As others have posted the 5 Ton conversion is common. This filter is from an M52A2. I copied the installation from an M35A2 that was modified at the Tooele Army Depot. with an LDS engine.
TANKS on TRAINS - The Military & The Railroad - YouTube At 3:53 there is an M54/M52 5 Ton truck with railroad wheels instead of tires operating as a locomotive. I understand there are some of these converted trucks in South Korea.
Military Trains - "Loaded for War" - 1940's - American Railroads in WW2 - YouTube I stumbled across this Black & White footage of railroads operating during WW2.
I entered my M35A2 and M38A1 Jeep dozens of times and finally won twice with the truck and once with the Jeep. People like to see lots of good pictures and the stories to go with them. [thumbzup]
