Cool

In Armin D. Lehmann´s book "In Hitler´s bunker" it is mentioned that between 17th and 21st April 1945 the Russians had captured German railway guns and turned them on Berlin. He says that these "mammoth beasts weighed 145 tonnes and could fire half-tonne shells that were as devastating over a range of 50 kilometers as a bomb."

Anyone know more of this?
