 times more frequent than Buses.
Hume Highway..also known by its 80's nickname "Sesame Street"
Ol' Sesame Street...where all the girls and boys come out to play!
Great clips, perfect song, thank you.
u just passed another Linfox.... well done
i think truckies are the most misunderstood people ever, they cop so much shit from people who have no idea what its actually like to drive a truck i mean HEY im only 17 and have never drove one but iv rode in one for work experience with my friend and it was a real eye opener just to see my mates dad drive with a digger on the back just watching him cycle through all those gears really was amazing to watch. and dont get me started on the distances they drive.

Great clips
Looks like you have been out of town for a bit ... much better than dealing with the Western Ring Road.
Great stuff bud.
Hold on a sec now i have driven the Hume for many years now please correct me if i'm wrong but i remember there being a hell of a lot more road kill laying around lol and at some points the road is just red or orange from all the roo and wombat blood lol or did you guys give it a clean lol.

How heavy can you run without being pulled over
Hahaha you flew past that poor daf with a pod on top of it
Sweet vid mate thanks.
Great video thanks
Drive this road every few months.. nice video.
Top stuff mate !
Many thanks for prompt reply,
Regards,
AMAZING VID MATE
Nice video mate!
Just like how some people like seeing classic cars, many truck drivers have the sam passion for trucks around them. Not all truck footage has to be about crashes, the point of this video is the other trucks around him
great video.
great clip!
very clear videos
It's a very nice clip. What's a camera?
Just wanted to ask what is this video about/for? Im not hating on It but It just seems to be yourself driving in a truck?
Gday mate. I havent been down the cutta in a while. Do you know what have they been up to with the road works?
Do you guys talk to each other?because when im in my 4wd i hear you guys over the radio all the time and i hear some wierd stuff sometimes
Loved it!
Finally some good music on a yoo choob clip
And he ain't referring to 95 kph, only mph really does it 😵💫🥰
notice at 2:06 you flashed your headlights to signal its safe to pull into the left line :) i do that all the time for the trucks
great clip great song :)
random question: are any road trains with 6x2 tractor units instead of tandem drives?
Keep the videos coming Kiddo....
@Rocketboy1950 Thats what I was thinking. I thought they were spaced 3 km's apart.
Thought it'd be harder to Drive a Truck but it aint once you get used to it I find it no harder then a car just have to leave bigger gaps etc (in the process of getting my HR from a standard car license now done 2x 4 hour lessons to date + once done in 12 months when eligable I'll up it to the MC) As Without Trucks Australia Stops, Love Trucks Love Driving so it only seems logical to get into that Career (some say it's more of a passion then a career) Keep on Trucking
Do you signal each other at night when you overtake so the other guys know he can come back into the left lane?
jan585 yes then they flash thier high beams to say you pull back in
@sydneyfcanddascc actually near wodonga, old barnawartha rd and mckoy st
