Marmon Herrington Carrier conversion
Well its pouring rain here what better day to spend on M L U ?
here are a few pics of a carrier I bought some time ago up in the
mountains the owners had used the running gear from a Marmon
Herrington two man tank to enable the carrier to slew around in
a mountain saw mill, as we know this can not be done in a carrier
in a job that they intended to do,I hope that you enjoy them,its a
little bit of history I guess, but one hell of a shame they had to bugger
up a rare little tank to do this,I must go back and check if any of the
tank remains, they did take the parts off off a tank and did not buy
them as surplus . the son of the man and his uncle who took the parts
off the tank told me the story,he is away in Russia at this time but I
intend to follow it up, anyway enjoy the pics, Regards Ron
