Well thats just weird...3 wheels?

I can't make out the lettering printed under the chassis except for China. What else does it say? There aren't any couplings so it must be a self roller.

It is weird, my guess is this is something from the Chuggington show.
Thank you chrisjo!Smile

He calls it the "track cycle", though in real life it would be called a draisine. Later, it gets destroyed by Action Chugger (no, not that one) by accident. Here's an example of a real three wheeled draisine:
