Been use beyond trains.

WikiPedia The Piasecki H-21 Workhorse/Shawnee is an American helicopter, the fourth of a line of tandem rotor helicopters designed and built by Piasecki Helicopter (later Boeing Vertol). Commonly called "the flying banana", it was a multi-mission helicopter, utilizing wheels, skis, or floats.

This is why I'm brokeExperience the adrenaline rush of a lifetime by turning yourself into a kite using the flying banana boat. This immensely fun inflatable is large enough to accommodate up to five people at once, allowing you to take to the skies as the towing boat speeds up.

East Norfolk Bus BlogThe beginning of the month coincides with the news that the Flying Banana name could soon return to the town.
The original Flying Banana bus service started in the town in late 1990's with the purpose of providing a connection between Gorleston's Shrublands Estate and Great Yarmouth - then unserved by a bus link.
With First's current services through the estate currently being gradually reduced due to Government funding cuts, it has emerged that a community bus scheme could be established utilising vehicles presently out of use during the off peak periods.
The scheme, to be funded under the European AFOOL programme, will allow the as yet undisclosed bus company to train up volunteers to operate the service. A similar scheme already operates in South Wales.
Of course, some of the above are more serious than others!
