Roadtrain: BQuad of 4 x 40foot containers


The round bit at the rear is a streamlined cowling that covers a turntable, so another trailer can be added. Still to do: container detailing, logos, lights, road and background, cabin doors & detailing, roo-bar.

Wow... what would the fuel requirements for a thing like that be? I mean, would it be more efficient to run one tractor pulling all those or two each pulling half the load? And gads, how would it navigate if it had to go to drop the load somewhere that wasn't right on a highway? How could it pull into a depot?

Road trains are a very Aussie setup:



They are huuuuge :)

Since it's only a "future vehicle concept" I can wave my magic SF wand and claim all sorts of fuel efficiencies and power train advances.

And it's sort of based on real road trains, like this one I photographed in the NT. 53m long, and that's my Camry.
