Lang,

I think this photo has been discussed before, seem to think it is a Leyland Retriever (there were other makes, Guy, Albion, Karrier, Crossley, AEC in this standard 6x4 3ton class) with a Breakdown Gantry body. It is winching what I am sure is an American made asphalt laying machine for airfield runways. It would appear the dozer is on a trailer and they are endeavoring to load this machine behind it.
