Two cars... One car... Forty feet... Twenty Feet... Ten... Five.... Sound of 20 pinball machines all going "TILT!" Stretch 'em... |

On a moving train, even the deaf, dumb, and blind kid would have a hard time playing with just his sense of smell!! (if you get this, then it shows just how old you are!!) |

The folks at Strasburg are in the know, check out the description: Quote: Are you wizard enough to beat the classic game while the train taunts you with her own unpredictable tilt? Housed inside an authentically restored wooden passenger car, the Pinball Pendolino will feature 12 vintage pinball machines, allowing passengers to test their skill (and luck) They italicized "Wizard", just to see who gets it I'm guessing. Also, looking at the games, if you recall playing them, you're old enough. |

I do not think there is room in the coach for me to wear my giant pair of Doc Marten boots and stand at the machine. David Wilkins Local Lad |

Should the tilt detectors be bypassed and let the motion ruin shots on its own? |

If this had been posted anywhere near April, nobody would have believed it. Frankly, if I didn't see the photo, I'd have had difficulty believing it as well. It never would have occurred to me that they'd do anything like this... |
