I was going to post this last night before I went to bed. But waited for more into about it with the second video being posted about five hours ago. The first video happened about a day ago. The second the bigger picture of the fleet being moved.

Having been a Charlie G gunner when re-roled as infantry for UN tours I can safely say that if they fire that recoilless rifle over the front of the vehicle the driver and commander need to have some serious ear protection!

Petbat now you leave my family out of it!
Even the locomotives are armored.
This is the closest I can come at the moment. It’s a Piko I bought in Berlin in ‘84 or so.
I may have this one squirreled away, but I’ll have to dig for it in my crates of Piko Stuff, which are a little hard to access at the moment.
It’s a lot closer, but still not 100% correct. Would make for a cool dio though.
This is what we need, a 2TE10M/3TE10M.
Uh oh. There’s one on eBay:

Still, a diorama celebrating the return of passenger rail service in Ukraine would be cool. Especially with a few flat cars at the end with some of Russia’s finest armor being brought back for refurbishing.
Yeah, some of those.
