Runaway Train - Table #7
Run Away Train is a quick light game. Story line: You are on a train car that has separated from the rest of the train and is now headed back down the hill towards the train station that is on a cliff that over looks thebay. The smart thing would be to jump now. But you still have a littletime before that happens and you would hate to see all your luggage goto the bottom of the bay. You might be able to get some of it off beforethe end of the tracks comes. So you start tossing it off the train.Problem...so is everyone else.
