In Europe existing some biplane car trains for easy traveling that I used several times with my flat Karmann Ghia.
But the bay window camper was to high (on top critical the electric overhead lines).

Great pictures. Cool


Was that an event? I'd love to ride my bus on a train (I've done ferries), but it would be soooo much sweeter if there were other buses on with me. Looks like a fun trip and I hope to be able to post a cool pic like these too someday!

Definatly one of the trips I want to make when I eventually come for a visit!

When I helped my good friend Iggy buy and transport a 64 Ghia over to him in the Czech Rep. he sent me back a touring shot. Cool

Love it.

that's an extremely cool way to travel, wish we had that here in the US..

we do have the amtrak autotrain https://www.amtrak.com/auto-train-experience .. from Lorton, Va to Sanford, Fl.
I've had this van loaded on that twice in our travels.


I know it's not a Bay, but it was built in 1979 Wink
and this is a cool train.

my van on top of Mt Washington in New Hampshire.
this is the 'accessible' parking next to the building & cog train landing.
*took mom up.. she wasn't going to go at the bottom, but enjoyed her time once at the top.. she has a fear of drop offs..
