The I like Trains kid

[togimagi]

It's just one bunnyish thing, so I don't think I'll need to put it under a cut. Anyways, I recently saw this youtube video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHkKJfcBXcw and immediately thought of Astrotrain. I can imagine the many reactions Astrotrain would have if he ever met

While I don't particularly like the video, it is an interesting idea.

That said, being a major railfan myself (most of my YouTube subscriptions are rail videographers), I do wonder of possibilities. I've already seen a little comic where he took a large train, and used it to block a grade crossing in an attempt to stop the Autobots. Other ideas may be out there...

In addition, I think an alt-mode change to an SD40-2 would be appropriate. The SD40-2 was manufactured by EMD from January 1972 to August 1984, and was undoubtedly the most common locomotive on American rails at the time the G1 cartoon made its original run.
He would be a purple-painted version of this:

Lol, I had the weird mental image of that kid humping Astrotrain's leg.
