Cab 13 First Aid Kit
 
Hello all,

I have recently purchased a set of first aid kit “hooks” to go in my Cab 13.

Can anyone kindly tell me where the 2 x hooks should be located ? Do they go along the back wall next to the curtain bag hooks perhaps ?

And was the first aid kit a canvas bag or a metal box ? I have no idea.

Any advise will be much appreciated.

Kind regards

Mark

These pictures are not mine; I saved them off MLU, but can't find the original posts now.....so if anyone recognises them as theirs, apologies for not providing credit!

I'm 95% certain that factory-wise the 13 cab used the exact same setup as this, but maybe others can confirm?

Hi Owen,

Brilliant....That’s really helpful .... thank you for posting the photos ! I have never seen a small first aid kit with hooks like that ... I now know what to l👀k for and where to place the hooks ..... mind you ...my side curtain bag takes up a lot of rear cab wall so I will probably ‘off set’ the hooks to one side ......

Thanks very much ... :thup2:

Kind regards

Mark

The Stevens tins turn up occasionally, sometimes even with the contents but the canvas pouch is a hard one to find. Somebody should make a small batch of new made ones I think. I have a pattern drawn up somewhere but I ain't no seamstress.

There was one listed on Ebay UK a year ago (empty tin, but with the pouch), strangely listed as WW1 first aid kit.....others were willing to pay a LOT more than I was though. :giveup

With a pattern, maybe one of the military canvas vendors might consider making a limited run.....if there was enough interest?
