How many Pagoda's do you see?
« on: June 10, 2014, 15:14:15 »
Take a wild guess I'll tell you later the actual number and the winner that came closest to the actual count :)

So type a number ... It will take only a few seconds of your time and it's as easy as ,,,, 123 (no that is NOT the correct number)

Pascal, you are the closest so far (hint, anyone going over the actual number is no longer in the running ... Sorry ~grin~ ).... Nothing to be won, just a challenge to get closest to the  actual number ... Hint it was a world record (other then what might have been at the factory at one time ... I'm only guessing here) when all those fine cars assembled at one place.

Alfred, I never ever count to get to sleep after my god French glass of red at night ... Well sometimes two ....

And no I am not ask any of my friends :) mind you, It might be a swell time some of us may look forward to ... I hear when that time comes you will constantly meet new people and you can hide your own Easter eggs :)

Sorry for letting you guys wait so long :) the winner (closest to the actual number) is Pascal .... Pascal you said 250 :)  The actual Number was 364

Enjoy some of the photos ---->http://www.sl-day.de/html/sl-day_teil_1_9.html

In 2003 a total of 364 pagodas (W 113 series) have gathered in the parking lot in front of the Wilhelmsbau am Technik Museum, Speyer

Question ... Was any member from here living in Europe or anywhere else there ???

Sorry Gael, he exceeded the correct number, on the other hand I should have mentioned (not to exceed the actual number) my bad ... so let's have 2 winners :)

Was it not a great gathering? Let's do it again :)
