Tracked Land Rover – 1962/63

Conditions on the moor could be bad.  Geoffrey recalled one Friday afternoon when their truck ran off the PSP (perforated steel plate road) into a bog.  Another vehicle was sent to take the men.  The RL three ton Bedford disappeared into the bog over the weekend. Constant bogs required desperate measures, this Land Rover was fitted with tracks.
