See Land Rover pulling a 100-tonne train

Land Rover Discovery Sport towed a 100-tonne train, the equivalent of a Boeing 757 along a railway bridge in an extreme towing test.
The £30,000 car pulled the train six miles along a rail track in Northern Switzerland. 
The train was 60 times heavier than the 4x4 SUV and same weight as a Boeing 757.
The car was put to test as it pulled the three train carriages along the rail track on Hemishofen bridge, 85 feet above the River Rhine.
According to Dailymail, residents of the town watched as the car which has a maximum towing weight of 2.5 tonnes pulled the train, which is some 60 times its own weight in a study carried out to demonstrate the towing capabilities of the all-terrain vehicle.

Wow....wonders on wheel.
