Watch the 'Catchting the Train competition - this is a race about catching an imaginary train. Each contestants brings a small suitcase with a complete set of clothes including shoes, jewellery and other accessories. They begin with a T-Shirt and shorts then have to dress up quickly then run 100 to 'catch the train'. The finishing line is where the imaginery train is. The first fully dressed contestant to cross the finishing line is the winner.
