Thistledown, This Aveling and Porter roller at Cadeby belonged to the late Rev Teddy Boston and has as much right as any to be the real model for George. Photo: © Martin Clutterbuck 2004 |
Aveling built the first steam road roller, and his models reached their heydey in the 1920s when they became a common sight on British roads.
George appeared in "Gallant Old Engine" (1962).
