Trying to ID BEF vehicles
 

These vehicles were pictured at Tournai on May 10th 1940. I'm trying to identify the type of these vehicles and the unit. Code seems to be 245?

Perhaps one of you can help. Many thanks in advance.

Many thanks Les! :thup2:

Anybody an idea about the unit?

Peter

Here is another one in Brussels. Is this an Ausin?

Many thanks

It's certainly civilian impressed. 'HPD' is a Surrey series issued November 1938 - January 1939.

I can't see a white bar above the '25' which would denote Corps troops so it may well be with a Divisional Petrol Coy. RASC. If there's a white triangle on the wing then it's 1st Infantry Divison.

Hi Peter

This one is a Bedford WTH, they were built with a flat radiator and in 1938 recieved a face lift with this more attractive round nose and i think were re named model WTL most certainly a impressed vehicle

Hi Rich,

yes there is a withe triangle on the wing. I was not aware BEF used impressed vehicles.

Thanks for the info.
