Fahrzeugraritäten Hedi and other Rare and Unusual Vehicles Limited Edition. The main weapon systems of the Imperial German Army in World War One have been covered in past volumes in this series, including panzers, tanks, armoured cars, artillery tractors, antiaircraft gun carriers, trucks, motorcycles, ambulances and specialised vehicles. In some of these books the author wanted to add chapters that expanded the topics discussed, or to cover the story of certain vehicles that extended beyond the end of the Great War. However, this was not possible if the publications were to stay within their economic frame. This book now closes many of these gaps – Each of the following chapters represents the first-ever comprehensive coverage on the topic. The tracked transport vehicle chapter comprehensively covers the Überlandwagen, Dür-Wagen, Orion-Wagen and Lanz Gleiskettenschlepper fully tracked lorries as well as fully tracked and half-tracked trucks. With the ‘Hedi’ anti-riot tank, one follows the A7V panzer’s history into the turbulent post-war Freikorps era, including the first detailed scale drawing. The chapter on Straßenlokomotiven provides extensive coverage of wartime steam-powered road locomotives by Fowler-Magdeburg, Kemna, Lanz, Heuke and others, with these machines used to haul super-heavy siege artillery. It is supplemented with a brief chapter on steam-powered trucks by Badenia and Wolf. Another topic covers the use of cargo trucks for field artillery transport and as self-propelled guns during the war. The chapter on Daimler, Ehrhardt and Benz Schupo-Sonderwagen and the Gepanzerter Kraftwagen finally expands the limited story of German World War One armoured cars into their much more exciting usage with the post-war anti-riot police, and even up into Reichswehr service.
