Here is a naval gun on a WD flat. Lots of cribbing and crates for the hardware. These War Department flats were used for vehicles and other tall things; bent for the clearances in the UK.

Image

I used a PSC stiff-leg hoist in this vignette, used to unload the guns for fitting on ships in this pier-scene

Here is a second gun loaded on a solid-tyre yard trailer. The trailer is one Carworks did in brass and few people besides me bought, apparently.

I have more, long as folks don't mind them not being 'Murcan O :lol: :lol: :lol:

I can't reduce the size of these in my current online configuration. These are iPhone photos uploaded on my iPhone.
