With three cars and a locomotive, the guns and support troops of the train can halt any German attack.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe history of Polish armoured trains started shortly after Poland gained independence in 1918. They were one of the most important weapons in the war against Bolsheviks in 1919 and 1920, and the other conflicts that shaped the borders of Poland. Dozens of improvised armoured trains fought between 1918 and 1921. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe armoured trains saw action from the very first day of the war. On 1 September, two FT-17 tanks from train No. 13, Generał Sosnkowski, took part in the defence of Vistula bridge in Tczew. Meanwhile, its train was sent south and reached Ciechanów where fighting was already under way. On the same day armoured train No. 12, Poznańczyk, was operating in support of 56th Infantry Regiment and its fire helped to stop German advance near Cieszków.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe artillery of the armoured trains provided both direct and indirect fire support. Armoured train No. 53, Śmiały, supported the defence of Mokra by the Wołyńska Cavalry Brigade against the German 4th Panzer Division, destroying a number of German tanks with direct fire over open sights. On the other hand armoured train No. 11, Danuta, stopped the advance of German 24th Infantry Division with artillery fire. German counterbattery fire had difficulty in ranging on the constantly moving train.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTHIS PRODUCT CONTAINS:\n\n1x resin and metal Locomotive;\n1x resin and metal Assault Car;\n2x resin and metal Artillery Cars\neach with 1x 100mm Heavy Artillery Turret, and 2x 75mm Light Artillery Turret\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThese miniatures are supplied unassembled and unpainted","brand":"Little Big Wars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67606655336757,"sku":"FOW PBX05","price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/8783\/5198\/files\/fow_20pbx05-iamge1.png?v=1790806764","url":"https:\/\/littlebigwars.com\/products\/flames-of-war-early-war-polish-armoured-train","provider":"Little Big Wars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
