The Soviets also received rail engines and cars via lend lease historically. As they basically stopped building them to concentrate on tanks/artillery and other war material. In all reality this probably just maintain the soviet rail net, and Im not sure it would rate giving the soviets more in total rail cap...as the new equipment would just be replacing used up and destroyed equipment since they weren't really building anymore themselves. Is a lot of fiction about how great the soviet war economy was. They built a lot of tanks, artillery, and aircraft because that's what all their remaining heavy industry basically converted to. Lend Lease was huge assistance to the Soviet union when it comes to their logistical and transportation requirements....not to mention even food for their people and Army. Even aviation fuel/higher grade fuel was from lend lease. The game probably needs a Germany victory condition that is reached if all of European/most of European Russia is taken oven. As the economy of the Soviet Union would have collapsed. or maybe extra VPs for the Germans for holding certain positions until they get an auto win. The not one step back order for Stalingrad was because Stalin realized they couldn't afford to lose anymore ground due to the economic situation in the country. They needed all the remaining natural resources to just continue the war even with lend lease.
