Following the news that the police want to fine motorists even if they are only 1 mph over the speed limit, Derek (the At) brought along a stopwatch, table of scale speeds, and whistle.  He proceeded to let the operators just how fast their trains were running.  With little effect I hasten to act.  Graham’s yellow bullet train was overtaken by Bruno’s 0-6-0 Jinty and coaches at an alarming 275 mph.  Mallard, no chance!

Paul had a full length Kato Eurostar running to test all the couplings out ready for Stuttgart.  We’ll put our part of the proposed Stuttgart layout together on Sunday’s PlayDay, then it’s only a matter of trying to fit everything in the two vehicles..
