Default Thank for your help.

Thank you Noel for your help. This is becoming a right pain . So what did it look like. It such an important part of history. Yet it a vehicle no one knows how it looked like.

Looks like it would work by having the first run of it falling down in front of the tank when the explosive bolt ( s ) are fired, then it gets jammed between the tracks and the ground and the forward movement of the tank would pull the rest of it off the rack. It looks to be much wider than the Bobbin device, so it would spread the load more in soft ground .Maybe in D-Day books there must be a good photo
