Train Trivia 11/20/05 (ANSWERED)
Posted by Anonymous on Sunday, November 20, 2005 7:55 PM
Hello again folks to the fastest topic on the forum. I am you host America Train Trivia detector, sitting in the prestigious folding chair, behind the gold (well plastic) E machines keyboard. Don't forget that if you have a trivia question just let me know when and go ahead and post the question yourself.

In what year was the first Chessie calendar produced?

1. 1934
2. 1930
3. 1938
4. 1929
With half my brain tied behind my back, just to make it fair.

Lotus,

You know folks are going to get it right away if they can simply google the answer. You need to come up with something that isn't posted in cyberspace for everyone to see. How many railroading books or old TRAINS or other rail magazines do you have access to?
