Hi All
If you wish to submit a new trivia question, please use the email address in the first post. The current trivia question is in the first post of the thread, and will also be announced via the Trainz newsletter.

Please do not post new questions in the thread, as this will lead to confusion with the 'official' trivia question at the start of the thread.

Regards
