That mechanism is very delicate - I can't imagine it being used in for example a GEVO.  Those microscopic motors aren't very robust and they don't have much torque.  Just enough to propel that small LRV.

The H0 P42 uses much stouter coreless motors with lots of torque.  Same as used in the N scale FEF3.


That's what I figured, it would still be cool.
Now with the ram though, are both trucks powered?

Yes, both trucks on that tram have motors in them.
