Default 12-inch Rail-Mounted Howitzers

A cousin of mine in England just sent me a copy of a book entitled 'The LMS at War" as there is a picture of my uncle in it in the L.M.S. canteen at Willesden Junction.

Apparently, the London Midlands and Scottish Railway had a very large Shops facility in Derby and it was involved in quite a diversified bit of wartime production. One of the items they built was the above titled gun and the picture shows a number of them ready for delivery.

I am curious now as to who used this equipment and where. Be interesting to know if any survived as well.
