Another possibility is that the single Semovente 90/53 was the older prototype with new armored hood applied and assigned to 26th Panzer, but again, I have no evidence to back this up.
Sadly, I haven't been able to find the statements about the bombing and the stranded Semoventi 90/53 at rome's RR junction. It was most likely deleted along with the photo.
The picture of the Semovente abandoned on the side of the road between Anzio and Rome is all I have recovered.
I stopped...
Here's the picture.
Found abandoned on the side of the road between Anzio and Rome.
Photo was unpublished and posted by Vollketten on the WOT forums.
Perhaps you can pm him on the Landships 2 forum for the info about the bombing and Semovente m41m trapped on flatbeds.
I hope this helps.

From memory, it was the Rail junction in Rome but I could be incorrect about the location.
A lot has been deleted from that thread over the years , even finding the one between Alban hills and Rome is proving difficult. Hopefully the picture still exists in the old Comando Supremo forum.

There is a photo of the Semovente 90/53 abandoned on the road between Anzio and Rome in the old comando supremo forum. It should be in a thread titled "help ID decal" or something like that.
I signed in to wot forums and searched but sadly can't find the archive page.
It may have been deleted...
To the best of my knowledge it's like this:
30 X total
24 x Sent to Sicily ( by the end of campaign all 24 remained in Sicily).
6 left in Italy and allied bombing leaves them stranded on rail cars till end of war
Info gap
At least one manages to show up in 26th panzer and is seen abandoned...
The semoventi trapped on railcars is from an archive scan from Vollketten on the WOT forums. There's many archive scan pages and not sure which one. The page # might be listed in the old article in the armor section of this forum.
-An allied bombing of railway left 6 Semovente stranded on the railway cars till end of war.
-The 1x Semovente 90/53 abandoned on the Road between Anzio and Rome during allied drive from Anzio was the last one I could find. Just prior to this the 26th was deployed around the Alban hills and...
No, it wouldn't fit into World of Tanks very well anymore. I haven't played in years but last I heard they trimmed away a lot of the underbrush necessary for tank destroyers of that type to hide in. Players dislike getting hit by vehicles they can't see.
Plus, that game has moved on to more...
I spotted the Semovente 90/53 M41
In a strategy game called "Advanced Military Command" for the Sega Genesis
(1991). It was english translated at a later date.
It's a down load available on my abandon ware:

Landscaping at 1mph?
I wonder about the vehicles top speed?
If it's not too dangerous for wear and tear,
I think they should test top speed on pavement at least once and make video.
...or maybe that is the top speed.
I wanted to make a quick correction to an earlier post.
The 65t ton Ansaldo was originally the French Char C So the French definitely had some influence. At this stage IIRC Ansaldo helped the Russians with the engine ( electro magnetic?) then worked with them on the T39 like projects.
This info...
I remember the old CS forum had the Grey Green website linked. I'll try to find that link later.
