Heavy haulage heroes

Hauling a massive 200-tonne Hitachi mining excavator is all in a day’s work for Mactrans Heavy Haulage’s Western Australian crew Athol and Robbo.

The ROADBOSS team – including Deputy Editor Harrison Hunkin and videographer Jake Ashe – joined the heavy haulage veterans as they transported the over-sized machine from an embattled coal mine near Collie to Perth.

Check out the epic video capturing all the blood, sweat and tears involved as the duo made mince meat of this mammoth logistical challenge – with a few hitches along the journey!
