Default Carrier ID

Hi David,

From the little info I have on carriers I found the following:-

T2879 and T2932 are from T.3888 by Nuffield Mechanical & Aero and are for
Carrier, MG, No2 Mk I and Bren. A batch of 400

T21548, T21644 and T21649 from Wolseley for Carrier, Universal, Mk I & II. A batch of 1400.

Hope it helps. Any chance of posting the photos?

Cheers
Kevin

Kevin - sorry for your difficulty. I have forwarded you reply to Dan at Smithers BC
They have had troubles with heavy smowfall and some health difficulties so he may be slow in replying. His e-mail
I have unearthed a couple photos I will email you but I'm afraid I can't offer anything better. Regards Grant
