Truck Dealerships

From Warragul
South Eastern Truck's. Volvo and UD.
Wood's & Reeve's. International and in Traralgon Inter & Western Star.
South Eastern was owned by Wood's & Reeve's.

I remember the ole man was drivin a blokes 3070 and it had a nice badge either side of the cab saying supplied by tauntons or similar then years later was workin with a fella who had a 4300 transtar with the same badge.

Pretty sure They say "TRAUTONS" And were from Goulbourn.

There's a few trucks that come into the Woolstores At Goulbourn,with that Badge...
I'll take a Photo next time I see One......

PS: Goulbourn Livestock transport(pale blue Volvos) is Owned By Fred Trauton,
Pretty sure there is a Connection between the Two.
Next time I see Fred I'll ask Him........
