Description

1:engines 2:reversers 3:chute 4:ladder

A stock train called Kannonball. Built with 35 of the finest parts, its root part is mk3Cockpit.Shuttle.

Kannonball is a locomotive for high-speed inter-city rail links providing rapid transit from regional cities to hub airports. Use my Krew bus to efficiently load and unload Kerbals.

Kannonball has a top speed of 60 m/s in the water for deployment to the destination country (but plan on a kero consumption of 10 kals/km!); speed over land is only limited by your engineer’s bravery (recklessness)! A caboose jump seat is provided for the conductor whose only duties are 1. repack the chute after emergency stops and 2. change his shorts if time permits.

It is advisable to survey the flattest route in straight segments and mark each turn with a flag giving new heading/max speed (for both directions). Engineer can then safely observe the max speed and enjoy a comic book enroute.

How fast will it go?! Well, we know you are going to be sorely tempted to put wings on it!!

Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.3.1.
