About TRN Group
TRN Group was formed in 1966, with just two trucks. At that time, the business hauled road-building materials. Within a short time, the company won a ten-year contract with a local earthmoving company.
In the 1970s, TRN Group bought three local cartage contractors, and became one of the area's largest coal-hauling sub-contractors. The company expanded its fleet, to include a scraper, a dozer, a loader and a traxcavator.
In 1989 TRN Group and two other companies formed Bulkhaul Limited, and won the contract for the cartage rights for coal in the Burragorang Valley. Bulkhaul Limited later became Heggies Bulkhaul Pty Ltd.
In 2000, having outgrown its original Camden location, TRN Group moved to larger premises at Glenlee.
