The tail opens up into a parachute, silly.

wait...the whole idea is silly.

Actually I was talking about the ears. I'm guessing a whole 'Dumbo' thing.

oh....should've quoted about the ears.

well, that train has a lot of weight behind it. Its going to take more than wind resistance to stop it.

Well the train hits a maximum speed of almost 250mph. So that's got to be a lot of wind resistance.

The train ears do have an Anime look about it.

Don't laugh, however, unless your country has a better train. Here in the U.S., we don't.

Practically everyone here in the U.S. has thier own transportation. If everyone uses the train to get back and forth to places, we would have one simular to the one over there.

what? according to the link, the tail is used to say "thank you" to the car behind you.

Man, I hate to see what they use if someone cuts you off.

wait...I know...the finger.

That reminds me of the Amazing Animal Inventions show. There was a hamster powered car that these two Japanese kids designed. The hamsters run around in hamster wheels and it makes the car go. It's top speed? 7 miles per hour.

I guess the train's whistle would be...a howl
