I just found this loco on eBay and I have never seen anything like it. At first glance I
thought it might be an Aerotrain, but a closer look and ????????

Tyco made neater cars for this train then Varney did for the Aero Train. The ends of the passenger cars had one round end and one concave end. They fitted together perfectly and made the train a snake. capable of twisting around curve tracks with out that open area between cars. I've seem trollies made like this.
