Return of the Castle Firebrick Co. Ltd. steam powered Sentinel to Buckley

Saturday 26.8.2006

This waggon was a familiar sight around the town of Buckley in Flintshire from the date of purchase in 1937 through to its sale by the local brick making company in 1956. The visit was made by kind arrangement between owners Stuart and Chris Gray with the Buckley Society and was the first time the waggon restored to pristine condition had returned to Buckley since its sale. The visit coincided with its attendance at the Shrewsbury Steam Fair at Onslow Park.
