Product type, density and loading/unloading requirements will determine which car is best suited for your needs. Rail vehicles have very different bogies to road vehicles. This is a sub-project within Multi Functional Bodypanels by the Centre for ECO2 Vehicle Design at the Department of Aeronautical and Vehicle Engineering at KTH. These cars are designed for bulk commoditiesВ that require protection against the elements and/or contamination. project: A Light Weight Car Body for High-Speed Trains.
