I once saw two dc drives with two motors operate on the same trolley bus bar rail. I could never figure out how it worked. The newer drive ran the newer motor and vice versus. No matter where on the bus the motors were connected. I still have that equipment, I'll have to hook it up some day and try to figure it out. Even though he told me never to try it.
My father set it up in the fifties. After becoming an EE, he went to work in Chicago - La Grange for GM's Electro-Motive locomotive plant. I spent two years there in the 90's. Neat place, lots of up to 1000 hp traction drive motors laying around.
Anyway, another wierd application.
