These tracks are the home of the longest train in the world,the iron ore train between Sischen and Saldanha averaging a length of 4km but according to the Guinness Book of Records can reach 7.5 km long.This is a crossing over the Berg River near Velddrif.
I was near the start finish line, and the fire was right before turn 3...using 300 mm and a crop you can see a bit of what was going on. I took 35 photos...just picked a couple.
Seen at the Liberty Aviation Museum in Port Clinton, Ohio. From the Museum’s description:
“The M3 half-track is an armored personnel carrier that was used extensively by the U.S. Army and its Allies during WW2 … This particular M3 was produced by the White Motor Company of Cleveland, Ohio.
After the War many M3’s continued to see active service with numerous Armed Forces all over the World with some still in use to this day. This particular half-track was operated by the Israeli Defense Force and modified with the addition of a 30 caliber machine gun installed in place of the passenger front window. This M3 saw extensive service with the IDF and was actively involved in numerous combat engagements. It was sold surplus to the current owner who restored it to its original WWII U.S. Army configuration while retaining the IDF installed 30 cal machine gun passenger window mount …
Crew: 1 driver and 12 passengers …
The front roller is designed to keep the vehicle from getting stuck in a ditch or gully or debris by keeping the front end from getting buried. The armor thickness varies from 6-12 mm to protect the crew from small arms fire and shrapnel.
