Yes, the Carrier, Tracked, Towing, No.1, was meant for towing the 6-pdr anti-tank gun and carrying its crew. Before the 6-pdr came in use, it was meant for towing the 2-pdr gun. It was also used to tow the 4.2-inch mortar in a 10-cwt trailer. The Canadian Army used it in that role in Italy.
Who can tell use more about the census number T 256742?

P.S.: see my
G503 album some pictures of a 10-cwt Mortar Trailer I took at Beltring this year.
