Road Train Across Australia - Newcastle to Port Hedland - Part 1 

Amazing, amazing, AMAZING channel Johnno! Just found it and now subscribed. Mate this is the second one of yours I’ve watched and your production is exquisite! Was expecting an “Outback Truckers” type of channel (which I really like by the way that’s why I checked it), but yours are that combined with an Aussie travel show really, and the best damn travel show I’ve seen since Alby Mangels was tearing around. You leave every single over-produced, starlet-featuring commercial TV travel show in your dust mate. Am loving what you’re doing, and having travelled extensively around the country myself through work and leisure, I’m enjoying the memories of the highways and towns you show. Takes me back and makes me very happy! Cheers mate!

Yourself and homeless are by far the best content in the world for truckin mate . I watch a lot of the US guys and English but you guys take it to a different level .

Your videos just get better and better mate. Thank you

Thank you SO much Johnno for the wonderful video of the Town History and trip to Port Hedland. Stay Safe mate.

DunnyDoo is a lovely place!

Fantastic photography Jonno, really appreciate you sharing Australia 🇦🇺

Johno, I think this is one of the most beautiful places on earth👍👍👍

Superb, now for part II... :)

Looking forward to seeing parts 2 and 3 and possibly 4, excellent, Ken may get jealous. Ray.

Thank you so much Johnno

G'day Johnno, I had a load of roofing etc for the Dunedoo Hotel, and by the time the trailer was unloaded it was dinner time, and I had to drive back to Bathurst. The landlord come in and have dinner on me before you go, like you discovered, it was the best pub dinner I've had! Like your videos, now I'm retired they get me back in the cab. Stay safe,shiny side up!

Wow. Wow. Wow. Loved this Johnno. The drone footage was breathtaking particularly at the end over Bunda Cliffs. Can’t wait for the next episode. Thank you for sharing your journey and your trucking life. ❤

I love seeing Australia with you bunjie, thank you for taking us all along, stay safe brother!!!

Beaut! 👍

That's a shocker driving straight into the sun Johnno

Deepest sympathy for the loss of life in the accident Johno. Stay safe mate. That piece of music played over the drone footage on the coast was fantastic, love it mate.

Another fantastic ride, beautiful country, stay safe and have a great day.

It's a very diverse and wonderful country we live in Johnno. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Looking forward to the next part of the journey. Stay safe.👍

Great video, thanks mate

Fantastic, thanks for sharing.

That barra looked so good, and I'll have to try those oysters at Ceduna one day for sure. What a glorious country. Pretty damn good, John. Thank you so much, you awesome truckies, who invite us along to enjoy the ride right across this beautiful continent. I am so grateful. May you have many, many more safe miles ahead of you. I pay my respects to the truckies who lost their lives on this trip and my condolences to their families and to the whole trucking community who lost one of their own, who work so hard covering the kay's to try keep this country running. I dip my hat to all of you. 🧢👍🏽🇦🇺

The best way to see Australia . Love the videos . Thank you for the effort from the Uk.

AWESOME...Thanks Johnno,I have recently discovered your channel which has also led me to 'the homeless trucky'. What a privilege to be able to travel across this great land with you guys. Appreciate the work you do. Thankyou

Fantastic work, thx a lot! :)

Great stuff Johnno, bring on part 2 👍🇦🇺

Great content...very entertaining.

Thank you Johno, wonderful video 👏👏

Bloody brilliant mate.

another great adventure , well done johnno.

Thanks for taking the time to entertain us 👍

Another rippa Johno. Love watching them. Keep them coming. Thanks. 👍👍

Thanks Johnno for another great video. Safe travels and take care

Thanks for giving up your time and showing us this great, great big country Johno we understand you get paid by the km, very humble of you. Tony

Excellent trip enjoyed it immensely. Thanks for the great content. Safe travels mate.

Nice video, great shots

A gourmet truckie!!! Love it!!

A really great video. it gives me itchy feet to go back on the road.

Thanks for sharing another entertaining video. The photography is amazing. Thoroughly enjoyed the travelogue aspect. Safe travels.

Thank you so much for the wonderful video and great content. I truly enjoy watching you travel across Australia. Watching on the big screen from Kentucky.

