A detail from the pic I posted in the "Aust tanks 1937" thread, the track on the Puckapunyal Vickers, DD^276, has Aust "lead plug" track links. Might this have been an Aust Army change for compatibility with LP carriers, or has it been done during the (Aust Army) Museum restoration using what was available?
