Default Re: Pix - Tiger I at Vimoutiers.

I always thaught it was interesting that the insides of the track are more worn than the outsides (look at the cleats on the track face). I guess when they went from rubber rimmed wheels to steel ones the weight distrabution changed a bit. Seeing as the track wear is unequal im going to make a guess that it is not just postwar disintegration.

That is my guess too, the huge weight added to time will claim their toll. One day this Tiger will have to be stored inside because humidity and vandalism are other enemies.
