This is interesting:
Interesting indeed!
I’m not 100% sure what practical application it might here unless it could make use of abandoned rail lines with the tracks intact, but it might be a gas to have one for rail speeder club excursions and rallys!
That video came from a German N scale forum that I belong to. The bulk of the comments on it pretty much say “Why not run trains on the tracks and buses on the roads?” I tend to agree but it is still a neat looking thing.
Modern French design with more flexibility (rail and road) than a Schienenbus.

I had a ride in one of those old German rail buses a few years ago. They didn’t call them “Growlers” for nothing.
Pretty rough riders, too. But they made passenger rail service possible on lightly used Lokalbahnen.
