Every so often train videos are posted so thought a dedicated train thread might be nice.
To start,
There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.
I know they clouded the air with filthy smoke and covered everything around them with grime and soot....but damn, they were impressive machines.

I remember in 1990 taking the train from Germany into Prague Czechoslovakia and being surprised when I saw all the steam trains still in use as we pulled into the main train yards in Prague.
