Tractor Train Cake

My daughter loves trains. I wanted to make her a train cake. I created the wheels using some small circle pans and then cooked the rest of the batter in bread pans. I assembled the train and frosted. Two rectangles for the bottom and then the third rectangle cut in half and layered for the cab. I used toothpicks to attach the wheels. After all of this it looked more like a tractor than a train. That's alright, because she was turning two and tractors are almost as cool as trains.
