About this word search
The Road train is about as Australian as transport gets, a prime mover hauling several trailers along the long highways of the outback. Here it shares the page with the Double-decker, the Gondola of Venice and the Rickshaw.
Expect vehicles heading in every one of the eight directions, reversing included. Container ship, Steam train and Sailing boat appear as single strings, and Double-decker loses its hyphen. Seaplane, Speedboat and Submarine all start with S, so check the next letter or two before circling.
Older students can follow up by choosing one vehicle and finding out roughly when it first came into use.
