Fill being trucked from 8km away, carving away at a hillside. 12 trucks working all daylight hours. Pity the people living on their route, seems having a quiet muffler/exhaust on a tip truck is out of fashion.
There's a tip truck on this pic, just to left of last tree I think this would be a standard 5 cu m truck.
