The largest and heaviest armoured fighting vehicles in history have attracted surprisingly little popular or academic attention. But don’t miss out on these land leviathans – ride with me into the world of ARMOURED TRAINS! 🧵

Would you guys like me to discuss the Soviet Railway Troops after I finish the final installment in the Pipeline Troops series? If not, what branch would you like to see explored?

This UCRB example we suspect is the last remaining example in the world, a legacy of the 1944-45 NW Europe Campaign. The UCRB was used as prolifically as the more well known Bailey bridge but history has forgotten its widespread use by RE Tn in NW Europe and Italy. – at London, England
