Polish armoured train

Another project that's been on hold for a while, because of poor health, but will be revitalized in due time, is the 1939 Polish armored train PP-52 in 1:25 scale.

As a template, I use an (also Polish) paper model in the proper scale.

Some things have bee slightly altered so the monster can run on my G-scale 45mm tracks.

The template:

The first to be built was the engine, complete with tender with commander's cupola, and radio aerial wires.

Next in line was the first of two artillery cars:

Followed by what is described as the "infantry assault car," again with aerial wires (not shown in this pic). 

Next will be two flat cars, to run om both ends of the train, with as their main function the detection of mines etc. This is as far as I got:

Yes, I know it's possible to buy complete bogies, but what's the fun in that?

The final bit, whenever I get to it, will be the second artillery car - but that is still a few thousand hand cut rivets down the road...
