Mason's Automatic Supplies Advert (with young Michael Mason aboard) - The Coin Slot, November 1969
Designed by Leslie Quaintance for Whittaker Brothers, this steam engine made its debut at the Amusement Trades Exhibition in January 1969. It included realistic sound effects and a push button whistle.
Production ceased at the end of 1974 when the engine was replaced by Whittakers' smaller "Puffing Billy" ride.
