railbike
Pedaled rail vehicle
A railbike is a bicycle or pedal-powered vehicle modified to travel on railroad tracks, typically fitted with flanged wheels or guide attachments that keep it on the rails.
Railbikes are used recreationally on abandoned or inactive rail lines: We rented railbikes and pedaled through the old mining country.
Some designs seat two or four riders.
