I am the president of the local FCM chapter, and we have had a riding lawn tractor donated to us to build a parade car out of.
We are thinking that if we make the tractor look like a train loco each member can build his own car to pull behind.
I would like this thing to be really cool and am looking for suggestions for features to build into the loco.
I have planned:
a PA System (both music and voice)
a smoke generator
lights and bells
maybe even a bubble machine at the steam exhaust
so any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Shadow

You have to do the old tied to the train tracks gag... somehow bring a portable set of train tracks and you can tie one of your magiains to the track with any set of trick hand cuffs and they can escape!!! bet the parade watchers will love it!!!!
Sounds like a great idea... make sure you post a picture of the finished product!!!

Very funny idea,
I can see it now
The clowns grab me off of the loco tux and all, draw tracks on the street with chalk bind me and then try to run over me. BroDavid will save me in a flash of fire.
Very kewl
Thanks

I love the idea!
And as far as saving you in a flash of fire, Shadow, I really think the crowd will enjoy it more if the train actually does run over you.
Uhmm, Oh, nevermind..... Forget that I just said that.....
Absolutely! Yes! Sure Shadow, I will save you.......
