Re: Vehicles on rails
Hi Markus:
The last photo is most interesting. I am not a railroad fan, but it certainly does not look very military like, nor like a normal civilian rail transport
Could it be some sort of crew bus or technical personnel bus used by railroad workers??

Re: Vehicles on rails
Hi Bill,
Trainspotting is not my hobby either but looks like a civilian diesel or petrol-engined railbus to me. Beute vehicle, according to the seller at

Re: Vehicles on rails
Bill, I think Markus has it right; a lot of (European) railways produced railbuses between (and after) the wars; they'd have been used for passenger 'trains' on smaller rural lines where there wasn't enough traffic to justify a 'proper' train.

Re: Vehicles on rails
Thanks to both of you. You learn something new every day on this Forum.
Thanks to Google, here is a 1939 Fiat Railbus that made it's way to the US and was under rebuild in 1999

Several photos from 5. /Eisenbahn Pio. Reg.3 (exp. eBay.de auctions; numbers in the pic names correspond to the auction N:os) including mildly interesting shots of lorries switching between road and track shoes.
