Mentioned as a 1941 Captured Soviet towed rolling gasoline container.
Any known designation or capacity?

(even mentioned at the photo caption as a mine roller - seems more towed than pushed design )
Captured at Lemetti area during Winter War.

Without your help I hardly could know about what it was. I just walked through the woods taking photos of any traces of human activity of the past. If the container survives till the snow go away then I'll look for any readable data on it.
