Text in original Preserved Tanks In Britain publication:

Very few M40s were supplied to British forces. This one was presented, on loan, by the Royal Artillery Institution to the IWM in 1966. It was transferred to the London IWM from the Royal Artillery Junior Leader Regiment, Gamecock Barracks, at Bramcott in Warwickshire. It was moved to Duxford in 1985. It is in running order.
