Panzerzug BP42 - German armoured train [NEW Tank]

[TheFirm_]

Hello there - Around a year ago, I created this replica of the german Panzerzug BP-42 for trains. I'm still working on the locomotive and will add some vehicles in the future (Panzer Wespe and a Beutepanzer Hotchkiss 35) with soldiers on the top as "passengers". Here's the current result and not the final :

- Panzertragerwagen
- Flakwagen
- Kommandowagen
- Geschützwagen
- Panzerlok BR57 + Tender

Very nice. I particularly like the Waffenträger-style howitzer mounts.

I wish you could tell me what was the problem directly other than doing it this way, but ok - I'll fix these pictures when I'll have the time to. Thanks for "telling me".

@TheFirm_ - You used temp image links from Discord. They are very unsuitable for forum posts as they expire after less than a day when pasted into anything other than Discord.

Use an image hosting site like IMGUR, imgbb, FLICKR etc etc.

Or the Trainz Gallery, which has never failed me even though it is somewhat crippled at the present.

It's all fixed, no worries now - I didn't know that

Medal of honor : Frontline is the game that introduced me to armoured trains and WW2 when I was young. Great memories too, this is some sort of a tribute... I do remember chasing Sturmgeist in the train while being shot by other trains... What a great level design.

As the title changed, new tank available for the train ! And it is a modified Lorraine 37L with a 122mm russian gun !

This is a fascinating topic/item.

Nice to see you finally added one of the vehicles you had yet to when i finally spoke to you properly about her. I do hope my comrade Joey told you of my situation as well.

 

[Bookman1960]

Any new updates on this wonderful project?

Thank you for sharing.

Pretty cool, for sure @TheFirm_

My only gameplay with WW2 armored trains has been in the FtP WW2 title, "Enlisted".

I play as a sniper racking up kills while sighting down the tracks as enemy infantry try to board/capture the train, or rifleman on roof popping them off as they sprint along the tracks.
Also love camping the tracks with a tank turret gun.
