Bren carrier
Ithink that the carrier you saw in The Bridge Too Far is the one I have. The Vehicles for the film were supplied by Baptys of London. In the early 1980 I bought 19 of their vehicles.The German vehicles I bought were all in the film. If you look near the beginning you will see the Dutch boy riding along the canal bank, he comes accross a German sentry and during this shot you will see a Type 40 Horch, it also appears right at the end coming over the bridge with I think, some prisioners aboard

fantastic !
Shaun is in Suffolk, Kevin is near Lowestoft, Martyn is near Lincoln, Barry near London. All have a number of carriers, then there is Me at Newcastle and Nige up North near Dundee. I am sure there are others but these guys are the ones who have made contact with me. so plenty folks around on our rock to give a hand if its ever needed. martyn is simultaneusly rebuilding two carriers together, both severe basket cases, one has been scratch built from a pile of wheels and track, so plenty of skill about to help especially if you ever have cause to fabricate anything. John if you are on Facebook pm me your email as there are tonnes of pics there of the lads and they're carriers Richie
