I've led a convoy of 30 4-metre-wide dump trucks over a busy 2-lane road between Basrah and Baghdad many years ago - and without any sort of 'warning' escort, no 'wide load' signs, no yellow lights, ... and not a single accident! And some years later, 15 of them were following my 'civilian' Land Cruiser from Baghdad to the Aqaba port!
Neil Petersen Gday. The closest train to where the trucks are , would be 1000km away. So what do they do when the train gets to the end of the line, they use trucks.
another boy with a cupboard full of toy trains , trains are antiquated old mate , there is not one thing associated with rail that was not on a truck first , the dozer that clears the corridor , the excavator that digs the bridge crossings out , the pillons , the bridge beams , the ballast , the rail even the track laying machine , the carriages , the locco , the freight to go on and off the train , the fuel , the food . So I think that really shows how much rail relies on trucks , oh and by the way the roughest piece of road you will find is the rail way crossings
And if you got out on the highways where road trains run, you will find they are some of the best roads in the country. It's a myth that trucks wreck roads.Just another city guy complaining!

1 train can carry hundreds of these and won't wreck our roads

yeh thats why most of our roads are fucked
And trucks are cheaper
