It would seem that a "cattle hauler" might equally refer to a railroad car used for transporting livestock. *Livestock truck*, however, unambiguously refers to a truck, as does the Spanish term.

agree  Henry Hinds: Of course there's also "livestock hauler", but you're right about the "truck" part, it depends on the context (insufficient as always) so specifying "truck" might be necessary.
