Over my winter break I went to Florida. For the holidays, before I went to Florida, I got a new radar gun (see it in the photo below). I was really excited when I got it. Even though it's for baseball, I thought I could also use it to see how fast trains were in Florida. In Florida we didn't see a lot of trains but one day we got really lucky. We were playing catch at the beach with my radar gun to see how fast we could throw and on our way back we were first in line when the bars went down at the railway crossing.  It was for the Pompano Beach Tri-Rail commuter train.

My family shouted: "NATHAN, RADAR GUN! QUICK!"
I got the radar gun as fast as I could and I pointed it at the train and clicked the trigger. I found out after the train went by that it was going 24mph (38.6km).  (The photo below is of my throwing speed, we didn't take one of the train's speed).

We didn't see our usual amount of trains of Florida, but I'll write about seeing trains in my next post. Stay tuned!
