HO scale Panzerzug 30, 1944 Configuration. custom kit i commissioned from modell3d
here is the listing on ebay, if your interested in this unique train! https://www.ebay.ca/itm/127812748950?_trksid=p4375194.c102726.m162918
FRENCH GUN BATTERY ON RAILWAY (1914 - 1918), date and gun type unknown but clearly very light in railway gun terms!
so i made a silly mistake the panzerzug from JARZĘBINA CZERWONA (Red Rowan) 1969 film actually was set up like this, PT nr.16 in front. the 2 Axle artillery car at the back was a fake/prop one, but this is what the real thing would have looked like. See below to compare to the movie!
https://youtu.be/_xYVNNVtMSA?si=hZNcl8WeRmBLL9ph the relevant scene starts at 1:49:33 where this monster just ups and parks its ass in the middle of the ruined city and starts blasting.
On my PC Desk, the Panzerzug layout from the Polish (1960) Movie Red Rowan in Glorious HO!
On the topic of fortress bridges: this amazing photo from the American Civil War shows a Fortified rail bridge over the Cumberland river near Nashville, Tennessee 1864, [634x640] yes its a war train, cuz rail bridge, at war.
This is the Kerch Bridge, in 2022. for anybody who sees this (i got taken in too) it is being used by bad actors on both sides. Pro Ru are claiming it is Kiev Bridge, pro Ukraine saying its a current attack on the Kerch bridge. this is 4 year old footage.
Yes it's a war train, because it a railroad bridge, with burning train, in a war situation.
this guy on twitter claimed it was current footage of Kerch Bridge: https://x.com/IuliiaMendel/status/1578654995821768704?s=20 the entire comment section myself included jumped on him saying it was Kiev bridge (it is not) or just copium (which is why the guy posted it, now of all times)
See? i am not a Kremlin agent. I listen when people say facts do not match. and the bridge here does not match the images of Kievs bridges i could find.
actual Kiev Bridge attacks: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/03/world/europe/russia-ukraine-bridges-kyiv.html and https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/cmglwkyl9djyo
plenty more western coverage is available.
French Indochina Armoured Train: La Rafale (early version from 1950), it was set up and garrisoned by the 2nd Regiment of the Foreign Legion. "Each train is proceeded by legionaries patrolling for mines/ambushes. Once a week a legionnaire steps on a mine, other times it is a train"
8.8cm Eisenbahnflak battery, just one gun, with both 2 and 4 axle soviet wagons, complete with musical band, fire control wagon with stereoscopic rangefinder on the roof, (i think), and what i am assuming are parts and ammo and crew accommodation wagons.
Photo i was not previously aware of, showing a dual Flak 88 railway carriage, thanks to u/Diamondcreepah and u/Catriks!
u/catriks provided the Bundsarchiv link to this photo as well! https://www.bild.bundesarchiv.de/dba/en/search/?query=Bild%20101I-638-4208A-25
Anglo-boer war British armoured train passing by at Ludicrous Speed! the Original shot was so fast you can't make any details out so i slowed it down. Any help IDing the train would be great.

1950, the USA 7th fleet evacuates Nationalist Collaborators for the 3rd time. establishing the permanent anti Chinese puppet state of Taiwan. Go ahead ban me.
Armoured train from Rolling Fortress (1960) featuring the self-propelled three turreted MBV-2 in its consist behind the front two low sided 2 axle cars. Here MBV-2 is used merely as a standard non self-propelled artillery wagon role.
Soviet MBV-2, self-propelled armoured train, 1942 counter attack, Leningrad front: in ww 2, the USSR had 2 of these unique machines. Both survived the war and still exist. It was armed with three tank turrets, literally a battleship on land in appearance and use!
Partisans vs train, unknown artist. would appreciate more info.
found this picture on twitter. Just a normal "anti-bandit" measure taken by Nazi train guards with an MG-34 on AA tripod. date and place not known.
General Anonenkov: Ultimate Trading Train Game! photos of the same train Russian built General Anonenkov in different national liveries' first Russian, then German, THEN it was donated to the Finns by the Germans, as Armoured Train No.1 who still have the train in the Parola Armour Museum!
Fun fact, the Germans also donated Lenin to the Russians. FUNNY HOW THAT WORKS!
to the self proclaimed "Anti-Nazi" U/Damocule I have previously banned Zionists, and holocaust deniers. WarTrains has many posts on Soviet, Russian, Chinese, Czeck and other stuff. It's clearly history that is making you uncomfortable. not "Glorification of Nazi Military Hardware"
You are correct, you DO NOT speak for me, nor my audience (aside from previously banned ones) only yourself and your own pathetic insecurities which requires history you don't like to be removed.
