Some more links to pictures in the Amsterdam image bank, some of rare & unusual and some not, some can be downloaded and some not:
Hanno, wouldn't the "online archives" be a better place for the links of "normal" vehicles?

I have some more rarities that I hope to add this week.

Any ideas as to what that vehicle might be?
David,

Attached is a close-up of the halftrack. No idea if it has any special role or if it's just a matter of creating more living space.

Am I right? What else could they be?
Darrell....I think you are right, those do look like the 12ft Assault Bridges. I seem to remember there is an IWM picture of a Staghound with those bridges passing a left behind early King Tiger in the Falaise gap.
