TS.FI : Train Wreck

Every May here in Leutonia, the Premier and his family visit the National Spring Festival, where they take the traditional tour of the fairgrounds on the world’s only 62%-scale miniature railroad while enjoying a delicious snack of cabbage rolls and coffee.

Thanks Otto for the great find. You can see the original on the TS website. The article seems to be about when Sweden’s King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia make an official visit to Finland.

Thanks Yves. The original can be found in “La Presse“, Montreal. Seems to be a bad month for the luxury car makers (Ferrari, Porsche).
