Canadian made Sexton
Mario, the Sexton was produced at the Montreal Locomotive works in Canada. I couldn't find much info on the place but I believe I found some pictures from Archives of Canada web site. Maybe you will be able to find more Info than me.

Hi all and thank you very much for all posts, sorry for my late reaction. Now the sexton starts on button, better than my modern car
 . I also attached pictures how it looks today and on one picture wah hit by german STUG III , brownings 0.50 cals are just for show, but i know that italians were using them with 105mm M4 howitzer.The serial number is 1953. Roger, so you know that there is no chance that this sexton was left in Italy by Canadians, so there are just 2 options : 1., it s british 2., or it s one of those who were given away in 1953/1957 or? MrBNaylor, I saw the document : It s excellent, I really love to see everything from WW2-west side, especially when I can see and hear people who fought for our freedom, and as a cherry on cake in Sexton Is it possible to buy it or download in some way? Thank you Last edited by Mario Simeon; 16-07-13 at 09:32.

Hi Mario, sorry for some reason I haven't received any notifications from this thread in the last 3 years and I just get one now. I thought no one had commented on this anymore and I haven't been on here since. Hard to imagine its been so long. Well if you haven't already, please feel free to down load the video, all rights are reserved from Imperial War museum on the ww2 footage so I dont make any money from this. The document that I put together on my grandfather's 23rd Field Regiment S.P. RCA can be shared for educational purpose, no problem at all. Glad you enjoyed it and once again sorry for this huge delay. Looks like you are doing well with your Sexton. I will check out the videos you posted. Hope all is well.

Mario, just watched Tank days and loved it. I've been living some tanks days myself here in Edmonton Alberta with the Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians). My first year at regiment, my job was driving the Leopard 2 which was a great time. Too bad I never received these notifications back then. This show would be an awesome event to see in person if I could manage to get back to Europe. I will check in here a little more often.
