Very nice indeed !

I've had a fondness for armored trains of WWI-WWII, always saw such models as one step from a Weird WWI-WWII landship-dreadnought.

The motor propels it without problems. It has two heavy brass flywheels for steady rotation, cardanic shafts and worm gears driving a cogwheel transmission to power two of three axles per bogie...

Mind showing my age here but armored railway trains would be a good starting point to kitbash a WWWI-WWWII O.G.R.E. model if not a SOTR battlefield leviathan.
