Think about this...

Spawn points could be associtated not with the train, but with the rail line. A line could have spawn points scattered along it for whatever reason, and when a train was driven to and stopped at the spawn...the train could be a source of vehicles not unlike a carrier near a seaside base...

That would certainly make trains a very desirable target as well as asset.

My real job is a railroad engineer for over 35 years. If Hi Tech wants some ideas for trains I would offer my assistance with my knowledge. This does not include the terrain editor. Just movement.

I agree with subject, but I would like to add to reply about spawn point near the rail road, that would mean increasing the lethality of the train to give some what of a fighting chance against a tank, just my thoughts on that.

The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB
