Hi Alex,
The Cromwell (actually a Charioteer converted back) has only recently moved to Belgium from England, a friend of mine transported it over. Good to see it running on the road. Thanks for the photos.

Hi Richard,

Aha, I already wondered where the Cromwell came from. It doesn't happen to be one of the Band of Brothers movie stars?
Indeed, it was good to see it run last sunday, although I have to admit they did have some mechanical problems later on. A Leopard ARV helped it the last mile, so I hope they didn't break anything during the run through Bastogne.

Alex

Alex,

I have a suspicion it may have been in BoB. It was actually parked outside my workshop a few weeks ago on the transporter, so had a chance to look at it, noting it was an ex-Finland Charioteer from a number plate on the hull.
