Hello,
Production of T34s at the Stalingrad Tractor Factory continued right up until the factory was occupied by the Germans in October 42. It is reported that there were tanks coming of the production line and straight into combat as the Germans approached. After liberation production restarted in spring 43, after the factory was cleared of unexploded ordnance and the machinery reinstated.
