Used commonly in railway maintenance in Japan! This budget friendly truck is favoured by JR which want to cut budget on everything.

That's nowhere in the same size class as OPs. It's just the same style with a cab-forward design. It's probably a 3-ton.

That's the same model. Its a much heavier duty truck than these little flitter trucks referred to in the OP.

I'm not sure what you're not understanding here.

Should be correct now? Not really good at identifying car.

That's more like it.

Any idea what that MOW truck is for? The second cab in the rear is really throwing me off.

If it was just for towing it wouldnt have a cab in the rear like that.

The 2nd cab is just so they can drive forward in either direction on the rail.
