- Here we see the 1931 built Sentinel Steam Driven vehicle that was converted to a Bus to give trips around Whitby in North Yorkshire during the Summer months. This privately owned 30 seater 11 ton beast has tremendous acceleration as cab be seen as it climbs from the Harbour to the Higher Town. Roadside and on-board footage is seen. Driven by Vernon, commentary by Viv and fired by Vern Jnr...what a team!
It's wonderful that you've seen her many times....it's a wonderful machine, lovingly cared for by her owners.....Bob
They are very rare and a real treat for all the family to enjoy.....The owners deserve all the success they get...they work hard enough for it....Bob
What a treat Bob! The bus is immaculate and in great condition, a real tribute to the folks who have restored and maintained it. Thanks for sharing this piece of history! I have a friend who now lives in Cheshire but who was born and brought up in Whitby whom I'm sure will love this one!
A trip down memory lane watching this I love how you got the fire shooting up at the front!
This is just amazing, never seen, Bob! Thank you for sharing! :)
