Default KTR Twente Achterhoek Weekend: Rolling Steel 2016 Berkel Bridge

See https://www.flickr.com/photos/130870...h/29643485732/ for a set of great photos taken at this event.

What was impressive was the boat bridge owned by a collector, which was laid out for the vehicles to cross a small river. Very professional!

There always seems to be a good selection of "special" vehicles at this event....our beloved CMP's and Commonwealth vehicles, but also some of the rarer US vehicles.....Ford GP, GMC AFKWX, Chevrolet M6 etc.

I posted a few short video clips on YouTube in an effort to share some of the fun and thrill I experienced. In the hands of a good driver the Sherman is a fast tank!
