Default An Indian (?) bodied CMP pulling a roller

Hello,

The following photo from the IWM collection shows a very small CMP truck (15 cwt?) with an unusual wooden body, which looks like it could be another and Indian pattern one pulling a large roller on airfield construction.

Regards

Nick Balmer
