I wonder how the coach would handle if in-hub motors were in the bogies. The forward facing would be pulling while the rearward would be pushing. It seems like it would put forces on the bogies like they’ve never seen, nor been engineered for.

Maybe best to stay front wheel drive. It seems to me that a hybrid system with electric in-hub motors in the rear would be a good experiment.

Dreaming.
