German aircraft engineer Franz Kruckenberg engineered and built the Schienenzeppelin in 1929 – a train that was powered by a 600 horsepower aircraft BMW V12 motor. Propulsion was by means of a propeller located at the rear, it accelerated the railcar to 230.2 km/h (143.0 mph) setting the land speed record for a petrol powered rail vehicle. Only a single example was ever built, which due to safety concerns remained out of service and was finally dismantled in 1939.
