Re: Luftwaffe trains????

Speaking generally, flak guns were mounted on trains to protect them from aerial attack. Radar was also mounted on flat cars. One flak gun enclosure type was a concrete cylinder with a door on the side. The flak gun was mounted on a wooden platform. Ammunition was stowed in the space under the platform.
