LCC-1 LeTourneau Sno-Train - Logistic Cargo Carrier

LCC-1 LeTourneau Sno-Train

 

LCC: Logistical Cargo Carrier.

 

The LeTourneau LCC-1 Sno-Train was intended for D.E.W. line radar station supply in Northern Yukon and Alaska. In 1955 LeTourneau won the landtrain contract from the US Army Transportation Corps. Prior to its dispatch to the D.E.W. line it was tested first in Michigan, shortly thereafter it completed further testing on the Greenland ice cap.

This would be something to freak out the Anti-ATV crowd on my next outing.
