SEQH launches world-first electric road trainFriday 30 May 2025 South East Queensland Hauliers (SEQH) has unveiled a world-first electric triple road train which will soon begin operations at the Port of Brisbane. The 53.5m Volvo FH-powered combination, believed to be the world’s biggest of its kind, will cart empty containers between the port and SEQH’s nearby base in Hemmant.The factory-built FH will go into work alongside SEQH’s new Volvo FM which will also cart empties as a 30.35m A-double when all the paperwork is signed off with the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR). SEQH Deputy Managing Director Nathan Craner told Big Rigs that both will run as singles in the interim but expects to have them up and running in their full capacity by the end of June. Speaking to guests at the official launch at Port of Brisbane on May 27, SEQH Managing Director Brett Plummer said the electric trucks are another example of SEQH’s core values of innovation, collaboration and partnership.
