Weird! I've never seen a train or tracks like that before, and I have no idea
what clone brand it might be.
However, about seven years ago I bought a heap of LEGO from someone I knew
casually, and in the mix was a bunch of clone elements. Most were Tyco with a
few Mega Bloks thrown in, but there was what looked like a black traincar roof
about the size of a 6x12 brick. It would be too large for the engine in the
picture, but maybe there's a corresponding caboose that would be the right size?
There was no visible logo, and there were no other elements like it, so I put it
on the "no idea" pile.
The seller in my case was American, but I believe that his family was from Iran
and traveled a great bit, so who knows what brands they might have picked up
over the years?
It's packed away right now, but if I can find it, I'll post a picture.
If you can figure out the brand once you receive it, let us know!
Dave!

| (...) I do believe that is by Tomy. I have a Hot Wheels size Tomy car with four studs on the roof, and I have the top of a Tomy steam engine that looks similar to that. Look here: (URL) (19 years ago, 26-May-06, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
