As much as armoured trains are useless in combat, and as much of a reactionary Trotsky turned out to be after Lenin's death, the three of Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin chugging around Russia in armoured fucking trains kicking the white army's ass was perhaps the coolest thing that has ever happened besides the nazis getting obliterated at Kursk and in Berlin, and China whooping America in the not too distant future.
don’t forget when China whipped America’s ass in the 50s. they almost kicked them off of the Korean peninsula. the world would be a safer place had they finished the job

I want to see Trotsky come back like the Army of the Dead on LotR; like he can atone for all his sins by leading an army of ghost to world revolution.
Rasputin from Hellboy only it's Trotsky and his minions have papers to sell you - or else.
I think this would steam from imposter syndrome. Simply become a red army soldier and you won't have this issue.
"and they must wear tight fitting fullbody leather jumpsuits... For reasons of the revolution"

by the way the red isn't just artistic license of whoever colorized the photo. The leather outfits really were red
I just want a Russian Civil War mod for Red Dead Redemption 2
I like how the Armoured Division Private and the Pilot are both looking at the Train Crewman like they're jealous of his cool red leather suit
Armored trains are so cool. It's sad that they were really only viable for like 10 years
Why did Trotsky have an armored train, is this viral marketing for Back to the Future 4?
Amazing they had time to promote Back to the Future 4 with a war going on
Not only did he have an armored train he would travel around in to command the red army and do political agitation, it had a dedicated car for a printing press operation, his fucking armored train had its own newspaper.
We give the trots a lot of shit, but there is genuinely so much to admire about Trotsky the historical person that even the most ardent ML has to at least like the guy on some level (as much as you can like a guy who died in 1940 anyway).
how's this guys supposed to sell newspapers they didn't even give him a table
