"There might be some swearing" Don't worry, we couldn't hear it. Christ Almighty, what they must have been like to drive and operate day to day, the noise, heat, vibration and the heavy steering. Fatiguing is not the word. Absolute respect to those men, and to you for keeping this bit of the great industrial heritage of the British nation alive.

OMG! You really had that Sentinel chugging! Scared the bejesus out of me, and I was watching a video! Thought you had the bloke on the bridge! Loved it!

What was you cooking John ☺.
Steering at low speed looks bloody hard work, even though the steering wheel diameter is massive, great job to you both.
Ettingshall was less than two miles from where I grew up.
Thanks for sharing and best regards from the Black Country.

It was a pleasure to meet you yesterday at Tanfield. Bert (small lad with the red jacket) was made up that you showed him inside the cab.
Thanks again.

When the working conditions in Mark Knopfler's "Border Reiver" sound like an improvement, you know you're looking at a hell of a tough way to make a living.

You must be hurtling along at 20-25 miles per hour. What a thrilling ride.

[bcbloc]

I think yall need to balance the tires. :-)

Fantastic, thank you. I'm fascinated with these Sentinels and their incredible multicylinder engines, would you please consider covering this in a future video?

[olhemi]

John, I keep saying you guys drive on the wrong side of the road. :-) Looks like there is a lot to keep track of with that old wagon. Thanks for sharing. Al-USA

Are you sure you don't mean Tanfield Railway to East Tanfield Station?

[MaturePatriot]

Hope there are good cushions on the seats! Hope you are wearing earplugs. Thanks for the run, enjoyed it.

[mechaform]

I think my teeth fell out just watching this run.

[pddpup]

How fast does that thing go? Looks like 40 mph or so

[robertklein]

John, pull the stack off so we can see where your going, it's seems to be running a little lean.

[roberteakins]

I was looking forward to the swearing, couldn't hear a bastarding thing... :)
