Hi Larry/James,
You hit the nail on the head, Larry ... although the short term goal was to have
this ready for the trainshow, I did select it specifically on the basis of
continuing work on it later. I intend to build two or three more cars for it,
including a K5 Leopold Railway gun, an ammo car, and maybe a troop carrier. Eric
Kingsley was kind enough to point out a great railway gun website at
http://www.railwaygun.co.uk/ . Eric Brok has a version of the K5 on his website,
too - in any case, it will indeed be making a showing in a Brikwars game sometime
this spring.
By the way, thanks for the information, James. I was able to collect a number of
photos online, but most of the text details were in German.
