Full title reads: "Germany. Speed .. Speed .. More Speed! Revolutionary designed coach - heralding new era in express trains, driven by 500 hp engine - attains 125 mph on first trip from Hanover to Berlin."



Germany.



A revolutionary design of streamlined railway engine comes up to platform at Hanover railway station. It is powered by a propellor at the rear. The single coach is very modern looking - almost space age.



Passengers get on board the coach. CU of propellor as the train moves away.



Shots from the train as it is speeding along. Shots of the train speeding past.



N.B. This is the same train as seen in 30/43.
