Ontario armour

[Tboss]

Another question Gord.
The English service personnel were zooming around Imperialist Russia in various armoured units, especially before Trotsky and Lenin consolidated military control. Now, it was suggested to me that there is no reason to assume that only Rolls Royce chassis cars were shipped there, exclusively. If our local boy was shipping large street railway units around North America, he was as able to ship smaller dimensional packages, i.e. armoured vehicles to England or elsewhere. Would Churchill and other top brass in England receive data about the military activities of their Toronto units in Stanley Barracks? Why invest money for a few prototypes to entertain the local yokels at Stranley Barracks and the lady visitors to the CNE? What cash would the local boys have to spend? It seems as likely to me that an impetus for creating an assembly line for armoured vehicles would be financial. Whack out prototype versions that are poked at by the locals at Stanley Barracks, while sending samples to Churchill in England or the Czar for some quick cash. Was not Churchill a conceptual mover of armour? Was not the Czar desperate for armoured vehicles? Production capacity here in Toronto, demand over there. Gosh Gord, sounds like something clase to NAFTA. Any comments that relate to documentation of the above???
Appreciate your thoughts!!
