Orlyk train consisting of two armoured carriages, locomotive and tender.
"Orlyk", Orlik or Eagle, is one of the longer serving of the Hunhuz trains. It was a heavy rebuild of upgraded style carriages performed by Bolshevik forces. The original low gun casemates were replaced by far taller turrets with a greater arc of fire.
It gained fame after being united with the "Zaamurets" armoured rail car (available seperately) and was used by the Czechoslovak Legion in their journey along the Trans-Siberian railway. After arriving in Vladivostok its fate is dubious, changing hands between the Japanese army, White Russian forces, Chinese Warlords and finally the Kwantung Army at the eve of WWII.
The trains are provided with wheels to fit O gauge or OO/HO gauge track
