    To try and lighten the mood around here, lets have a quiz!

    No google gangs or phone a friends please, and its just for fun. If it works and no one falls out I might make it a monthly occurance.

    I'll give the answers in 24 hours (so 10pm UK time 30/4/26), who will get bragging rights?

    Question 1) Excluding mainland Britain, name 4 islands with train stations in TSW6 - 4 marks
    Question 2a) Which country has the least modelled train stations? - 1 mark
    Question 2b) Name all these countries train stations. - 1 mark each
    Question 3) Name 4 USA train stations in TSW which have no driveable services stopping at them in timetable mode - 4 marks
    Question 4) Which are the 2 deepest stations below sea level in TSW (measured by Winzarten's TSW Route Annotations + Live Weather app) - 1 mark each
    Question 5) Which route no longer exists in its modelled form - 1 mark
    Question 6) Which route has the least German Stations - 1 mark
    Question 7) Excluding the Thomas DLC in real life what is the oldest TSW locomotive class? - 1 mark
    Question 8) JD famously leaked TSW3 during a preview stream for which route? - 1 mark
    Question 9) Sam is a famous ex DTG community manager, but what was his DTG forum handle? 1 mark
    Question 10) Which route did Lucas put a plague saying "this is not a bug" - 1 mark

    Tie Break I walked south from the end of North Queensferry platform to Dalmeny plantform end, how many railway sleepers/railroad ties did I walk over? Closest gets 1 mark
