Description

Peter's Railway - Racing Trains by Christopher Vine is a story about a young boy who builds and maintains his own miniature railway. After completing an impressive 5-mile extension, Peter is eager for more adventures. As he and the children work on their engineering skills, they're given new responsibilities on the railway, including building a model Stirling Single locomotive. This book explores various topics related to trains, such as how wheel size affects speed and pistons' movement. The author provides technical information and diagrams at the end of relevant chapters. Peter's invention of a computer-powered speedometer leads to exciting adventures and races along the track to test its accuracy.
