UMT 613 Armored train of type OB-3 No,1 of the 23D Battalion Scale 1:72 Plastic Model Armoured Train Kit

OB-3 Armored Train No.1 of the 23rd Battalion in 1/72 scale is a plastic model kit by UMT representing a Soviet armored train used during World War II. Armored trains were designed to protect railway lines, support ground operations, and provide mobile firepower along strategic rail corridors.

The Soviet Union operated numerous armored trains during the war, combining armored locomotives, artillery wagons, and support cars into self-contained mobile formations. These trains could patrol railway networks, escort supply routes, and reinforce defensive positions in areas where rail infrastructure was vital.

OB-3 Armored Train - Soviet Railway Combat Unit

Armored trains such as the OB-3 type were organized into specialized battalions responsible for protecting key rail lines and transport hubs. Individual trains were numbered and operated as mobile units capable of moving quickly between sectors of the railway system to support defensive operations.

For modelers: Armored train models often include multiple rail vehicles that benefit from careful alignment during assembly. Ensuring the wagon frames and wheelsets sit level will help the finished model display correctly on a rail base or railway-themed diorama.
