Alpo Posted September 18, 2024 Posted September 18, 2024 That title made me think the truck was carrying shells. Not a cannon.
Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted September 18, 2024 Posted September 18, 2024 Wonderin' if the gun is FUBAR....
Texas Maverick Posted September 18, 2024 Posted September 18, 2024 Didn't look like there were any cars in front of the truck so not sure why he just sat there on the tracks. Couldn't tell if he high centered or something else. What a mess. TM

Texas Joker Posted September 19, 2024 Posted September 19, 2024 Not uncommon for drop decks like that to get stuck on those raised tracks. Even van trailers can hang up their landing gear on those humped crossbucks.
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted September 19, 2024 Posted September 19, 2024 60 + tons of tank and more of the trailer and tractor didn't stand much of a chance against a freight train.

Chickasaw Bill SASS #70001 Posted September 19, 2024 Posted September 19, 2024 given the way the cannon spun around after a couple of hits , bent barrel , traverse ring busted , at a minimum CB

Like Cyprus Sun said, high centered. Look around on youtube. there are a LOT of those there. It doesn't take a lot with a long, low trailer and a even slightly raised crossing.
irish ike, SASS #43615 Posted September 19, 2024 Posted September 19, 2024 Hello Progressive. I need to make an accident claim on a tracked field artillery unit. What do you mean I don't have comprehensive coverage?
Eyesa Horg Posted September 19, 2024 Posted September 19, 2024 They might need State Farm! At least they've seen a thing or two!
