The Vision

The vehicle will be very similar to the hand car seen in the links and pictures on the main page. We will expand to incorporate some new ideas. Of some of these ideas and modifications, many may be unrealistic and will not work with our scope of time and limited budget. Now is not the time to set limits.

The first big modification is for it be "road-worthy." Basically make it so we don't need tracks. A steering mechanism would be nice. Also a brake. The vehicle will need to carry at least 15 - 20 people. It will have to be a lot larger than the typical hand car. Below is an artist's rendition of the vehicle. There are posts in which lanterns are dangling from.




Some other ideas for carrying the large number of people are adding a trailer or a second story.
