Disco Matt:
Moving railway stock on the flat isn't so hard (once you get it moving, and the right gearing will help there). The problem is stopping! You'd have to fit an air/vacuum brake system depending on what the stock you're working with uses.

I would expect most 4x4s to be able to shift a couple of wagons on the flat. Certainly I remember seeing photos of a Disco with road/rail fittings moving three coaches.
