Found this pretty interesting - a company called Triple Crown Services Company has a combination road and rail trailer called the RoadRailer which are specialized semi trailers which can be refitted with bogies and hauled on rail, without requiring lifting the trailer on/off of a flat car or container car. The company operates 14 terminals in the United States and Canada.

They used to have something similar here in Australia... I think I vaguely remember seeing one once about 15 years ago (dang I feel old now)

On another note, I have drawn a Roadrailer system for inclusion in the 2cc set :mrgreen: The trailers are eGRVTS, but slightly edited (and with Zephyris' permission of course)
