Thanks!

That's a (relatively) rare T-34-85 variant, being from factory 174. They were one of the smaller T-34 makers.

Danny, is there a list of factories and the differences in each one's T-34s?

From what I can make out on the placard this is a Korean war tank captured from the Chinese.

The problem with so many museum T-34s is that they don't list the post war add ons so you can't really use them as a reference.

Pat the placard says they believe which indicates to me no one can remember where it came from. I will make a point of going through the walkarounds and typing up the available information from the placards as a part of the features. Only 120 and counting I must be mad.

Hey, Darren, thanks for all that you're doing on this. In case no one has said "thanks."
