TONY KENT & PETER WAUGH: Shell Rimula Wall of Fame Inductees 2025
TONY KENT
Born in 1967 as one of sixteen siblings, TK moved out of home at 14 and, from there, he began his working journey with a travelling carnival, giving him the chance to explore New South Wales while learning about life on the road.
TK returned to Goulburn when his father fell ill, working as a driver and machine operator for R & P Delaney. His career took a turn while on holiday in Queensland, when he was offered a position with Divall’s.
In 2000, TK moved from driving to coordinating trucks and drivers, a role that grew alongside the business, and helped establish Goulburn Sand and Soil that same year. Even as Procurement Manager, TK remains ready to jump into a truck, demonstrating his enduring passion and hands-on commitment to the industry.
PETER WAUGH
Peter ‘Mingo’ Waugh was born in 1957 in Goulburn. His road transport career began in 1990 when he joined Divall’s, starting out on a Besser Brick L710, now proudly displayed in the Alice Springs Transport Hall of Fame Museum.
Over the years, Mingo drove a wide range of trucks, with a particular fondness for Kenworths. From T400s and T480s to T600s and T909s, he even restored and collected the iconic T600.
After leaving the driver’s seat in 2000, he transitioned into Occupational Health and Safety at Divall’s, helping the company achieve and maintain TruckSafe compliance.
Beyond his professional achievements, Mingo is a dedicated family man, famously rushing a fully laden truck to the hospital just in time for the birth of his second child with his wife Jacki.
