They would chase after enemy trains during the hours of darkeness prior to light before the engineers could hide the train in tunnels. This required long hours in the air where the second pilot became valuable for relief or emergencies. It did its job quite well. The speakers stressed the versatility of the twin design. After WWII the right side was designed for a radar operator. That mid section wing on some had eight 50 caliber machine guns. OUCH! Bob Penikas ************** What's for dinner tonight?
