    No. They have a few German pieces of armour, with spare engines I
    understand, but nothing that has moved in a long time. Bear in mind, with
    the fall of the Iron Curtain, a lot of old armour that was left in fields,
    rivers and lakes is now being recovered, as with old aircraft that were
    ditched.

    The 88 is in Vimy House (about two miles from here), though they are
    crying for volunteers to help restore a lot of their holdings. I don't
    know if the 88 is under restoration.
