The Australian 1/2 Ton Workshop Platform Trailer 

The 1/2 Ton Workshop trailer is often mis identified as the No.5 Workshop Trailer. The Workshop trailer does utilise the No.5 Trailer chassis, however the platform that sits upon it is the same one that was developed by the Army Design Establishment for use on the workshop variant of the 3/4 ton Land Rover.

To see some Trailer, Platform ½ ton "Workshop" archive photos from when they were new, head to the ADE PR Photos page

The Census Codes for the workshop trailer variants can be found on the Census Codes page, however these variants were all modified from the basic Census 6015E, Trailer, 1/2 Ton, Platform, Machinery and most are Census 6017 with varying suffix letters. Further information about these is listed below.
