A sandrail, or sand rail, or rail, is a lightweight off-road motor vehicle specifically built for traveling in sandy terrain. Similar in some respects but often mistakenly referred to as a dune buggy or sand car, a sandrail is a different type of speciality vehicle. Sandrails are popularly operated on actual sand dunes. Some of the most popular sand dunes in the United States include Dumont Dunes CA, Coral Pink, Utah, Oregon Dunes, Oregon, St. Anthony Dunes, Idaho and Algodones Dunes, California (Imperial Sand Dunes). Sandrails can be driven on other types of terrain but are designed specifically for sand.
