Road Bike vs. Touring Bike

I've seen references in threads to "touring bikes", making a distinction between that type of bike and a road bike.

Can anyone please point me to some material that explains the differences between them? I'm thinking of doing a VBT 6 day tour in early fall and I'm wondering if I would be better off with a touring bike (I have a Trek Pilot 1.2 now).

Thanks.
