Tonka Toys at Mt Whaleback

Now these beasties are quite intimidating from this distance. Now imagine being behind them when they have a belly full of iron ore in them. I was in a big 4X4 and these were 10 feet in front of me going up a steep hill (a muddy one) and just the wheels were much taller than what I was in.

I think those steps in the background are 15M each!!!

The weirdest thing was the 4X4 had to have a really long bendy pole stuck on top of them so that these muthas didn’t squash them. When they spotted you behind them they pulled out so that you could undertake them, which was again a tad weird.

    Sorry I dont k now for certain. But looking at the step in the background which I am pretty sure was aroung 15M I think the trucks are up to 30ft high. Sorry for the crossed use of units.
