A brief history of the Vehicle

This ERF was originally used by B.O.A.C. and was adapted by us for showman’s use. It carried a generator on the back, and towed the Ark – it’s known as King George, as the showman’s engine King George VI used to pull the Ark when it was first built in the 1930s.

Now this lorry is used to haul the Autodrome ride.

Coronavirus update

Following the latest advice from the UK government and Public Health England, we are reviewing our upcoming 2020 tour dates. We’re very disappointed that we can’t bring the fun of the fair to you all but we hope to see you soon in 2020 when things settle down.

We will be monitoring the situation and we will update you weekly on our social media, or as soon as the situation changes. You can also find the latest information about our 2020 tour in our blog post which we will keep updated.

Thanks for all your patience while we work through these unpredictable times.

Joby, Georgina and the Carters Team.
