According to J.J. Keller's Tractor-Trailer Driver Training Manual 2nd Edition, a road train is any combination with 2 or more trailers. There are 3 types; A-train, B-train, and C-train. The information is in chapter 19. You can, also, get this information from your states CDL manual, found at DMV service centers. Wisconsin has a version that you can find on-line in pdf format.
no, just because it has a certain amount of wheels does mean its a road train, i have an 8 axle dump truck not including the steer axle and they dont call that a road train
Gross weight is gross weight . In my state 80,000 is it.

this is just the legal way that the US trailers can carry the weight. So many axles to spread the weight around. Somewhat do-able but impractible.

Anyone heard of '64 wheelers' perhaps?

Besides, road trains, we see them in Australia.
And I wish we had single axle converter dollies in my country!
