Here’s a fascinating subject for a railway-theme model (either for a layout or as a static diorama piece) … Hitler’s planned ‘Breitspurbahn’ locomotive and carriages. For those who are not familiar with this, it was the Fuhrer’s ambition for a ‘super train’ with double-decker coaches, that would run on a 3,000mm wide track. Evidently, the initial plan was for this to operate from France, via the Netherlands, Germany and Russia, all the way to India. Of course, with the defeat of the Third Reich, the whole idea became a fantasy; the concept progressed no further than the drawing board.
