Mar-09-02, 08:08 PM (EST) 1. "RE: Quirky Vehicle" LAST EDITED ON Mar-09-02 AT 08:08 PM (EST)I bet you can't say you've actually ridden one! They are only for forward operation, though. The forward thrust transmitted by the rear wheel provides the torque needed to keep all 3 wheels on the rails. Reverse just drops the rear wheel almost immediately. It appears, though, as if the one pictured has main wheels that straddle the rail, rather than the plain wheels used on the 3 I've seen (and 1 I've ridden). I still prefer handcars.
