Polish armoured train Nr.13 ("Generał Sosnkowski")

NCY-152

Polish armoured train Nr.13 ("Generał Sosnkowski") Left side view of the armoured train Nr.13 damaged and abandoned due to bombardment. Move direction was to the left. A 250-kg bomb threw a leading artillery wagon and a locomotive off of the track, leaving a huge crater, and the fast moving train drove several dozens meters more by inertia (the locomotive was typically driving rearwards in combat alert, so that a commander's post was forward). The train's composition was standard for the Polish trains - from the left: a flatcar, the first artillery wagon, the armoured locomotive, an assault wagon, the second artillery wagon and the second flatcar (not visible are two additional wagons of auxiliary section, attached to the train to the right).
