Look at the true Guinness Book of Records 2001 
And hier is a note about the record in Elk/Poland, from the page 268 of Polish edition of Guinness Book of Records 2002, and then two events connected with the promotion of Polish record holders (pages 269 & 276):
Is there anybody who does not know how to play the train game? Just line-up yourself in a row, grab the person standing in front of you, and move together into the fantasy tour around the world.
"The Train of Tuwim" is a game on the big scale. During the first tour of Sieradz / Poland, the train length reached 787 children "wagons". Unfortunately, the train "de-railed", and none of the children reached the last station.
During the play children get free commemorative tickets with information about sponsors and organizers. The train starts, runs and stops when ordered by the station-master. The train stops on the "stations" built by sponsors of this unique journey to the fairy land.
The background of this train journey is a concert of songs to the most popular poems by Julian Tuwim. Julian Tuwim is a well known Polish 20-th century poet, who wrote specifically for children. The concert is performed by the composer Waldemar Jablonski, who also created the idea of this game as well.
"The Train of Tuwim" is dispatched by the "authentic" station-master. This function is performed usually by the youngest participant of the game. At the last station of the train route - there is a lottery: the lucky ticket holders receive gifts.

"The Train of Tuwim", as a competition has been enrolled into the registry of world's Guinness Book of Records. In Polish edition of the Guinness Book this game was described on page 224 with references in topical and names index (see Waldemar Jablonski). The record presented in in the Register was already beaten. In the edition of 2002 the record is described on page 268.
One should add that on the authentic long-distance train route (Lodz-Terespol/Poland) courses real train "Tuwim". Its godfather is Marcel Szytenchelm - chief of Theathre Studio "Slup" from Lodz/Poland. Observing this initiative Waldemar Jablonski has invented the open air game in making children`s train, which runs the world around and someday, certainly, will take you with.
In scenery of children`s games, Waldemar Jablonski presently promtes Polish classic`s poetry for children. He sings with guitar his own songs and conducts the trains built from children, which ride streets along to the accompaniment of Tuwim`s famous piece "The Lokomotive". He has in musical output several songs to the most popular poems written by Julian Tuwim. They sounds during "The Train of Tuwim" show. Apart from this he wrote several songs to the most popular poems for kids written by other Polish classics: Jan Brzechwa, Ludwik Jerzy Kern, and Aleksander Fredro`s fairy tales. He put into practice other own programmes "Lets sing to kids", "Dead telephone", "Cold-warm", "The Primer of the World" and Music Portraits of Towns. The Songs based on poems written by Julian Tuwim, Jan brzechwa, Ludwik Jerzy Kern and Aleksander Fredro`s fairy tales were recorded in S-1 Radio Lodz`s Studio.
One should recall about onother one event, which is connected with the person of Julian Tuwim. It is organized by Marcel Szytenchelm The International "Tuwim`s Day". Full of meaning was prior the unveiling of the monument-sculpture "The Bench of Tuwim" in centre of Lodz / Poland.
