Innovative Bus/Train
New Buzzword Dept: Get ready for the DMV or dual-mode vehicle.
Japan is experimenting with a combo bus/train that can break free of railway tracks and use roads, or bust out of traffic and use the railway lines. Sounds like a lot of logistical management is needed to avoid train collisions, but the new cars are lighter for railway use and hopefully will help cut down track damage as a result.
