With a substantial 235 trucks in attendance and 168 judged the Castlemaine Truck Show once again didn’t disappoint the trucking fraternity. Nights were spent having a few drinks looking at the truck lights, listening to the truck horns and the whips cracking until all hours of the morning. The days were spent polishing and cleaning trucks.

For some the polishing didn’t stop all night! It was a good show.
