A trackless train comprising a locomotive and carriages of N trailers is disclosed. The locomotive comprising an axle for a pair of steering drive wheels, controlled by a driver through a bogie, which comprises an angle sensor connected to an input end of a steering angle meter. The kth carriage comprises a steering wheel having a steering mechanism, controlling the steering angle of the steering wheel. The controller comprising an input end connected to an output end of a clock, an odometer and the steering angle meter, and an output end connected to an input end of the steering mechanism of the trailers via an optical network. The controller records time (from clock), mileage (from odometer) and steering angle of the steering drive wheels (steering angle meter), and describes/controls a travelling track of the train, such that the steering wheels of the carriages and the locomotive maintain the same track.
