This first picture is of "Jumbo" A casing built to hold the test bombs for transport , it was intended to contain the second test but instead was stood on end directly underneath the first Bomb , Detonated from a hundred foot tall tower Jumbo survived unscathed ! It was later loaded with 8 , 500 pound bombs and blown up so it could be moved !
....This is an actual Bomb casing They never used these in the tests , they called this one "Fatman"
