Recreation, personal transport in remote rural areas with shit roads, track inspection, etc.

Also as a taxi service.

This shit would actually be useful to me, there's a scrap yard and a creek along the same railroad, and one of the tracks has been out of use for ~8 years

We have quite a few tracks for that here in Denmark. Mostly being used by rural families, german tourists and other groups of people with a notorious lack of ideas of what constitutes fun

Why would you have upright saddles? Clearly a recumbent is the only answer.

Pick it off the tracks and put it back on after the train passes. Most of the versions posted ITT look pretty light.

Looks good. But does not have marches, so it would be bad to ride. Just the most slow speed would be possible.
