Hello guys..

Im in need of some pictures of Army vehicle transport by train, USA around the 1950s..

I got a Big Boy which is in need of some work, so i am thinking of making a military transport.
Can anybody help put here?

Pictures?
Or maybe some bids on which wagons should be used, and what type of tanks would do got on them..


Best Regards - Frank

Google search US Army Rail Transport to see photos and links pertaining to that topic. You could also search for Union Pacific military transport to see if any photos from that particular railway come up.
