Airport Baggage Trains
The steering mechanism on longer trackless trains operates in a similar manner to airport baggage carts, although the tractor units are commonly designed to be frequently detached from the baggage carts to be used for other purposes. Carts are also detachable to be left in loading areas. Airport baggage trains are often also much longer than the passenger type. (See Ground support equipment).

—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“It is up to my spirit to find the truth. But how? Grave uncertainty, each time the spirit feels beyond its own comprehension; when it, the explorer, is altogether to obscure land that it must search and where all its baggage is of no use. To search? That is not all: to create.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“Every American travelling in England gets his own individual sport out of the toy passenger and freight trains and the tiny locomotives, with their faint, indignant, tiny whistle. Especially in western England one wonders how the business of a nation can possibly be carried on by means so insufficient.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
