Looks like it was built from random parts by somebody who had been told about a tricycle by a person who had never seen one.

That's so impressive that I have to post a screenshot so it's visible for eternity.
Triple up front, 3 sp hub. 1wd, single brake

Is that a foot operated rear drum brake?
Might have been made for someone with particular needs.

Yes, there's a drum brake in the right hub. I think 'special needs' more like.
