SA Railways LP 2A Carrier 2515 Recovered

[Ian Patrick]

Some photos of South Australian Railways LP 2A Carrier 2515 hull recovered recently. The hull is in good condition with only the one part of the side armour cut out. It had been stripped of most parts however the data plate was still attached indicating a 1942 build date.

Of interest on this carrier is the all-steel track supporting idler which doesn't seem to be commonplace.

We are in the process of acquiring the missing parts to restore it from other carrier remains we have come across which I'll post details of later.
