Where Tracks Disappear: Australia's Deadliest Desert Roads

Video summary

Press to jump

2:58Ross guides his road train across a narrow causeway over the Coleman River.
4:28Damaged tire rubber forces a roadside change in intense heat, with spare tires running low.
5:40Deep bull-dust holes make the track difficult for Ross's loaded road train.
8:11An engine alarm on the empty return run leads Ross to a broken electrical wire.
15:02Steve's Great Central Road journey encounters a dust storm, followed by rain and lightning.
18:55Steve discovers a broken trailer torque rod and crawls underneath with hand tools.

Ross Carriage has a road train called "The Dusty Inn" and a frank assessment of his apprenticeship: "I thought I knew a lot about trucks till I started coming up here and I knew absolutely nothing about trucks at all."

His North Queensland run opens "Where Tracks Disappear: Australia's Deadliest Desert Roads," the most-watched of Outback Truckers' four new uploads. It has drawn about 44,000 views. Ross negotiates a narrow causeway, changes a damaged tire in fierce heat and pushes through deep bull dust before an electrical fault adds another roadside job on the return journey.

Steve Grahame brings experience, his dog Bella and no illusions about the Great Central Road. Dust gives way to rain and lightning, then a broken trailer torque rod sends him underneath the rig with hand tools. His question to Bella, "Most people don't have an office like this, do they Bella?", catches the peculiar appeal of the show: magnificent surroundings, decidedly inconvenient working conditions.

Repairs connect much of the week's schedule. "Worst Breakdowns Threatening Truckers' Livelihoods | Back to Back FULL EPISODES" includes Michael King's chemical haul and Lindsey Burke moving bees. The newest collection, "Outback Bush Mechanics: Extreme Roadside Fixes," ranges from wheel-bearing trouble to cooling-system failures. It is already the channel's second-busiest upload by daily views, behind the desert-roads episode; the previous week's "Stranded in the Desert: Ultimate Big Haul Rescues" also remains active.

The subscriber count held steady while the channel added roughly 375,000 views, a weekly audience close to those of Monk and The Good Place. Everybody Loves Raymond had a much larger viewing week nearby. Here, the distinctive attraction was the work itself: getting the load through, then finding a way to get the truck home.
