It's certainly an interesting machine and very manoverable. Wierd to
watch though and it must be strange to work with it. I mean we're all
used to standing alongside a vehicle and feeling safe cos it can't get
you from there. This thing can!
ISTR seeing a similar type of thing many years ago, probably on
Tomorrow's world. Details are vague now but it had 4 tracks in a
square formation. Instead of normal elements, the tracks had free
rollers at right angles to the track. That meant it could be pushed
sideways but would drive forwards and backwards.
I've tried Google but can't find any details that nake it any clearer.
