Trucks seem to be the preferred mode of transporting goods and cargo across India, leading to clogged highways, diesel fumes around residential and village areas and old trucks plying on our highways. Were we to ship cargo on trains, all this could be avoided, as the trains run on fixed routes, do not clog up highways, often use electricity as their means of powering, and the incremental cost of adding cargo rakes would not be high. This shot is thus symbolic, as the train itself is seen carrying trucks on it. Not quite what we had in mind, but a window to the future, perhaps!
