Italian railgun 381/40 AVS

Hi to all,

new year has brought new modelling contest on the italian site modellismopiù. The contest is about the italian front during the First World War. The model I chose is this italian railgun, built at the beginning of the 1917 and used only 'till the end of the war.

You can find information on this railgun to this page of Wikypedia

Is in Italian but I have this not found in english.



I started with the wheels: diameter 1 meter, italian standard gauge 1435 mm.

14 axles divided into three bogies. A load for each axis about of 15 ton.



That's what I did........
