X Train (train)

The X  Train  is a  Grouch  transportation mechanism described in a  SESAME STREET  song  by  OSCAR THE GROUCH  &  his  girlfriend  GRUNDGETTA  on SESAME STREET. The 2  GROUCHES  are shown at  OSCAR  ' s  TRASH CAN  together.  OSCAR  is holding a small picture of the letter X while  GRUNDGETTA  is holding a small picture of a Train.

T h e y  start t o s a y " X " & " train " to each other over & over, something Gordon only sees a s a n argument , & so he asks  th  em  what it is  th  ey  ' re arguing about this time. Immediately, the  GROUCHES  insist th  ey  ' re not arguing , just getting ready to sing a  song  about a train , which is called the " X [[X Train| Train ] " , which is named cause it ' s a train that has a big letter X on i t.

 Oscar  &  Grundgetta  then start singin a song  about how  GROUCHES  travel on the X  Train ], a train t hat , apparently , doesn ' t take any of its passengers anywhere , & that the [[X Train| Train  whistle is the only thing that they can ever get going , which  GROUCHES  obviously never mind being who  they  are.

Then, after the song  ,  OSCAR  asks Gordon if he has any questions about the  X Train  , to which Gordon replies " Well , y es " , but  Oscar  says " Too bad !  I  ' m not answering them ! " , & obviously  GRUNDGETTA  s a y s " Ha !  M E  eith er ! " , &  th  ey  start laughing as  th  ey  ( presumably ) head back down into  OSCAR  ' s  TRASH CAN .
