Pzkpfw-e  Thank You for your addition to my small amount of knowledge, about this interesting off shoot of early armor.  getsmileyCA01OWOH.gif

My next project is to build the 1/35 scale Talkom St. Chamond. So seeing your post was very enlightening.  While that model comes without any interior parts your post gives me the sense of how close the quarters were. 

This does give me some thought as to what interior parts I could perhaps scratch build, where I to open a hatch or the door.

Using the correct French form "Saint-Chamond" seems to me an appropriate thing but it's hardly surprising that "St Chamond"

crept into the English speaking world - check out the title of the  pair of stereo images.

Regards,

Charlie

Ahh, Yes I see your point. getsmileyCAGO35YW.gif Use of the French language naming convention, to reference the armored vehicle in question, is no doubt best.  The abbreviated use of "St." is doubtless a grammatical fault for English language speakers and those to whom English is a second language.  

Case in point; the model makers, Talkom's use of "St. Chamond" on their product.  Other examples to be noticed are on our own pages of  Landships II  Tank Articles . facepalm_zps53dc553a.gif

As pervasive as the use of the abbreviation seems to be, it is a very good thing to point out the correct nomenclature, for all our benefit and for better, more accurate, communication.

 Also a Thank You to CharlieC for his clarifying contribution. yo_zps642db12e.gif
