'''Kereta artileri agung''', juga dikenal sebagai '''Ekspedisi Knox''', adalah sebuah ekspedisi yang dipimpin Kolonel [[Pasukan Kontinental]] [[Henry Knox]] untuk mengangkut persenjataan berat yang [[Penaklukan Fort Ticonderoga|dirampas di Fort Ticonderoga]] menuju kamp Kontinental di luar [[Boston, Massachusetts]] selama musim dingin 1775–1776.

Knox berangkat ke Ticonderoga pada November 1775 dan, selama 3 bulan musim dingin, memindahkan 60 ton<ref name="Ware18">[[#Ware|Ware (2000)]], p. 18</ref> meriam dan persenjataan lain dengan perahu, kuda, dan seluncur lembu, serta manusia di sepanjang jalan berkualitas rendah melintasi dua sungai setengah membeku dan hutan serta rawa [[Berkshires]] yang sedikit berpenghuni di daerah Boston.<ref name="Ware19_24">[[#Ware|Ware (2000)]], pp. 19–24</ref><ref name="Brooks38">[[#Brooks|N. Brooks (1900)]], p. 38</ref> Sejarawan Victor Brooks menyebut perjalanan Knox sebagai "salah satu perjalanan logistik paling menakjubkan" sepanjang [[Perang Revolusi Amerika Serikat]].<ref name="VBrooks210">[[#VBrooks|V.
