Leocata’s Transport expands fleet with a new Western Star to boost freight services between Melbourne and Sydney

At Leocata’s Transport, staying ahead means continually investing in the quality of our fleet—because better trucks mean better service. That’s why we’re excited to share the latest update from the depot: we’ve welcomed a new Western Star 48X to the team, helping us continue to deliver reliable freight services from Melbourne to Sydney.

Built for the road—and comfort

This powerhouse addition is more than just a workhorse. The Western Star 48X features a 48” sleeper cab, Detroit DT12 Auto transmission, and a 600 horsepower engine—making it ideal for the demands of long-haul freight across states.

It was purchased through Hartwig’s Shepparton, and we’d like to thank Simon Calogero, our sales rep, for his great service in helping us secure this standout unit.

But it’s not just what’s under the hood that counts—the sleeper cab is decked out for comfort, with a microwave, TV, and a Coolabah air conditioner and heater, making those overnight rests on the road that much more manageable.

Safety and performance on every journey

Modern safety features are a priority for us, and this new Western Star doesn’t disappoint. With active cruise control and lane departure warning systems, we’re ensuring our drivers stay safe and supported on every run—whether navigating city traffic or cruising down the Hume Highway.

Driver Craig is already putting the new truck to the test and had one simple review: “Loves his new ride.” That kind of feedback means everything to us.

Supporting reliable freight services from Melbourne to Sydney

Fleet updates like this one are more than just shiny new equipment—they’re part of our ongoing commitment to delivering consistent, safe, and efficient freight services between Melbourne and Sydney. Whether it’s general freight, palletised loads, or time-sensitive cargo, we’re always looking for ways to improve how we serve our clients.

Looking forward, driving further

This new truck is a clear sign of where Leocata’s Transport is heading: forward. We’re proud to continue investing in both technology and people to ensure we remain one of the most dependable choices for freight along the Melbourne to Sydney corridor.
