* North Territory - Hundreds of truckies head to Alice Springs for long-awaited reunion
-- Hundreds of truck drivers and the long-haul vehicles they love have taken to the streets of Alice Springs for a parade showcasing decades of Australia's road transport history... Every five years a truckies' reunion is held in Alice Springs, home of the National Road Transport Hall of Fame, culminating in an hours-long procession of grunting, lovingly restored machines down the Stuart Highway... Up to 10,000 people are estimated to have turned up in the town for the event... "Every five years we come to Mecca, to the Hall of Fame," second-generation earth-mover Barry Goldspring, from Adelaide, said... Such is the stuff truck dreams are made of, and they are on display in every blinding chrome detail and restored engine on parade...
