Quote from: Otherwise boring ESPN article
For this World Series, Houston has an oversized replica of an old-time locomotive simply known as "The Train" that moves along a track about 90 feet above left field when the hometown Astros hit a home run or win a game.
The train has been there for years, probably since the ballpark opened.

Ron Santo thought the train was carrying a load of pumpkins.  Pat Hughes said something like "No, Ron, this is Minute Maid Park.  Those are oranges".
