We have the adapters that Richard is talking about in Canadian service. The problem was they were continually going missing. There are very few of the old 2 pin receptacles around any more in service. The exception is the MLVW. When I was still in the service, I permanently installed the two pin adapter into the receptacle of my MLVW and also installed the plastic protective cap. Saved always hunting for the adapter.

As far as I know, everything else is over to the single pin style. However, in my job at the local museum, we are now seeing the generation of single pin vehicles showing up as artifacts, so once again the search continues for the adapters.

Robin: I'll have a look today. I think I know roughly which container the adapter is in. I'll post a photo of it before sending it off and post it in this thread for posterity.
