And we will never be able to tell whether it is correct....

40004 + 66044 - 66034 = 40014

The TOPS Maths Game from @Western 52

Here are some rules for the game:-

  • Players can challenge the calculations made by other players if they think they are wrong in some way, such as incorrect calculation or use of numbers never carried by any locomotive. Where challenges are successful, the player making the error will then be able to play again to correct the error before the game continues normally.
Let's start with @Western 52's favourite loco, 25063.

Good luck!
