Very impressive and quite scary Don.
The use of armoured trains has always seemed a little odd to me.
When you think of when they were first introduced (pre-internal combustion engine) then factor in how hide bound military theorists
tend to be it's not surprising that they hung around as long as they did.
I am guessing 20mm scale??? if so did you make this or buy it? anyway very good. Love the paint scheme
Besides, they're really cool.

Best reason I can think of!
That's rather impressive! You have to love an armoured train.
Trains were more efective than is usually supposed. I'm impressed! Bombastia is probably even now plotting to build something even larger and more mechanically unreliable :O)
Kind regards, Chris
