InvisaTrax® Road & Rail Track Inspection Vehicle

Beginning as a request from a photo, CatzPaw took a b/w photo from Bill Lane and several color photos along with dimensions from Mark Charles and created what you see here. This vehicle is motorized and operates from a small hand held remote control. It is capable of moving forwards and backwards.
