The Type 90 240 mm railway gun (九〇式二十四糎列車加農 Kyūrei-shiki nijyūyon-miri Resshahō) was a large caliber railroad gun acquired by the Imperial Japanese Army from the French arms manufacturer Schneider in 1930. The Type 90 designation was given to this gun as it was accepted in the year 2590 of the Japanese calendar (1930). It was the only railroad gun in Japanese service.
