Running The Gauntlet
#1

A dramatic moment on June 23rd 1941 when a Russian supply train headed by an elderly STCH locomotive runs the gauntlet of a roving Ju87B Stuka. Will the tired old engine give it's all and get away?

The picture is a modified screenshot from Microsoft Train Simulator. The scenery is actually italian, the Milano-Bologna 1900 route, and the engine and rolling stock downloaded from a Russian website. The stuka is pure IL2. The additional foliage and grassy fields come from photos taken in the countryside around Swindon, England.

Swindon has lots of things. The neolithic people built stone rings here, the Iron Age warriors built hillforts, the Romans built a town, the Saxons built another one, and the man who would become the first king of England fought a battle here in 825AD (and won, despite attacking an army numbering up to ten times as many men). We had liquor smugglers and canals in the 18th century, railways in the 19th, and various aircraft were manufactured here in WW2 such as Miles Masters, Short Stirlings, and Supermarine Spitfires. Oh yeah. We have grass too Big Grin
