Oh, very cool. I scratch built a Jeffrey Poplavko. Now I can use it when I set up my Czech train!

Great source of information, thanks for posting.
Always wanted an armoured train but space precludes it.

Couple more images:

This is interesting, look at the second wagon from the front...are those two pillboxes built on the wagon?

With the right 'base' train, and your modelling skills, I can see a thing of beauty emerging.  What's folk experience for getting a good value base train model?

[smirnoff]

Teamzters do carriages of the size I want, need to strip one down and see what can be done with a rebuild
Have bogey wheels being cast as we speak
Company B flat beds will work for some wagons
But any further suggestions welcome
Especially plastic kits for railway models in the right(ish) scale

[Ignatieff]

I've got some company B flat beds and other bits you can have if you want.

[smirnoff]

Excellent
I will gladly take them off your hands

For suitable armoured cars see: http://www.landships.info/landships/models.html

These are paper models and make fantastic additions that can also easilly be printed then to the scale you want most included are either 1/72 or 1/43 in scale. So ideal for 20mm or 25/8mm wargaming.
