Of highways and railways

The Rail-Road Vehicle is a new breed of freight-liner trucks. How are they different? They run on more than just roads! These massive metallic creatures are capable of hitching themselves to each other and running on rails, like a goods train.

Obviously, they come with two sets of wheels, one for the asphalt, and one for the rails. This may be fictional, but think about how it can massively alter the transportation industry. If one vehicle can complete a cross-country journey from point A to point B without having to make any switches on the way… Believe me that’s game changing!
