Summary

[edit]
Description

Locomotive of the 'Type 94 Armoured Train' of the Imperial Japanese Army. On a cold December Sunday in 1945, we drove northwest from Seoul, Korea, planning to visit the 38th Parallel again. We came upon this armored train on the way. Apparently, the Japanese had built it to help repel an invasion. We then drove across a river on a railroad bidge and had a friendly visit with the Russians. However, they wouldn't let us take any pictures. I found this interesing site about Japan's use of armored trains in Manchuria:

Maybe this train came from Manchuria.

Looking at the large size, I found interesting details.
