Fort Lee
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Afternoon,

Yes!

Railroad Ave:
Everything you have on Railroad Ave is there.

Regarding the "Stored Elsewhere?"

These are with the others on Railroad:
M3A1 Lee "Lu Lu Belle"
M113 "Iron Butterfly II"
T70 "Fearless Felix"
Type 97 Chi Ha
T114

Not-Located at all (I will ask around):
Semovente da 90/53

Others that are on Railroad that you didn't ask about:
M3 Stuart "Sad Sack"
M5 "JEB"
T26 SN18? Painted "25-18" on the hull
M48A2C Patton SN518 "Bamboo Viper"
XM104? Under tarps
M551 has that brown gloss paint can't find any numbers on it.
M578 BMY820?
?M2 Combat Car??? You'll have to look at the pictures...I'm guessing (and that has never been a strength identified with Captains!) but the only numbers I saw where SYM C64944 with "SOFT STEEL" stamped in below and the number C64946.
Mk VIB Light Tank...looks newly painted, tightly tarped though another guess though

Let me know if that helps, I put most of the pictures up too...I can always go back if you need clarification on some point.

Quentin, Many, many thanks for the info! The "T26E1" is actually a T25E1 - they mislabeled it unfortunately... The M551 is the XM551 (SN 4). The M2 Combat Car is the M2A2E3 (SN 248). The M578 is a head-scratcher actually. Wasnt aware of one with the Ordnance Museum. Neil

I remember Ed telling me about some of the artifacts 'behind the fence' I know the M51 heavy recovery vehicle was one of them and I think teh M578 was also one of them _________________ Bob Smart ([email protected])
