A news article in the Times today reminded me of a fantastic sight you often see on the Konkan Railway track between Mumbai and Mangalore, passing through the lovely coastal villages of Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka and Kerela... the RO-RO (Roll on Roll Off) trains, loaded with countless trucks - an exciting initiative that makes a lot of economic sense, as well as reducing polution and saving millions of litres of diesel. Trucks travelling south can simply hitch a ride on the train :) Isn't the idea just so cool?

Great concept. Also, very good in terms of pollution and traffic. Never knew about this.
