here is something for the panther owner's to think of

Looks like one of the initial run of all steel wheeled Panthers in late summer '44, early G model. Some also fought around Aachen. Original plans were to go to all steel wheels, but the advent of the Panther 2 project, which would have shared supposedly KT steel wheels put paid to that idea. It is fairly common to see Panthers with a steel wheel on the final station R&L towards the end, and rarely but not unknown to see them at other stations, sometimes not symetrical R&L. Also not unknown to see T34's with the odd Panther early or mid wheel on them.
Oh yeah, like the mention of the "ice cleats" in the official blurb.
