THIS MONTH'S COVER: WHOOOOOSH' The world's fastest train screams down its 10,000-foot track, dips its gaudy mouth into a water trough and slams to a stop. The train is incredibly fast-so fast it's traveling 1000 miles per hour approximately two seconds after it starts its run! Installed at the Air Force Flight Test Center, Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., it is used to test parachutes, aircraft wings or other aerodynamic shapes at high speed. There are no passengers aboard the strang8 train - its powerful rockets send it roaring down the track at the push of a button. It glides along on rail-gripping slippers, and instead of braking itself, it gobbles up water by the tan, which comes spewing out its "ears" to slow it to a safe stop. Information obtained from the high-speed tests supplements wind-tunnel and actual flight data. Turn to page 162 to learn how "double headers" are used on the strange railroad.
