7 maja 2018 - A unique survivor from the early days of bus transport. As its name suggests, this Tilling-Stevens machine uses a petrol engine to power an electric motor, which in turn drives the road wheels. The driver`s controls are similar to those of a tram and the bus was designed to make it easy for tram drivers to master - they were very popular in the 1920s and 1930s. This bus was rescued from a scrapyard in 1971 and took nearly 30 years to fully restore. In 2014, it was sold at auction for GBP214,000 (yes, well over one quarter of a million Euros!)
