this isn’t the point of the story, but is that paint truck driving on the railroad tracks?

Yes, they're called "high-rail" or "road-rail" vehicles. They have rail wheels that can be lowered down to drive on tracks or raised up for road use.
And sometimes the axel is short (narrow), so the tires are on the rail. It's funny to see them on a standard road.
They just use custom rims.
