Photograph showing British BL 18 inch Howitzer Mk I mounted on railway carriage Boche Buster (which originally carried a 14 inch gun in WWI). Seen outside Bourne Park Tunnel, at Bishopsbourne in Kent, near the English South coast. The gun was used to cover possible invasion routes on the Kent coast. It had a relatively short range and could not fire across the channel.
