ROAD TRAIN IV OUTBACK ODYSSEY 2001

Dear Viewer
Outback Odyssey is the fourth road train video in the series. I filmed these stories in 2001.
Please note there are two stories in this program that you may have seen before on the Long Highway Channel - the VRD cattle lift in the NT and the Channel Country cattle lift in far Western Queensland. Apologies for the duplication, however this version shows the context in which these stories were first published 20 years ago.
CONTENT:
2:22: CATTLE LIFT AT VICTORIA RIVER DOWNS is a story filmed in the wild west of the Northern Territory showing Road Trains of Australia at work.
17:29: TRUCKIES' REUNION: We travel to the annual Truckies' Reunion at the National Road Transport Hall of Fame and see a classic collection of beautifully restored B-Model Macks.
23;21: ROAD TRAINS TO CENTURY ZINC MINE: At the turn of the Century, Butts Haulage, based in the North West Queensland town of Cloncurry, was riding the big wave of the resources boom.
33:52: CHANNEL COUNTRY CATTLE LIFT: Ballard Transport has been hauling cattle for many decades. In this story we load cattle deep in the Channel Country not far from Birdsville and haul the cattle over rough Outback tracks to the rail head at Longreach.
49:14: MUTTON MILERS: While at Longreach we join transport operator, Dave Bielenberg, a gentle giant of a man and load and haul multiple decks of sheep - a job that needs a huge amount of patience.

Enjoy the program, stay safe wherever you might be, Bruce (Honeywill)
