What are those old railroad carts/scooter things called?

Question

It's like a platform with wheels, it sort of straddles the track has a big lever and you make it move by pumping it up and down.

I'm trying to find pictures of one.....and I thought it was "hand cart" ~ a few things are coming up under that, but I'm guessing there HAS to be another name for that thing.

Help! :)
