Totally off topic, but I thought you Hollanders might enjoy this pic I clipped off of one of the sites I mentioned. Sorry for the double post, the pic didn't attach the first time.

Working class Ford CMP, removing the railway sleepers of the so-called "Blauwe Tram" at Voorburg, Holland.

Hendrik,

That's great to hear! Will you and Martijn be working on the modifications as outlined at Apeldoorn?

Regards,
Hanno

PS: moved you posting from 'Did Canadian army in ETO use 4x2 CMPs?' to this thread

Hi Hanno, we don't know yet, the engine looks better then expected, so perhaps we will keep it original.

Default Dutch CMPs in the 1980s

Marcel Both sent me some pictures of Dutch CMPs taken back in the 1980s.

Some of them are still out there, others seem to have disappeared from the radar.

  • C15A Water tank. Where is it now?

  • F15A. Where is it now?

  • C15A (fitted with crane in civy life) towing a British 1-ton trailer. Ex-Dirk Leegwater, ex-Hans van Ravenswaai - where is it now?
