1931 Heavy Machinery Regn Sentinel Shrewsbury Traction Waggon Wagon Pendle
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless beauty and power of the Sentinel DG6P Type Wagon, specifically the Pendle Lady (registration number GT 2827, number 8590), as it majestically traverses a rural landscape during the 1960s or 70s. The Sentinel Waggon Works in Shrewsbury built this magnificent piece of machinery in 1931, making it a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the era. The Sentinel DG6P Type Wagon, also known as a steam wagon or steam lorry, was a heavy-duty vehicle designed for agricultural and industrial use. Its robust frame, large wheels, and powerful steam engine made it an ideal choice for transporting heavy loads over challenging terrain. The Pendle Lady, with its distinctive red and cream livery, was one such vehicle that left a lasting impression on those who encountered it. As you gaze at this photograph, you can almost hear the rhythmic chugging of the steam engine and feel the vibrations of the vehicle as it moves steadily forward. The landscape around it, dotted with trees and rolling hills, adds to the sense of tranquility and nostalgia. The Pendle Lady, with its proud and regal presence, is a reminder of a bygone era when steam power reigned supreme in the world of transportation. This photograph is a treasure trove of history, transporting us back in time to an age when machines like the Pendle Lady were the backbone of rural and industrial communities. It is a testament to the enduring allure of steam power and the indomitable spirit of the machines that carried us through the 20th century.
