To clarify my earlier statements...
I have been looking for the correct terms for that long tube that runs through the Limber
and has the Hitch Hooks at either end.
I have narrowed it down to Yoke and Tongue.
I don't think either of these is correct...but the rear Hitch point (behind the Limber) is the Pintle.
I think the Yoke must be the forward Hitch eye and connection to the Horse Hitch?
Anyway, I have been reading a bit more about Limbers and Caissons...
in the Funeral procession I showed, the Caisson is actually the flatbed cart which is carrying the Casket.
This would have originally been the flat Wagon for Ammunition Boxes.
The Limber is the connecting point between the Caisson and the Horse Hitch as I said.
In fact, the Limber is more like a Multi-Hitch or Towing Adapter, for connecting anything to the Hitch Team.
With the addition of a Gun trailer, the Caisson and Limber were obviously combined into one unit.
Ammunition and Field Gun were originally towed separately by different teams.
I apologize if you don't care about these details, but this is what I find interesting about researching for a paper model project.
Learning useless facts that I will never ever use again! lol
