Some fire departments hold competitions with other companies and build special vehicles to run their hoses and carry the Firefighters. This has some of the characteristics, with the hand holds and easy access. Ask the guy with the ugly Muskrat if this guy was a firefighter.

So I guess a lot of you guys lead forlorn and destitute lives and never visited a theme park with remote parking or a world's fair with trams that took you around the grounds or brought you in from remote parking areas. there were probably a fleet of these things doing duty pulling a string of people wagons around. Please keep you hands and feed inside the tram at all time while it is moving.

"The press photo is dated July 8, 1948, and the caption with it tells us that both driving and braking are controlled by the front wheels while the single rear wheel carried the steering duties. At the time in trial runs he had attained a speed of 55 mph with it." I'm not seeing how that could have been very safe.
