This weekend has been the Road Transport Hall of Fame Annual Reunion. Another 48 trucking legends were inducted onto the Wall of Fame. It was a chance to celebrate the lives of those unsung heroes of the highway and honout those who have formed the backbone of the trucking industry in Australia as it grew.

The Hall of Fame also has an overwhelming collection of vintage trucks being added to every day as the volunteers restore them for exhibition. Here’s a small selection of some of them.

This ancient Inter is painted up McColls original colours.

Kenworth’s own Hall of Fame is also on site.

This is a heavily customised Foden.

Leyland also had a contender in the road train prime mover stakes in those days.
