This is a very homemade toy that they were playing with. The metal on the back are wheels, and there is one more in the front. Another kid pushes from behind and this actually works pretty well, they were having fun when it didn't get stuck in the clay roads.

The Dhaka skyline. Imagine 13 million people living in a city that has few buildings over 6 stories tall.
