As the CDSW is on this topic .

I recently had this pic emailed to me , a restored CDSW in England . Although fairly rare , a few have survived . The 4 ton power winch meant that a few were used in the logging industry after being sold off . The 6 cyl OH engine would only drag it along at pedestrian pace . This is the breakdown version , the other common type was the LAA bofors tractor .

The pic is courtesy of Richard Notton , MLU's own reporter in the UK . Notice the orange rotating pimple on the CDSW , this is to warn off other motorists . The CDSW's breakneck speed of 10MPH on the M1 motorway would frighten snails and turtles into submission . Its even slower than a CMP . As the New Yorker said "Bud, dats slow ".
