I would say so. Bit puzzled about the wheels. Were they adapted to run on rails at any point?

I honestly have no idea or other info other than the image. Those weird flanges (is that the right term even?) on the wheels I had assumed to be some odd scheme to improve the ability to cross soft ground by increasing the surface area in contact with the ground.
I think it must be referring to the Uganda Railway. Have a look at this excellent article:
