Kangaroo's on the move

Here are 3 pictures found from my Grandfathers collection. They are part of a group from the end of the war. I only wish they were a little clearer. This was probably a sad day as the 1CACR's Roo's were rolled away.

Hi Jason,
Great photos, looks like Diamond Ts towing them?
Well done thank you for the posting,
Ron,

Yes, it sure does, judging from the subtle wheel cut-outs on the ballast body.
The trailers look like 40 ton 24 wheeled "Dyson/Cranes" MK2 trailers!

Thanks Jason! Have you got any idea of the location?

Alex, The Netherlands

Yes, Enschede I believe.

I just received the negatives of these pictures which show a slightly wider view. I will try to post clearer pictures.
