3 maja 1987 - Crawley, West Sussex, UK. Something a little different and uniquely British. The Tilling-Stevens Petrol-Electric bus was designed to be easily driven by tram drivers (no gear lever). A petrol engine runs at a constant speed and drives an electric generator, which in turn powers an electric motor to turn the wheels. To increase speed, the driver moves control levers just like a tramcar. This rare survivor was found in a field and completely rebuilt from a heap of junk by a friend of mine. It originally ran for the North Western Road Car Company and now lives in a Manchester museum.
