Joris Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Last week I was in the Wings of Liberation Museum in Best, Netherlands and they had a huge trailer outside and I was wondering what monster WWII truck could tow such a trailer and what was it used for?

Rlangham Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 My bets on the Diamond T, as for what it was used for, beats me, the shape is a bit unusual to carry vehicles on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcspool Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 what monster WWII truck could tow such a trailer and what was it used for? I don't think this is a WW2 trailer. I'll see if I can dig up any info. Hanno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front bogie is removeable and swan neck folds down flat to form a ramp for loading tanks, etc. Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick garner Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Hi all, A Pacific M26 Dragon Wagon perhaps? I know they used the unarmoured version well into the fifties. Cheers, Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick, The Dragon Wagon trailer loaded over the rear. On looking more closely, it would appear a short bed for a tank to be carried, it may be for engineers plant, like excavators, etc., obviously for something really heavy.
