Man, I hate that...

There's a story I read, a long time back - about the crew of a high-tech ambulance/wrecker on the intercontinental highway system. I think the name of the story was "Code Red", and it was a good 20-30 years back, if not more. I ran across a link to an on-line copy through Metafilter - but I must not be remembering the title right. If you recall the story (Three person crew, HUGE ambulance hovercraft, capable of doing 300mph or more) let me know if I've got the title right...

John C.:

It was "Code Three", by Rick Raphael, which appeared in the February 1963 issue of Analog, cover and illos by John Schoenherr. There was at least one follow-up story.

That's the one, John. There was a discussion over at Talk-Polywell.org about high speed rail, and someone mentioned that story.

Thank you for finding that!
