There are three types of Shuttle used on these trains (all use a pair of the same bo-bo-bo electric locos). First up, the double deck shuttle used for standard cars and anything else that will fit - these have solid sides and passengers remain with their cars. The same goes for the single deck shuttles that are used for busses, RVs, trailer caravans, etc - they look very similar from the outside but only have one deck. Third, the truck transports - these have lattice sides and the drivers travel in a passenger car coupled between one loco and the train. One of the latter type was involved in a nasty fire when a truck caught light - passengers and crew had to evacuate through the service tunnel. As a result of this there are two designs of HGV (Heavy Goods Vehicle) shuttle - the original and a later one introduced to replace the cars lost in the fire.
