Wurger is correct, those are what I was referencing. I often wondered how the rail car mounted weapons (or the cars themselves) where stabilized. Firing a heavy cannon like that would cause quite a bit of motion to the car. Those 4 legs seem to be retractable and would stabilize the rail car when firing. Along with the retractable side platforms it is a very neat design from what I can see.

Belfast Telegraph Spitfire fund
Belfast Telegraph's Spitfire fund raised an impressive £88,633 16s 5d - the equivalent of about £2.9m in today's money - as part of a UK-wide fund-raising effort in 1940.
It was enough to buy 17 Spitfires used by the RAF during WWII.

HMS Kempenfelt C-class destroyer transferred to the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) in 1939 and renamed HMCS Assiniboine. During World War II, she served as a convoy escort in the battle of the Atlantic, sinking one German submarine by ramming, on anti-submarine patrols during the invasion of Normandy, and was employed as a troop transport after VE Day for returning Canadian servicemen, before being decommissioned in mid-1945.
