Why not "bank on train" with "real station sound in baby looking train"?
Since the Japanese love their money and love their trains, Japan Rail has used its' initiative and finally dared go where every other train company in Japan has gone before them...the world of licensed money boxes!
Not content with the usual train-shaped money box, these JR models do have a point of difference from your average Bullet Train money boxes (that just go fast I assume). These particular JR branded trains are not only modeled on 2 of the busiest JR lines in Tokyo - the Yamanote/Green line as well as the Chuo/Orange line - but come to life when money goes in by lighting up and blaring out tunes unique to stations on those particular JR lines around Tokyo.
So if the Yamanote line is your thang, get your fix of Shibuya, the world's busiest station, quite literally at the drop of a penny. Or get your coin on to the Chuo Line!
Warning - sound may trigger repressed memories of sweaty salarymen pressed up against you in the height of summer, causing nausea, trembling and the desire to get off this ride as quickly as possible. Ear plugs not included.
