I'm a Classic Red Routemaster Double Decker Bus. I would love to roll through the streets of London and look at all of the sites and Landmarks. I would also be rolling down my favroite side of the Street. The Left Side. :D

Amtrak Superliner long-distance train.

Some pictures of what I'm referring to:
http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=127991
http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=38494
http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=78203
http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=73443

Three reasons:
1) It's my favorite mode of transportation
2) It always gets bashed and made fun of by lots of people (congressional critics, for one), just like I have been for many years
3) I love this country and have been through most of it on said conveyance.

I'm an old steam train like the Hogwarts Express. A bit of an anachronism but not many high-tech parts to go wrong.

I'm an aeroplane. Most likely a concord.
In otherwords, I have the ability to soar above above all of the crud that surrounds the rest of you on a daily basis. And at breakneck speed, at that.

I'm a skateboard. It's pretty hard for me to hide something, but I can be really cool anyway. I can go a lot of places with you, whether or not I'm the one holding you up and getting you there- and sometimes you can have fun with me doing ridiculous things which serve no purpose and get you nowhere but are still really fun. Unfortunately, if something goes wrong, I can cause some serious damage and you'll feel like crap. Oh, and I'm low to the ground.

a little red trolley that a six year old kid hops in and screams racing down a massively steep hill at 80 km/hour with no ability to brake except for bailing out into a pile of thorny bushes

I reckon I am a civilian-specification Humvee - I am always barging in, I need a military-sized upkeep, and I am always unwelcome. :lol:

Except that I am short, and probably not as fat as a Humvee.

But you've been taken out of service because you're no longer profitable?
