Something a little different.  Not sure if anyone else here got their hands on one of these.

The LTR pontoon bridge is not, as far as I'm aware, a Bailey Bridge derivative, but a post-war development in its own right.

Point taken.  I went by the Ugli boat website which refers to these half-ponton bridge boats a s Bailey Boats but there may be some poetic licence being applied and happy to be schooled in this regard :) I've adjusted the title accordingly.
