I think there is a similar one out in Kelowna, BC on the Armoury grounds.

I have one on stands outside the shop at work waiting for the wheels to be re-done. They are expected to be about $1500 or so each......a little more complicated than a normal wheel.

The war museum used to claim (decades ago, not sure if they still say it) that the split barrel was the result of a freak hit by an enemy shell that entered the barrel before exploding. Your choice whether you go for myth or truth
