1903 NER autocar. The first use of an internal combustion engine to power a rail vehicle (originally petrol electric, now diesel). Marvelous.

First gangway now in place on 189 since around 1927 when it was withdrawn from service. Some adjusting and final fixing to do. On the interior work progressing well and is now starting to look really special. The blind covers have had gold leaf applied and now refitted.
