Leap on a moving train... jump from carriage to carriage... duck under fast-approaching bridges.
But before you do anything, make sure it's with Sinclair's new action-packed game - 'Stop the Express'.
That way you can try dramatic feats like Buster Keaton's - without risking your neck!
'Stop the Express' is one of five exciting new games from Sinclair. It's graphics are superbly fast and sharp. The action is non-stop. And the challenge is a very tough one.
On top of a racing express, you're chased by knife-throwing bandits. And inside the express, there's even more trouble.
Will you ever get to the front and halt the train? Or will you be well and truly bumped off?

The graphics were excellent for the time and the sound effects were apt but this is quite a simple game that is more frustrating than entertaining.Pokes Available
