Winner picks the topic and the Stat to beat (Highest or Lowest) and posts a picture.
It can be anything transport related and any type of Stat:
Example:
Shipping (Passenger) ------------- Top Speed ------------------------ QE2 Top Speed - 32 Knots
Planes ------------------------------ Highest Number of Passengers -- Corsair Boeing 757 - 524 Seats
Train Stations --------------------- Shortest Platform (Ft) ------------ Birkenhead North, platform 1 - 11 m Long
Airports ---------------------------- Longest Runway ------------------ Gatwick Airport UK - 2,766 m Long
Etc........
Then others have to try and beat it
Rules:
1. The Topic
Must have a transport connect.
It can be a mode of transport or a structure
Must have been in use or service some time in its history. (No proto types)
Please make the topic clear. If you want Steam Engines top speed, don't just put Topic - Trains or you might get a Bullet or two.
2. The Stat
Must be something challengeable and realistic. Don't start off with something that has no hope of ever being beaten like lowest passengers and starting off with a bike and 1 person.
Can be anything that your top trump shares with similar things in the same topic. I.e don't pick something that is only found on yours.
Make sure you stat clearly that others must beat your top trump with a higher or lower stat.
You must post a link to where you found your information.
3. General
A picture must be added of your top trump.
People have two weeks to try beat the trump. Winner picked on the Sunday
If the same entry is submitted by 2 people the 1st posted wins
If two different entry's with the same stat are submitted the 1st posted wins
If anyone thinks of anything else as a rule and its agreed I'll add it. This is just what I could think of to get started.
I'll get it started with:
Topic: Train Stations
Stat: Deepest underground/subway Station
My Trump: London Underground Northern line - Hampstead - 58.5 metres (192ft)
