| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Stolen Train (Bulgarian title Otkradnatiyat vlak, Russian title Ukradennyj poezd) is a 1971 Bulgarian-Soviet war movie. The story takes place in September 1944 when Bulgaria declared war to Germany. A group of high-rank German military and diplomatic personnel try to leave Bulgaria for neutral Turkey via a railroad.
The following weapons were used in the film The Stolen Train (Otkradnatiyat vlak):
Handguns
Walther P38
Many German and Bulgarian officers carry Walther P38 pistols.
Luger P08
Capt. Andrey Cherkezov (Stefan Ilyev) carries a Luger P08 pistol.
Tokarev TT-33
Soviet officers are armed with TT-33 pistols. They are mostly seen in holsters.
Makarov PM
An anachronistic Makarov PM is seen in hands of General Stenkenbauer (Uno Loit) in the final scene until he is disarmed by Soviet Lt. Rubashkin (Boris Tokarev). It can be used as a substitution for Walther PP.
Mauser Pocket Pistol
Darina (Dorotea Toncheva) carries a pistol that appears to be a Mauser Pocket Pistol, supposedly Model 1914.
Sauer 38H
In one scene the German ambassador (Alfred Rebane) is seen with a nickel plated Sauer 38H pistol.
Submachine Guns
MP40
Most German and Bulgarian guards in the train are armed with MP40 SMGs.

PPS-43
In one scene a guard in the train fires a PPS-43.
Rifles and Assault Rifles
Mannlicher M1896
Mannlicher M1896 carbines, a Bulgarian-issued version of Austro-Hungarian Mannlicher M1895, are used by Bulgarian soldiers.

A Sturmgewehr 44 is carried by Damyan (Dimitar Buynozov).
Machine Guns
Madsen
A Madsen machine gun is seen in Damyan's car. It is never used in action. The machine gun is seen only partially but can be identified due to the shape of the perforated barrel shroud and the flash hider.
Degtyaryov DP-27
A Degtyaryov DP-27 is seen in hands of a German guard in the train. It lacks its typical disk magazine and conical flash hider, supposedly to make it look different from the Soviet machine gun.
Nudelman-Rikhter NR-23
Highly anachronistic IL-28 jet bombers stand for Soviet bomber planes in several scenes. They are armed with Nudelman-Rikhter NR-23 auto guns.
AA Gun
A small caliber AA gun is briefly seen on a train. It's hard to identify it for sure thought it can be a 37-mm M1939 (61-K).
Hand Grenades
F-1 Hand Grenade
F-1 hand grenades are carried by Soviet soldiers and Bulgarian resistance fighters.
