Congratulations Shaun to another fantastic mastermodel.

Fascinating that the gun is motorised also. Do you use the pneumatic
pressure as a counterweight for the gun barrel. I wish you could take same
pictures of the interior design.

I have also a few more general building question. When you design a build a
Lego model, do you make some kind of sketches or drawings first?  Do you
make many prototypes before the final construction?  I have myself found it
practical to keep the last prototype as a 'drawing' for the next more
detailed prototype.

cm Rail Gun, a freight car to carry the ammo, and a flatbed car carrying
a Sd.Kfz 250 Halftrack.

The flatbed car is pretty self-explanatory.  It can be found here:
