Gentlemen ..Just joined the HMVF and this is my first post ..
I grew up in yorkshire and as a child was taken to Thorpe arch where I played on the M10 , Windsor Carrier and Pirate ship ..Must admit the M10 was my favourite and in defence of the playground many a passing Car was destroyed ...(At least in my mind .)
You use to be able to climb in the Tank but eventually it was all sealed up to prevent access and just became a climbing frame .
The vehicle was one of a few which sparked a passion for tanks and military vehicles .
As an adult I returned tp Thorpe Arch with my Children and Whilst the pirate ship remained the Tanks had disappeared and enquiries shed little light on their location. I joined the Yorkshire MVT when I acquired my first vehicle and hoped a member would know the location or story So was amazed when the fist post I read today had a full story with Pictures ..
Must admit the restoration looks great and I hope to see the M10 running ..when and where is it on show ?
