Attached are some photos of a Trailer used to recover a Tiger using two Diamond T trucks used in tandem to move the beast...They mention the trailer was originally built earlier in the war for an experimental heavy tank.

While we're on the subject of vehicles in tandem, here's an interesting pic I found on the internet showing tandem Faun ZR's used as a locomotive on a rail line. Having the back-to-front arrangement would limit you to the speed of the Faun in reverse, but as a stop gap or as a marshalling yard locomotive, I imagine it would have provided some usefullness. Maybe we should start a new thread: Prime movers in tandem.


CHIMO!
