Hi, does anyone know if there any drawings available for this gun and its associated 60cm rail transportation equipment. Over the years I have collected a few photos of these guns but not enough to build a model. I already make the shell handling crane these guns used and the system1888 artilery wagon and bogies. I would love to make the transporting frame for the bed and gun barrel. Here is hoping some one out there might have some plans! Regards.

Hi, thanks Charlie C for the info. Yes the French mag #95 has a short article. I have about 20 photos and you tube clips. The most useful was a recent article in Voie Etroite a french railway mag. THe article by an interested French general Guy Francois had a whole set of photos I had never seen and are nowhere on the web. I suspect he got them from the French Army archive in Chatellerault or Vincennes. The former has a huge collection of drawings of material for the Pechot system a small sample of which were used in my wife's recent book. Where is the Gallicia Archive you refer to? Regards.
