Brian,

Thanks for the heads up! At least we can record remains of another Ram. Last entry at www.ramtank.ca for serial number CT159625 is in June 1943, "retained in Canada for training purposes". Who can read the DND number? 56-569?

Regards,
Hanno

Clive,

Here´s another picture of DND number 70-938. You already have a picture of it, listed under CT39929. Still with T&S (Training) Wing, A33, Cdn Armoured Corps, but the WE-210 tracks have been replaced with the later T54E1 track type, so I presume this picture was taken at a later date.

Click on the picture to go to the source, there are some other Ram pictures as well.

HTH,
Hanno
