Manufacturer description

A Railway gun (or railroad gun) is a large artillery piece, often surplus naval artillery, mounted on, transported by, and fired from a specially designed railway wagon. Many countries have built railway guns, but the best-known are the large Krupp-built pieces used by Germany in World War I and World War II.

Smaller guns were often part of an armoured train. Only able to be moved where there were good tracks, which could be destroyed by artillery bombardment or airstrike, railway guns were phased out after World War II.

MODEL
1:76 Scale Rail Gun Wagon decorated in WWI Camouflage livery. This model features lots of expertly applied details as based on the prototype, a high level of body detail and excellent running characteristics.

Note: This product includes a small Vacuum pipe which can be placed on the static model if desired. The vacuum pipe is located on the bogie located the opposite end from the barrel. This pipe will foul the movement of the bogie if you wish to run your wagon on your layout.
