Cars on rails

We have had some photos in other threads.
Victorian Railways had several cars on rails, as inspection vehicles, and available for hire by businessmen when rails were more passable than dirt tracks. AFAIK each was unique: different makes, models & years. This one has been identified as a 1925 Buick. There were Dodges in later years.

I'd suggest that could be a 1924-26 Buick :dry:

For a moment I thought Packard, but sure it's a Buick.

The Military Jeep Club of Queensland recently had a 30km run on a disused railway line near brisbane. Half a dozen WW2 jeeps were fitted with rail wheels and the boys had a great time.
.Below are some of hundreds of photos of jeeps and other vehicles on rails in WW2.

First thing I noticed was the spare wheels.

They must have been optioned/ordered by some clerk who has never driven anything faster than an office desk!

Here are some more.
