This is a G Scale Gandy Dancer Handcar from the Big Haulers Series by Bachmann.

"Gandy Dancer" is a slang term for a member of a track laying or maintenance crew. The original sense referred to a worker who tamped down the ballast between the ties using a special tool (a gandy). This involved vigorous stamping on the tool while turning in a circle, an action which might be taken to resemble dancing.
