ROAD TRAIN
The eco-friendly Hybrid Electric Road Train, developed by the Department of Science and Technology-Metals Industry Research and Development Center (DOST-MIRDC) as an alternative mass transport system, is envisioned to help ease traffic congestion in metropolitan cities and ferry more commuters at any given time. The road train is composed of five interlinked airconditioned coaches that run on both diesel fuel and electricity powered by a generator with 260 batteries.
