Old Leyland long wheelbase truck.

These photos were posted on Facebook yesterday by Andy Wilson.

The truck and trailer were seen heading north at Narrandera on Wednesday and heading west at Trangie and Nevertire on Thursday with a single axle dolly behind it.. When it was seen at Nevertire on Friday it was heading back east and had a short van on the single axle dolly. These photos were not taken by the Dubbo people who saw it at Narrandera Trangie and Nevetire.

Does anyone know anything about it ?.

Yes that is a Leyland Buffalo that I last saw in Melbourne.

She was still heading North at Narrabri couple of days ago.

Jeffro,

Was it still a roadtrain with the van on the single axle dolly as the second trailer ?.

I seem to recall a couple of these old girls set up as cattle road trains in the Derby area of the Kimberley in the mid-60's. Would that be correct?

That's the one Swishy.

Remember them thundering past us (at 25 mph) as we built the road out to Fitzroy Crossing. The boss had a small aircraft and would just land on the road to talk to his boys.

Yes I think it was a two-trailer "A" train, I ran into it all the way up the Newell the other day.
Not as quick with the camera as Billy.
