142. David and Andrew Derham - Derham's Transport
Copy Southbound Podcast
We managed to get down to Lara and catch up with father and son, David and Andrew Derham. Their transport business is well known in the area with their fleet of tippers a common sight on the highways in the Melbourne area, but it’s the beautiful restorations that have caught Bruce’s eye for years and the renovation on Davids original cabover Kenworth was just the start of a line up that’s still coming together. Dave’s story of his modest growth and smart business sense is a great example of what can be done with a lot of hard work and a little bit of luck.

141. Durkin's Thorpdale
Copy Southbound Podcast
Thorpdale is synonymous with potato cartage and the Durkin name is right amongst it. With Michael Durkin kicking off the transport business on the family farm, he was known for some pretty flash gear for the era. His son Kelly now heads the trucking side with a full family affair making this business tick along nicely. A few of Bruce’s favourite trucks reside in the fleet so it’s a wonder he’s not still down there!

140. Norm & Nola Bransgrove
Copy Southbound Podcast
One of the nicest things about doing Copy Southbound is the terrific people we meet who share our passion for our transport industry. Bruce had the opportunity to sit with Norm and Nola Bransgrove, something they’d bee trying to organise for some time and discovered the most genuine people and family network that anyone could hope for. Through plenty of ups and a family tragedy, this loving couple managed to survive by having an absolute love for each other and for what they do. Needless to say, Bruce was touched by the entire family, their attention to detail, their lobbying for a better...

139. Wayne Shegog
Copy Southbound Podcast
Bruce has known Wayne for many years through the vintage truck scene, admiring Wayne’s stunning and well-travelled needle nosed Kenworth that frequents events everywhere. Wayne has had a long career in the trucking industry and has piloted some unique machines over the years. At the recent ATHS show in Maffra, Chappo suggested Bruce and Wayne have a quick chat on the podcast so 5 odd hours later it was over! A hilarious interview with a definite character

138. Chris ‘Squeeker’ Overend
Copy Southbound Podcast
The Overend name is legendary in the East Gippsland area of Victoria so it was fitting that Bruce was finally able to catch up with Chris ‘Squeeker’ Overend. Squeeker is well known in transport circles due to his family heritage along with his ownership of one of three iconic Australian produced V12 W Model Kenworth’s. To capture the story of Overend Transport along with Squeeker’s exploits throughout the years was something we’ve been waiting for and we are sure you’ll enjoy it as much as we have
info_outlineYou’d have to be driving with your eyes closed not to notice a sea of red and white up and down the east coast of Australia. Starting back in the 50’s by Tom and Peter Lindsay, Lindsay Brothers had a permanent presence on our highways up until they became Lindsay Australia in 2002. This interview is with Peter Lindsay’s daughter Tracey who is heavily invested in keeping the memory of her father and uncle alive by organising reunions for the old drivers and recognising them for who they are – heroes of the highways. A great chat with an enthusiastic advocate for the way it used to be.
