Years ago I stumbled across the DND disposal files for these. As tractors were a scarce commodity during the war yet industry was gearing up to dfeed the war machine, it was decided that these 6-ton tanks could be sold to 'approved' buyers. Some of these buyers included the Sorel shipyard and other industries, including logging and forestry.
The files included coies of the sales records which showed many of these companies, unfortunately I did not take note of the file reference and have not stumbled across it since the original find (damn!)
