Utah Bob #35998 15,861 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Much bigger. Railroad gun I'd say. That's the loading platform. Crane behind him for lifting shells into the loading cradle. Link to post Share on other sites

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 7,032 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 155mm is 6.1 inches. That looks somewhat bigger. The soldier looks to be British. I guestimate his sleeve cuff as 4 inches acros, the round could easily be 14" in diameter. Wikipedia says the Brits had railway guns of 12, 13.5, 14 and 18 inches (and 9.2 but this looks to be bigger than that). Link to post Share on other sites

Subdeacon Joe 25,836 Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 I didn't post ANY images, but I got a BS message saying I had posted more than allowed. Let me guess...you tried to quote one of the earlier posts that had an image in it. If you quote it, then highlight and delete the image, then the text will show and you won't get that message. Just a glitch in the system. Link to post Share on other sites
