When digging for something completely different I cam across the following photos. Well known vehicles but I think slightly different photos. If you have seen these before apologies.

I have seen them before, but I believe these copies are higher quality than the ones I saw. Much more detail I think.

Good find! Thanks for posting them!

I do not know, there was this image or not? What it at it ahead for "horns"?

Hello Vad


 The horns as you call them were an experimental flamethrower device.

I think that Vad may be talking about the extended points either side of the tracks at the end of the horns of the steam tank - these I understand were for dislodging mud from the tracks (you can just see a thin bar or thick wire joining them).

Vad & Centurion

Ignore my comet, I really don’t no what I was thinking. Of course Centurion is correct.

All the Best

I've read, that Steam tank could have been used like a battering ram.. is that possible? If so.. could this think be useful as a baterring ram?
(sorry about my English.. those tenses make me problems)
