Another great find by Niels Vegger: https://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/i...ect/1060008447
“II. Large numbers of Fordson fifteen-hundredweight trucks, Morris light utility cars and Canadian military-pattern trailer tractors (sic) are stored alongside a branch of the Great Western Railway at No 55 Vehicle Reserve Depot, Little Stretton, Shropshire.” Screenshots of above footage attached here: IWM A70 20-2_1.jpg IWM A70 20-2_2.jpg IWM A70 20-2_3.jpg

Agree with Hanno, great find
What's interesting is the partial use of camouflage on the locker system, which housed the snail drums and .303 rounds. Question is, what type of camo was this ( bearing in mind this was early 44, could it be foliage ?), and why was this only on the locker system, and not the rest of the CMP. |

This Fordson WOT2H in France seems to be fitted with a converted Polsten gun platform
