No movie sadly but the always good Panzermuseum.com now has some decent shots and an article on the German A7V Replica:

Have we had the Soviet Jet train yet?

Quote:
Soviet Union techonlogy had some interesting ideas back in the day. Here is one from 1970s where two jet engines from Yak-40 airplane were put on a train car so it could reach speeds of up to 250km/h which is around 180mph
