In order to promote its network and the shows available, the Cartoon Network transformed commuter trains into its most popular characters.
Making this an entire event, the network set up shop in a train station in Taiwan eagerly awaiting the arrival of the painted trains. Children from underprivileged families were asked to attend, and they were some of the first people to ride the trains. The mascots of the characters that were painted on the train were also in attendance, welcoming the children as they stepped in for a ride. The cartoons featured were the characters from 'Adventure Time,' and the kids loved seeing their idols. The Cartoon Network put on a fantastic event that made a lot of children happy.
