MVT Open Weekend is set to
be tons of fun at the Heatons Bridge Inn
THE local Military Vehicle Trust
members (MVT) will be holding another Military Vehicle open weekend at the
Heatons Bridge Inn, Burscough, on 18 April to 19 April 2015. As usual, the
public will be made to feel most welcome, plus there will again be no admission
or other charges involved. The display will see a wide range of military
vehicles on show covering most eras from WW2 onwards. The vehicles which will be
attending range from Landrovers and Jeeps, through 4 ton trucks, armoured
personnel carriers, right up to a Mighty Antar Tank transporter/trailer and
Abbot Self Propelled Gun, if all goes to plan. Plus the group hopes to have back
on show the mighty Howitzer field gun and Foden Gun crew-bus. They have become a
regular part of the display over the last few years. Not only that, but the 25
pounder field gun rig, comprising the Morris Quad tractor unit, which tows an
ammunition limber behind, and the field gun itself behind that! But if you have
a military vehicle of your own, well MVT say that you will be welcome to:-
"bring it and join us over the weekend, even if you are not members."
