Hi.

Is these Red Army or Wehrmacht captured train?
I cannot find meaning of train marking. IMO looks German?

Thank you all in advance

Hi Schlange

Well, it is difficult to ensure but I would say that this is a newly abandoned Soviet type OB-3 train...not yet put into service by the Germans

Hi Sturm 78,

I´m no expert in armoured trains, but the train on Your pic is a German train, because the first and the second waggon from the left are German railroad waggons model Erfurt and Linz. The last was used for the transport of a captured Russian tank. Here pics of these models.

Best regards

Bert

Thanks for your help, Bert

The BT-7 tank seems to have an AA machinegun on the turret....
The next wagon (the third) seems to have another BT-7 turret mounted on it.

Hi Sturm
It is very likely that there are actual BT-7 tank hulls in the train cars. Unserviceable or non running tanks were often used in this way.

nice pictures, any chance that there are pictures of the Panzerzug 10(a) and Panzerzug (s.Sp.) 204 ? First one was a captured polish train. My grandfather served on both and thats why i am interested in those two trains in particular.
