Armored Train Built During The Cold War Found Abandoned On The Tracks Of Croatia; Structure Impresses With Improvisation And Resistance.

An armored train with heavy machine guns, covered with steel and concrete plates, was found stationary and rusty on the tracks of Croatia.

During the Cold War, the former Yugoslavia built imposing military structures to protect its territory. Today, some of these constructions remain intact, but completely abandoned.

Underground Base In Mostar

Among the highlights is an underground hangar in Mostar, built to house MiG-21 fighters. The structure was U-shaped, with separate entrances and exits. After the end of Yugoslavia, the base was left aside.

The Armored Train Of Split

Another curious point is the armored train of Split in Croatia. It was hastily developed in 1991 by the Croatian Army, with support from the National Railway and the Brodosplit shipyard.

The EMD G26 locomotive and the cars were reinforced with steel plates up to 8 mm, applied over concrete layers up to 50 mm. The interior of the cars shows the improvised effort for protection. Despite the preparation, the train never saw combat.

The T-55 Tank

The tour ends with the T-55 tank, considered the most produced in military history, with about 95 thousand units. During the Yugoslav Wars, from 1991 to 2001, this model was used by various armies, with equipment inherited from the former Yugoslav Army.

The T-55 had a 100 mm cannon, in addition to a turret with limited internal space, shown in detail in the images recorded by the channel.

Even without current use, these structures remain visible landmarks of a period marked by tension.

Today, the empty tunnels, rusty cars, and abandoned tanks tell part of the region’s history with images that blend military past and silent abandonment.

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Ethiopia has banned gasoline and diesel cars, placed over a hundred silent electric buses on the streets of Addis Ababa, and now aims for half a million electric vehicles by 2030, all powered by Africa’s largest dam and a courage that few countries have shown.

Egypt wants to draw 10 million cubic meters of water from the Nile per day into the desert, irrigate a new agricultural frontier, and build a city where there is currently only sand.

Norway is drilling 27 kilometers of rock 392 meters below the bottom of a fjord to build the world’s largest and deepest underwater road tunnel — when completed, a 21-hour journey will be reduced to 10.

An astronaut spent 340 days in space while his twin brother stayed on Earth, and NASA found a “rejuvenating” effect, genes, microbiome, cognition, and immune system that revealed the biological cost of living outside the planet.

Chinese engineers begin filling a 217-meter dam at an altitude of 3,000 meters and prepare a 2,240 MW hydroelectric power plant to integrate hydropower, solar, and wind energy in the upper Jinsha.

While many elderly people still face difficulties seeing due to lack of access, Porto Alegre already delivers free glasses within 10 days for those over 60 and can benefit 320,000 people.

Earth has hidden “scars” at a depth of 2,900 km, and scientists have just discovered that ancient plates still stir the planet’s interior.

Ozempic may have an unexpected effect beyond weight loss: study with nearly 100,000 people links semaglutide to reduced depression and anxiety.

Engineers in Hawaii use chilled water drawn from the ocean depths to cool entire buildings, reduce energy consumption by up to 70%, and unveil a technology that could leave air conditioners in the past.

Researchers walked 4.6 kilometers through the sertão of Paraíba and found hundreds of rock carvings scattered across rocks — what could be Brazil’s largest archaeological site was hidden on a rural property 20 km from Catolé do Rocha.

The biggest climatic tragedy ever recorded in the South of Brazil buried a family winery in mud, destroying machinery and production, but the family managed to transform the multi-million dollar loss into a new beginning with a limited edition of wines rescued from the disaster.
