A walking tour of the private museum which rebuilds old tanks, often to running condition: YouTube link Hundreds of exhibits including a Goliath demolition tank, a Jagd Panther, a Panther, a Tiger I, three Panzer IVs, a rare Stug IV and the Australian-modified M113 support vehicle which has a Saracen armoured car turret on top. This last was used during the Vietnam War. The Tiger has spare bits of a broken Tiger behind so that visitors can get a sense of how thick the armour really was. Barry |

An outstanding museum which is also the venue for regular miniatures gaming evenings, contact them for dates and details if in the vicinity. It's a superb location. |

Loved the tour. But this is two Wednesdays in a row with nothing on their Grant and Stug restoration projects. I wonder what's up? |

@robert p: Christmas is coming – perhaps they are gearing up for the season? Barry |

On my bucket list to visit this place. I stopped watching the youtube because I realised it was epic from it and I want to see it for real. |

@MILSPEX78: I know what you mean. I stopped watching 'pron' films (wink) for the same reason! :) :) :) |
