Preserved Tanks

About PreservedTanks.com

PreservedTanks.com has been created by Trevor Larkum of Armour Archive to provide information on preserved tanks around the world. It is being built initially using the content from existing Armour Archive publications, including Preserved German Tanks 1: A7V to Panzer IV, Preserved German Tanks 2: Panzer V Panther to Leopard 2, Preserved Tanks in France, Preserved Tanks in Russia, and so on (these publications are available as paperback books from Armour Archive).

The first books to be put online were Preserved German Tanks Volumes 1 and 2 (see the links at the top). So far the first chapter of Preserved Tanks in Russia, covering Kubinka Tank Museum, is also online whilst the first chapter of Preserved Tanks in France, covering Normandy, is in the process of being added.

The site went online publicly, in beta form, on Sunday 8th June 2008.

Preserved Tanks in USA - New York State & Canada

Having had little luck getting to tanks in NYC, I did manage to get to one in New York state, at Rochester last Wednesday. This is a T-72 at a naval and marine corps center visited by taxi:

I have since arrived in Canada and things have got better. Friday night (22nd) I hired a car and headed out into Toronto. While competing against failing light, I managed to visit two Shermans at the George Taylor Denison Armoury:
Sherman 1, Denison

and then another in York Cemetery:
