Well, Lynn, you've got me stumped. I was under the impression that the early english carriers had 2 1/2in wide wheels and 8 1/2 or 9in wide track links, whereas the Light Tanks and the Aussie carriers had 3in wide wheels and 9 1/2in wide track links. The Aussie carriers specifically had different track from the British carriers, the track being the same as that in use on the Vickers Light Tanks. You probably have the heavy metal to back up your argument, but are you saying the only difference is the width of the wheel and the track is 9 1/2in wide in both cases?
