Now that you've gotten a feel for how the bone tool works, let's work on some animation with the bone tool. To start, we're going to animate a train. Take each part of the train, use the bone tool to link them together, move your rotation points to the back hitch of the car in front of the car you're working with, then animate the train moving over the hills and offscreen. Make sure to add a locator symbol (a an extra circle shape, see picture below) at the end of the train and constrain the joints so the train doesn't break.
