This a recessed flatcar used for carrying oversized loads such as pressure vessels.

I don't remember correctly but these have very slow allowable speed (around 40 kmph).

Rare indeed!! From the looks of it, probably was the chassis for a BG crane as part of an ART - I'm presuming so, by looking at the hut-like structures and also the wheelsets on it at both ends. In all probability it was a self powered crane with bi-directional operability, and possibility haul a tiny payload behind it.
