Though it will not be officially verified by officials of the Guinness World Record Board for a few months yet, model railroaders have built a model railroad train that measured over 925 feet and ran under its own power for over 750 feet.  This beats the record held by Miniatur Wunderland of Hamberg, Germany with a train measuring over 892 feet that traveled 630 feet.

The Battle-Gaming of Massachusetts club for teens meets on Saturdays at the Hamilton-Wenham Public Library.