Great video again Johnno! Thanks mate. Healthy eating travel tip if you're interested. Pre trip buy all the ingredients you think you need for salads, ham, chicken as well... then at night time peel and slice them all up into a container ready for a grazing pack to have while you're driving along. Dinner time, I used to pull up and get out of the fridge individual or portioned steak, chops, sausages etc which the local butcher had vacuumed sealed for me, cut up some fresh salads, quick fry up on the portable gas stove, cut up tomorrows grazing pack....

Quite intresting mate thumbs ups

Another great episode closer to home (newcastle) this time great photos and drone shots once again. Take care

You are like Ken,,, a machine, keep up the great video’s 👍safe travels mate

Always enjoy your videos Jono, but this one was particularly good. Great shots and a bit of history. Gotta love the Bunda cliffs. Fantastic. Thank you!

Great as always 👍

32.09 looks like a stick man climbing the cliffs yup Im nuts !!!!!!!!

That was so good

Great video Johnno ! Loved seeing the towns and commentary of the history along the way! Really great to see the changing landscape from the truck. Bunda cliffs look mesmerising and great drone footage! I wouldnt get too close to the edge though! Look forward to Part 2. Thank you!

Hello,a beautiful long route

Wow so impressive

Cheers buddy for helping me while away the afo with some great shots an commentary. Stay safe n travel well. The Ol' Fella Greg.🤎

Awesome video Johno, some cracking drone shots there mate, safe travels ahead!

Great video Johno 👍

My condolences Johno🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Mate every video u make u just inspire me to drive road train myself

Great video johno .😊

Hey Johnno awesome awesome awesome magnificent. Roll on part 2 .

Thanks

You Guys do a Great job.Regards the Kiwi

Great video mate, your videos are getting better and better. Loved the focus on Dunedoo. My Grand Father ran the Dunedoo freezing works way back in the 1930s and my Mum was born there in 1935. We visited the town just 3 weeks ago to have a look around. Great country town with good parking for heavy vehicles. Looking forward to part 2 of your trip.

You have super videos , hi level production ...Congratulations from Belgrade, Serbia.

I had lunch at that pub in Dunedoo a few weeks ago. A good feed!!

G'day Johnno, Thanks for taking us along again , was a nice run . The fish & oysters looked pretty good. You do better to get ya salad at the local fruit shop ,keep it in a Tupperware container , fresher cheaper ,so nice fruit. Respect....!

very good video my mate ❤👍 i will see more about on road-Train 🚚Adventures in future in Australia 🚚Greeting from Denmark

love your videos matey,,hello from ENGLAND

Great video Jonno, especially once you got west of port Augusta, I have never been out there.

Another great Vlog, you give excellent commentary, and those history notes about the towns you pass through are fantastic, I can see a secondary occupation as a tour driver/ tour guide to our o/s visitors,& eating on the road is hard to get value for money, great music selection too, love your work Johnno,cheers from Downunder ❤️🦘🦘🦘🇦🇺

Ripper video again Johnno, heading across to WA in a few weeks from Phillip Island for 3 mths. Will keep a eye out for you.

Salads, call into a supermarket, prepackaged, prepare prior to driving, and trays of cakes, slices, fruit, Health food section find healthy snack bars. Set up a small fridge or Esky in the truck. Spend the savings on disposable cutlery. Sandwiches, or rolls buy at the supermarket, cold meat, and salad mix, Sandwich bags or cling wrap, buy water and drinks. The time it takes to wait for service, you can prepare the food yourself. Hot cooked meal can be cheaper at lunch times pubs or clubs, in the country towns. Portable tables and chairs come in all shapes and sizes these days, for meal preparation. As a traveller i also pack a small gas burner, for making hot drinks myself..

good video, but when you say iron knob is just a hole in the ground , dont forget it was the beginning of australias steel industry and still being used today, also iron knob and whyalla is where the comedian billy connelly discovered the true australian culture, sadly the original iron knob pub burnt to the ground many years ago.

New sub here, loved it!

👌 Beautiful Australian 😍

Thanks for the ride. I'm in the U.S., but always wanted to go to Australia, never was able. At least I get to see some of it thanks to you. I watch a trucker here if he's driving he's streaming live called ride along. we have a few Australian's who watch. Safe travels Thanks again ----- Desert Rat

JOHN'O. This vlog is next level , I don't know if ure going to be able to top it , ps keep doing what ure doing , garented the viewers abroad are falling out of there seats , wow young fella , next level is an understatement .😁👉👍✌️

another great video, we did the bight on our bike but wished we had stopped at the Bunda cliffs and used our drone your photography is fantastic!!

