It is very dark.
You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

Re: Tyre Fire.
Call in the Local VFRS but we all got stood down by the IC as the tyres, FULL Diesel tank (400Ltrs) and Hydraulic oil tank started exploding.

Re: Tyre Fire.
Philby- Looks like there are 2 separate incidents in those pics- the dumpy is facing different directions on the pit ramp in some pics . Wouldnt be Newman as they mine iron ore- these pics are from the goldfields or murchison somewhere.
Re: Tyre Fire.
Lower Lower Goldfields. Its the same truck.
