Okay, Carioca, I'll buy that one about the school bus on the railroad. But what do they do with it once they've got up on the railroad and traveling down the track? I mean... why?

This bus has been modified for road and rail use.

Why not? Much cheaper that pulling a passenger car with a locomotive. Most RR's used them during the Hay-Day of railroading. One of my favorites was the "Galloping Goose", a 30`s something short bus. They even had frieght versions. Now days they are used for tourist rides in places cars can't go.

There are several "Galloping Goose" and "Skunk Line" trains operating in the US. Here is a YouTube video:

Here's another I stumbled across while geocaching in the Mojave desert. It's about 8' tall. Kinda cool although not really environmentally friendly, it's better than spray paint.
I love how you placed the tree to look like hair. Very cute!

Ahhh! I see it now. That's actually a good "sclupture" to be made out of tape.

Okay... now it almost believable. It looks like the figure is made out of ice... or is it clear package-sealing tape???? How cool is that?
