It's me, Nikki
with an all-new Nikki's Wiki!
Today, we're talking about Trucks vs. Trains!
Let's check out some awesome facts and find out which vehicle rules more!
Starting with size.
The biggest truck in the world is the Belaz 75710
It's 26 feet tall and 67 feet long.
This is no monster truck...
It's more like a mega-monster truck!
It's also really expensive.
Costing over $6,000,000 dollars!
Wowzers!
You need a big truck just to CARRY that much money!
Did you know, the longest train in the world
was an Australian Iron Ore train.
It was over 4 miles long!
That's like 3000 basketball players lying head to toe!
Or, like 80 city blocks!
Phew, that's quite a walk!
Tell me about it...
It had 682 wagons of iron ore.
And weighed over 200 million pounds!
I wonder how many Iron Man suits that would make...
Next up: strength.
These trucks and trains definitely spent some time at the gym.
Lookin' goood.
Thanks, workin' on my cars of steal.
The Tarek's M6300 can carry up to
400 tons of sand.
I bet it can build some pretty awesome sand castles.
But it looks like trains beat trucks in this category.
A 70-car freight train can hold up to 3000 tons.
That's about 2 million bananas!
Next: speed.

A train!
I mean... What is a train?
That's right!
Trains go way faster than trucks.
In fact, the world's fastest train is...
Japan's Bullet Train!
It clocks in at 374 miles per hour.
That's about 300 miles per hour faster than a cheetah.
Was that a bird? A plane?
Oh, that's just a super train...
So overall, trains are bigger,
stronger,
and faster.
Some trains even carry trucks from one place to another!
Thanks for the ride, Diesel.
Yeah, anytime....
But, both trucks and trains are really fun to play with!
So what do you think?
Which do YOU like to play with?
Trucks?
Or trains?
Or both?
