Ooh pretty. Thanks, mate.

Looks like a fun game. Maybe there's something in this RCW/Back of Beyond lark after all.

I strongly suspect itīs the old HLBSC Austro-Hungarian Armoured Train. If Iīm not mistaken, however, they stopped doing resin vehicles some years ago, didnīt they?

Lovely pics.

@Grimm: Vapnartak is a wargames convention in York, IIRC. I hope to go there in 2010 when Iīm over in Hull for a year.

Very nice indeed. 8)

Talking about armoured trains, will have a scenario (true account) of a BOB for the folks interested in this area and with the imminent release of Company Bs armoured train.

More shortly folks as I get my typing fingers into gear.

Best Wishes.

No, the matchbox is much larger being 1/48. This looks like the rather small (more 1/64 than 1/60) Copplestone one.
