EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the Czech armored train, Orcik, in action during the tumultuous year of 1918. The image captures a pivotal moment in history when the Czechoslovak Legion, a military force composed of Czech and Slovak volunteers, assumed control of a section of the Trans-Siberian Railway in the midst of the Russian Civil War. The Orcik, a formidable armored train, was a crucial asset for the Czechoslovak Legion in their efforts to maintain order and secure resources in the vast Siberian terrain. The train was equipped with armored cars, each mounted with machine guns and cannons, providing both mobility and firepower. The Czechoslovak Legion's presence in Siberia was a result of their alliance with the Entente powers during World War I. After the collapse of the Russian Empire, the Legion was tasked with protecting the interests of the new Czechoslovak state in the eastern part of the former Russian Empire. The control of the Trans-Siberian Railway was essential for the transportation of troops, supplies, and resources to support the Legion's efforts. The Orcik armored train played a significant role in the Legion's military campaigns in Siberia, allowing them to defend against various factions vying for power in the region. The train's presence not only secured the railway but also served as a symbol of Czechoslovak sovereignty and determination during a time of great turmoil. This photograph is a testament to the rich and complex history of the Czechoslovak Legion and their role in the Russian Civil War. The Orcik armored train stands as a reminder of the resilience and courage of the Czech and Slovak soldiers who fought for their nation's future in the far reaches of Siberia.
