Just look at the inside of the outer rail on the opposite track for a minute or two until you find that you can distinguish where one rail joins another. Then count the joints and as many rails as you pass in twenty seconds is the nurnber of miles your train is traveling an hour. Figure it out and you will find I'm right."
