Qube, LTR's contractor for the transport could be rolling out electric road trains at some point. THey have already converted one for Oz Minerals.

They reported 2023 progress:

"WORLD FIRST PARTNERSHIP HELPING TO MAKE ELECTRIC VISION A REALITY
Qube was also delighted to partner with OZ Minerals and Janus Electric, in a trial of the world’s first electric triple road train. Through the Vision Electric project, Janus Electric has converted a diesel truck owned by Qube into an electric truck, which will provide decarbonised on-road logistics support to OZ Minerals’ Carrapateena operations and shipping in South Australia. It uses a powerful renewable battery which can be exchanged in five minutes and is
designed to meet the heavy hauling requirements of the mining industry. The vehicle is capable of transporting minerals up to 400km on a single charge, and is identical to a regular diesel-powered truck in relation to the weight it can pull and its horsepower. The vehicle’s conversion cost a total of $200,000 -
equivalent to the cost of rebuilding a diesel engine - demonstrating the financial viability of technology like this. This partnership is a key step in addressing emissions reduction in the heavy transport and resources industries.

Qube Plans for 2024:

"Electric prime mover trial in FY24 to investigate commercial feasibility for Qube’s operations."

"Investigating commercial feasibility of retrofitting existing diesel triple road train with battery technology for trial with several customers in the Pilbara region of WA"
