Aussie Carriers
 

There are more than 200 Carriers in Australia if you count the wrecks!

I have a carrier database of Australian carriers which I will update accordingly.

Then, of course there was the Year of the Carrier where 21 Carriers were fielded at Corowa, of which 17 travelled the 3.2 Km distance to establish a Guinness World Record.
There were also the remains of two British carriers on a trailer.

How many carriers are there?
 

Just off the top of my head, I know of at least 24 T-16s here in the USA alone. I will soon be acquiring 3 more myself. I heard that Southeastern equipment brought in about 120 of them in thelate 60s or early 70s. Many were scrapped about 10 years ago.
Rod Shaver

ok so
4 canadian carriers
4 t-16s
2 brit
and
21 aussie carriers

sorry thats 6 T-16 if you count the one in gatesvill tx.
thanks rod
i will be sending you the 200 soon.:drunk:

Aussie ones
 

Far more than 21 - that's just the number that attended the Corowa event. There would have to be over 70 runners.

KEITH, IM JUST TRYING TO GET A BALL PARK ESTIMENT, I HOPE THERE ARE MORE THAN 21 :D

SO LETS KEEP COUNTING
:cheers:

More than you know...
 

Last I heard, more than 171 DOCUMENTED carriers in Aussieland. many dozens in the UK and Europe in addition, never mind North America. Nigel can tell us more.

GREAT LETS KEEP COUNTING
AND I HAVE A REGISTER AT MY WEB SITE IF ANYONG WANTS TO ADD THERE INFO

There is probably something like 40-50 still in NZ, with around 15-20 running.

John Belfield of Melbourne has quite a number of wrecks in his restoration yard, but not as many as he used to::D

.........topped of by a Lloyd, several Austin K5 trucks and a Fordson WOT6 :p

What a sad sight:( taken in Germany in the Fifties, there are some other similar shots of this pile around.

SWCA
 

Dave,
What a great Idea! We'll have monthly meetings at my place, and we wll have at least 3 people show up!!! Do you think we could beat the Corrowa record of 17 carriers here in the US if we organized a rally?
Somethin to think about Rod

how about we meet in the middle, say el paso? the media would think we were the reinforcements for the minuet men :)

dave

How many carriers?
 

Dave,
The minutemen were here in Az. not in Texas! Have you ever been to El Paso? It is much nicer here in Phx. Well, I'm off to Aberdeen, so I will talk to you in a few weeks.
Rod

thanks rod, yes i took AIT and basic training at FT Bliss (YUCK)!!!
so i know all about that place.

the AZ part of the minuet men is over, but they are going to have another part soon. it will have sevral sections from CA, NM, AZ and TX watched this time. but that means i would have to repaint my carrier to 8th army standards.

have a great time at aberdeen!!!

Minuet men?
 

Hey Dave, I guess the Minuet men choreograph the Minute men! LOL! I think you got too much sun in Bellmead!

hey that was $#@$ HOT!!!
i burned my hands getting into the carrier, thenwe had to sit there for 45 min for the other stuff to happen. its funny how the germans all died in the shade in 3 big piles.

:D

its nice to see that the 88 thought i was enugh of a threat to fire a round at me. im just glad i have that new artillery proof late war armor.
