An acquaintance has a case with No. 6321 (not in Hogg's book), which is 660mm long and mouth dia. 254mm. Can anyone identify it please? Depotman
 
Hello....6321 is the ID# for the case of the 24cm Th Br K (E) i.e 24cm Theodor Bruno railway gun (238x660R x 275rim)
 
Many thanks - my acquaintance will be delighted. Have you any source reference for this info to share with everyone? Ian Hogg's book says that most of the railway Gun cases have no code number. Depotman
 
238x660R  case.jpg238x660R  24cm K(E) Theodor Bruno.jpgNo single source...just accumulated info that's found its way into my data tables.
However, i will search the documents i have and see if i can authenticate that info for you/your friend.
Oh here's a photo of a headstamp with the info.
