Does anybody know which railway car the E-100 was transported on? My dad just bought me the Maus and the only am part for it is the barrel. So, I decide to build one on the appropriate car, hidden in a cave. That brings up the question of who makes one?

AFAIK, a special 14-axle railroad transport car (Verladewagon) was produced by Graz-Simmering-Pauker Works to transport the 188 ton Maus tank. :
Maybe there was something similar for the E-100 (but I don't think so...) ?
Here's a E-100 hull on a Culemeyer 80 ton trailer :

Thanks Frenchy. Anyone have some line drawings?
