Mark Ellis Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Don't suppose anyone's got a photo of an MK or MJ with a snow plough fitted, or even an RL / TM with one come to that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Johns Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) Run a google search online, ..."Bedford snow plough truck".. brings up some photos of MK's & RL' snow ploughs and a pic of the snowplough mounting frame on an MK Edited December 16, 2022 by Nick Johns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of UK council M type lorries, but not a single Green one in Germany with military kit on the front of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillS Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 The second edition of Terry Gander's Encyclopaedia of the Modern British Army includes this photograph of a winterised MK in Norway fitted with a snow plough: I've always fancied making a model of it.

REME 245 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 From memory a similar set up to the Mk above. The chassis of the one I worked on was very corroded as they also used it for gritting and had not cleaned it after use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
