Landships II

Hello Thylacine,

There is a rare Austrian Armored train kit out there, Here is the review on Landships Main page:

http://www.landships.freeservers.com/new_pages/fsf_ah_armtrain_kit.htm

There is one small problem, I have been trying to find this companys models all year, and it is truly a "Deadlocked Trench  situation" for my part as the company that produces this and other WWI models has been out-of-business since 2006 or 2008.

However, Try the links posted on the review, They may have some old stock left, as Austro-Hungary and WWI trains in general do not recieve much attention.

Also, 5-Star produces two Railguns.  Here is the French railgun review:

It goes without saying but it is a MOST COMPLICATED KIT to assemble.

Here is a review for the German railgun:

This Kit needs to  be backdated from a WW2 to the WWI version.

Finally for a good starting point, especially for troop trains, Reviresco produces a good engine, with alittle time, effort, and research, you could rework it into an armored model. to find them just go to:

Hope this all helps.
