    And I can't imagine the crew being exactly ecstatic if they lose a couple of track pins. Jacko's right - a stack of sleepers staggered down from the wagon bed would be the way to go.

      I seem to recall a highly regarded tank commander under air attack tried this unprepped maneuver & rolled his Tiger II.

        Looking at the picture a bit more I'd say that the train is derailed after an attacked, maybe looking for a quick escape?!

            That was posted on Nov 4th - I've just found out what Kung means!

              Looking again, I wonder how the wagon and grey panzer in the background got across the field without digging in, unless it’s the Border models logo….. :tongue-out3: Quite a strange illustration really…..

                Love it chaps you don't think your all reading a bit to much into it its box top illustration a bit of artistic licence ,not look at it and go yeh as if that could happen ,let's be honest they have to large it up a bit to make theirs stand out on the shelf from the other hundreds of mk 4's ,im not sure if I'm reading to much into it now but the panzer grey one at the back I think is there as one of the four schemes of markings(as quoted on the box).
                As I said love it dont think it upset you all much as the Chinese tank?with the San Francisco bridge in the background.

                  You do realise you said that on a forum on the Internet, right?

                    Certainly some unusual markings there

                      The old Matchbox Bf 109 E also had Romanian markings, I always thought they looked better than the German crosses
