Did some reading in my trusty set of Wheels & Tracks magazines, which is where I found the answer:

X2 stands for export to United Kingdom.

Would this tie in with manufacture of the Gun Laying radar, Mark IIIC? Where these manufactured specifically under British or under Canadian contract?

And if this C60L was indeed part of a Gun Laying Radar convoy, how would it have ended up in Norway? Were they supplied with the radar sets or was the truck issued as a generic GS version?

Loads of questions still to be answered....
