ith steel and rubber wheels, as well as a bus, driving on roads with conventional tires.

The prototype seem having some problem about the balance. Quitly dangerous as we see that was having about no winds and the minibus was balancing side to side.
However, i hope that theese prototype goes more far and fin a way to adapt this kind of transport to any climate. It could be a good way of transport if security part were more worked.

Considering the time it takes to drop the hi-rail wheels on to the tracks, and all the geopolitics of having to talk to dispatch to get clearance to enter the RoW, I don't see it as being very efficient. I don't see it even passing a kaizan audit.

The idea is to lower the cost of passenger rail service on lightly-traveled branchlines. That is one reason the bus is so narrow, and it does not seem capable of high speed or powerful enough to pull an articulated section.
