Now the bus will run on the railway!

The Dhaka Times Desk What you see in the picture is a bus, a train and a DMV (dual mode vehicle) at the same time. This is the world's first dual-mode vehicle!

This vehicle can run equally on road and rail. Its public exhibition was held last Saturday in Kaiyo, Tokushima Prefecture, Japan.

এই ডিএমভি বাস দেখতে অনেকটা মিনিবাসের মতোই। রাস্তায় সাধারণ রাবারের টায়ারেও চলে, কিন্তু যখন ইন্টারচেঞ্জে পৌঁছায়, তখন ইস্পাতের চাকা গাড়ির নিচের অংশ থেকে রেল ট্র্যাকের উপর নেমে এসে একে ট্রেনের ক্যারেজে পরিণত করে ফেলে। তখন ট্রেনের চাকা সামনের টায়ারগুলোকে ট্র্যাক থেকে তুলে দেয়। পেছনের চাকাগুলো ডিএমভি’কে রেলপথে নিয়ে যাওয়ার জন্য নিচে থাকে।

It is learned that Asa Coast Railway Company is the manufacturer of this DMV. The company's CEO, Shigeki Miura, said the vehicles could also help small towns like Kaiyo with aging and shrinking populations. Where local transport companies are struggling to make a profit. He also mentioned that it can reach the locals (as a bus) and also take them to the railways.

It is known that these cars, capable of carrying a maximum of 21 passengers, can run at a speed of 60 km/h on railway tracks and about 100 km/h on public roads. These diesel powered DMVs will be available in different colors.

It is reported that the bus will initially run along parts of the coast of Shikoku Island in southern Japan and will also connect several small towns. Through this, passengers can also enjoy the attractive scenery of the seashore. Source: Ittefaq.
