Mining country, Cloncurry.

We have ended up in Cloncurry, the roadtrains are now 4 trailers long and are not cattle trains but mining hoppers now. They are massive! We followed one into town for about 20 klm and the back trailer seemed to do whatever the hell it wanted. Cool to watch, the signs out here warn not to overtake the roadtrains as they can exceed 50m long.

Having a day or two rest here as we are waiting for Mt Isa to empty of the cowboy folk that were there for the Rodeo. Be there in a day or two.
