Why he's riding a big wheel / pennytfarthing on rails is anyone's guess... but I'm guessing he was a SOB to work for

Railcar with it's own portable turntable so it doesn't overheat from driving backwards long distance.... as the radiator needs the airflow to keep the engine cool. I just learned this from Johnny at Steampunk vehicles! It explains why so many inspection cars (real cars) riding the rails are double headed. This actually wasn't clear when I looked at a lot of double headed carsall of these are from http://http//steampunkvehicles.tumblr.com which has an incredible variety of all things old and steam powered
