DYI with a bike motor used as a local mode of transportation on Russian abandoned railways. https://youtu.be/M9O1h_PtAo8?t=89 https://youtu.be/M9O1h_PtAo8?t=89 - in this specific case that is the only transportation connecting a remote (20 miles) village with a town where minimal services are available.

That looks not far off being a community run train!

Russians response to anything: Can we put a motor to that?
