CargoSprinter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The CargoSprinter is a multiple unit (or articulated) freight car;
it could also be thought of as a container lorry that runs on rails.
Built by the German company Windhoff, it is in effect a self-propelled flatcar for containers. It is intended to recapture some of the freight market back from road trucks, by making it economically feasible to carry small amounts of freight to the individual sidings of warehouses and businesses, without the complications and overhead of conventional Locomotive-hauled trains.
