jcb ◊ 2015-05-01 14:47	mmm I thought they were all the same , so lets pick left foreground one .
Sunbar ◊ 2015-05-01 16:39	I think the headlight positions are lower and wider spaced on the rear vehicles compared with the one in the front foreground (and possibly different radiator shape). All guesswork by me, as I cannot see any real detail - unless fleet details are possible? -- Last edit: 2015-05-01 16:54:17
