Hi, Chris,
In your reference links at the bottom of the sidebar, Dr. Niehorster’s website is now at http://www.niehorster.org/.
The Soviet armoured trains pictures are now at http://www.armchairgeneral.com/rkkaww2/galleries/Arm_trains.htm and the maps link from the same site is at
http://www.armchairgeneral.com/rkkaww2/maps.htm
The Russian armoured trains link (3rd from bottom) is also broken but the new site for tdg.nu (http://www.tdg.nu/index.html) only seems to have the index page (I can’t find any links). No luck on the Wayback Machine either. (The TOAW Design Group’s forums-not articles-seem to be at http://www.savemstateathletics.com/tdg/viewforum.php?f=8).
Blessings,
Dave

Dear Dave,
Thanks for the update on the links, it is much appreciated. I don’t check them as often as I should, so I usually only find out if I use them myself or someone alerts me as you have done. Your nudge has prompted me to do a bit of Spring cleaning 🙂
Kind regards, Chris.
