On the Darjeeling 2’ line in north India. Notice the closeup of the stabilizer wheels, which lack flanges

Crazy. How does that contraption even stay on the tracks??

Here is the real railroad train that still runs with 100 year old equipment. The writer of the article where this pic was taken from reports that the train doesn't go much faster than walking speed.

Thomas the train would be proud of the coloring!