The portrait of Winx, Chris Waller and Hugh Bowman was done by a very well respected equine artist formerly from Dubbo but now living in Dorrigo, Peter Mortimore - I know Peter very well as he was a client of my dad’s workshop until he moved to Dorrigo

Amazing. You do better than any TV program. Even dos Ken @The Homeless trucky. Was lucky to see his vid. Cant wait til part two. Then heading north to Darwin? Seems to be floding problems last week on the road to Darwin.

Another good one Johnno. Nice wrap on Dunedoo, I have been through there e few times, it’s a good little town. We are just back from a trip to SA Peninsulas and came back through Deni, Wagga and the Southern Highlands. Didn’t see your yard though. I thought I hadn’t been to Deni before but discovered I had many years ago. Great drone work at the Bunda Cliffs. Jeff

Been through Dunn E Doo a lot Johno 😁

Nice one Johnno. I'm on day 9 with the throat and snot thing. After day 4 it wasn't to bad. Half the Toll drivers went home on sick leave with it, so all us subbies had to cover for then as usual.' I stopped at the cliffs a few times back when I was in my Louisville (a while ago ) I'll be glad to get back on the fish.

Great video , drone shots . You bought back memories of our road trip to Adelaide through them towns you travelled . I was planning on staying at Wilcannia years ago on a solo motorcycle trip , and i was telling a bloke at work before i left home . He said Wilcannia ? and i said yes , he then told me in depth about the place , and he told me to stay at SILVERTON HOTEL instead , so i took his advice , Safe travels

Johno, them cows seem to have a mind of their own. Looks like they think they own the road.😂😂😂

You’ve traverse so much of this great land mate and it looks fantastic on film, I feel like pulling the plug and heading west

Love your videos as well as homeless videos you guys are amazing keeping Australia moving. Ps a big thumbs up from Perth WA

G'day Johno, Working Saturday beautiful day in Melbourne. Great video thoroughly enjoyed it & mate licking my lips looking at those oysters. Stay safe out on the road plenty of naf nuts out there. Catch in Melbourne sometime soon. Cheers Louis Kats 👍

Geez I wouldn’t want to be driving round those cliffs at night 🫣

Johnno "down under" next you will be doing "getaway " love it keep it up

👍Thankyou and sincere best wishes for your channel johno,liked subscribed and very much enjoyed,thanks to you and Brad another Aussie truckie on RU-vid,I'm getting to share the heaven on earth,views of Australia,outstanding 10/10,good on yer from the UK.Trucking itsin the blood.🤟😊

Brilliant video so far Johnno, looking forward to Part 2. Hungry Jacks, what no Oportos out there lolol. Cliffs stunning, will hopefully see them in October. How cool is that trip, i'd love every part of it. Oh and last of all thank you 😊😊😊

Your editing skill have stepped up a notch or 3... If it wasn't for cops like Geoff I would have jumped back in the cab

Haha Geoff has got quite a few of us from yunta

Hey Mate, Love your content. Only been following for a few months. Drive Safe and if you ever stop overnight at the Cappi give us a holla. Show you the best spots for food in Newman. Pete

Great video mate. I reckon those cows were north of Pretty Pine, could be wrong though. I haven’t been to Dunedoo for a few years but that parking bay is one of the better ones and there was a good little cafe over the road with a decent shower last time I was there. Quiet parking bays are few and far between once you leave Newcastle.

As you say the show must go on,as a trucker partner I feel for you all,rain hail snow wind sun you bloke have it all,we all know the famous saying ,get some lemon and hot water honey,instead of coffee,eat garlic with all food or on it own,if my partner comes home and smell like garlic,I know he being a bit sick,he hard to kiss smelling like a garlic paddock 😂,good video.

The best brekky and coffee I had last time from Queensland to WA was at Nevertire rural traders. Who’d a thought it?

The accident was bad rip to the familes involved in I just had some oyster from Cowell I love oyster good with wolchter sauce

Fantastic views the towns seem nice places to visit, sorry about goat I’m assuming they are wild it’s very flat after Port Augusta. Sad news about the head on accident and sadly loss of lives, the downside of trucking or adventures people make on roads in Australia everyday.😢 Nearly missed the end, at the Quarantine Station and the Journey to Norsmen. Don’t look down Johnno, till part 2😊

Got to live the cows lol

Buy some fruit, orange's, banana's to supplement the oily meals,anyway good show,well done!?????

John Rabig does that particular run regularly
