That would look sooooo good with my K5 gun. Maybe it will fit on the same set of tracks included in the gun.

Thanks for the heads up!

At one of the Toy Shows in Europe earlyer this year. Trumpeter showed some mock-up armoured train cars. I just wish they would bring them out soon. DML needs to rerelease their rooling stock as well. As far as the track, Trumpeter's and DML's track is the same wight. I have ussed both together, no problum.....

Wow! Looks wonderful, I like this German machinery, it`s so ugly, so look beautiful!

Will it be correct to attach Panzerjagerwagen to it?

Hi
I like that could do a lot more with that in a diorama than the larger steam offering.
shunting in a goods yard with troops waiting to load up oh the idea's are starting to work.
very nice keep it up trumpeter.
