Fast Furious Freights

Auto Train by Marco Gallegos is Transporter That Acts like a Car Taxi

— June 1, 2012 — Autos
When traveling distances that are too long to drive or too quick to fly by plane, the Auto Train by Marco Gallegos is the way to go.

The Auto Train concept is a modern freight that attempts to make traveling less of a hassle. It's an automated system that services drivers and their cars and acts as a car taxi. Train sections are crafted to diverge from the track at specific sections to minimize the need to stop between every destination. Drivers can park their cars while seated in a waiting room built with see-through partitions to offer spectacular views to gaze upon while commuting.

This taxi train is ideal for places such as Europe where countries are packed closely with the train as the perfect traveling method. Marco Gallegos creates a train design that's sleek, modern and highly functional.

Trend Themes
1. Automated Freight Transportation - The Auto Train concept showcases the potential for automated systems to streamline long-distance travel and reduce hassle for both drivers and their cars.
2. Multimodal Transportation - The integration of train and car transport in the Auto Train creates a seamless and efficient travel experience, offering convenience and flexibility to travelers.
3. Sustainable Travel Solutions - By providing an alternative to driving or flying, the Auto Train promotes eco-friendly travel options, reducing carbon emissions and congestion on roads and at airports.
Industry Implications

2. Hospitality - The waiting room with see-through partitions in the Auto Train offers a unique and enjoyable experience for commuters, presenting opportunities for hospitality providers to enhance the travel experience.
3. Automotive - The Auto Train concept requires specially designed train sections to accommodate cars, presenting opportunities for innovation and collaboration between the automotive and transportation industries.
