I was surprised to see LNER operating in that part of the country- a legacy of the grouping - LNER absorbing NBR. Roger it is your fault I have to keep Googling these things. Years ago I delivered to the Sentinel works, I remember the statue. It must have been owned by Rolls Royce then. The company has a colourful history. It is still going and the history is on their website. The last time I went there part of the site is occupied by a Morrison supermarket, they have some interesting photographs of the Sentinel works in the café. Surprised also to see Sentinel made diesel lorries in the 1950's, I never saw any.
