And the latest technology in Rail Car rolling stock is the Variable Diameter Wheel also known as a VDW Wheel. GPS equipment senses upcoming turns and thru onboard computers send signals to the VDW Integration Unit known as a VDWIU. The VDWIU then send a proportional signal to the VDW's and the diameter either expands or shrinks. With this new technology, Rail Stock can be purchased Uni Direction so as trains are made up they dont have to figure if all left or right turns will be made.
