I'll see what I can do. I don't live close by and usually go there when we have a work day or other special event. I may not get down there until October, so be patient please.

Thank you ever so much, my spidey senses were tingling but could not confirm anything. Any possibility you have colour shots of 210 or better B&W ones.

Again thanks again

I don't have any shots of it when it was painted as 210. I will ask the museum librarian or curator if there are any and try to get copies. No promises, but I'll ask.

That would be grand Garry, when and if you can. Seeing any of these old war wagons restored and better yet running gives me such a charge. Seeing them rusting away somewhere seems like such a waste! Of course in such a forum these feeling would be the Norm.

Re: Growl of the Panther Tank

The 200 number on the turret makes this a 2nd company command tank.
