Abstract
Three persons of the authors are high school students and they produced a compressed air blowing (pneumatic) railway model based on Brunel's Atmospheric Railway in cooperation with some universities. This railway model presents them some problems to be challenged and solved by them analyzing data from experiments. Their research activities as the project SPP (Science Partnership Project) of Soma High School gives them a lot of intentions for science, engineering, and monodzukuri. The authors report a summary of the activities and with the results obtained. Our objective is to complete this model for practical use in Japan in the near future.
