Title: How Long With It Take...? Post by: thetrout on February 09, 2009, 19:08:31 Ok.
A Train service is timetabled to leave at 18:03 to travel to Penzance from London Paddington. The Line is clear and 125MPH travel has been allowed. The train is 90% Full. There is a Guard onboard. Assuming the time is now 18:52, Where is the train?? No Clues, somebody might be smart enough to work it out... ;D Title: Re: How Long With It Take...?
